RESUMEN
Introducción: Algunos autores han demostrado incremento de células neuroendócrinas en colitis microscópica y colitis ulcerativa. Objetivo: El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar la presencia de células neuroendócrinas en colitis linfocítica, colitis colagenosa y colitis ulcerativa en comparación a controles. Materiales y métodos: Se usó inmunohistoquímica para identificar a las células neuroendócrinas a través del marcador cromogranina A. El estudio incluyó 10 casos de cada diagnóstico de colitis linfocítica, colitis colagenosa y colitis ulcerativa. Resultados: Se encontró diferencia estadísticamente significativa en el conteo de células neuroendocrinas en colitis linfocítica (p=0,019104) y colitis ulcerativa en comparación con los controles (p=0,0077). En colitis colagenosa, se encontró un incremento de células neuroendocrinas pero no pudimos demostrar diferencias estadísticamente significativa. Conclusión: Se demostró hiperplasia de células neuroendocrinas en colitis linfocítica y colitis ulcerativa, lo que confirma lo reportado por los pocos estudios anteriores realizados sobre el tema.
Introduction: Some authors have found increase of neuroendocrine cells in microscopic colitis and ulcerative colitis. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the presence of neuroendocrine cells in ulcerative colitis and lymphocytic colitis and collagenous colitis. Materials and methods: Immunohistochemistry was performed to identify neuroendocrine cells through marker chromogranin A (CgA). The study included 10 cases of each diagnosis of Lymphocytic colitis, collagenous colitis and ulcerative colitis. Results: There was statistically significant difference in the count of neuroendocrine cells, between lymphocytic colitis and control (p=0.019104), and between ulcerative colitis and controls (p=0.0077). In collagenous colitis there was an increase in neuroendocrine cells but we failed to find statistical differences. Conclusion: We could observe neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia in lymphocytic colitis and ulcerative colitis compared with controls, which confirm previous studies.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was characterized sin duodenum the heterotopic gastric mucosa. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The slides with the diagnosis of heterotopic gastric mucosa during 2014-2015, were reviewed, and clinical, histological and endoscopic data was to collected for every case. RESULTS: 45 cases of heterotopic gastric mucosa in duodenum were found, 91.1% were located in duodenum bulb and 73.2%, presenting as polyps in 73.2% of cases. In all cases, parietal cell was identified as main criteria for the diagnosis. Neither Helicobacter pylori nor dysplasia were identified. CONCLUSIONS: Our data confirm its non neoplastic nature. Heterotopic gastric mucosa should be taken into account in diagnosis of duodenal polyps. Parietal cells identification in duodenal mucosa is essential in differential diagnosis with peptic duodenitis.

Introducción: Colitis linfocítica y enteritis microscópica son causas relativamente comunes de diarrea crónica y ambas se caracterizan por un infiltrado linfocitico intraepitelial. No existen reportes previos de la coexistencia de ambas entidades. Objetivo: Describir las características clínicas e histológicas de los pacientes que presentan este diagnóstico simultáneamente. Material y métodos: Se seleccionaron pacientes adultos con diarrea crónica que tuvieran biopsia simultánea de colon y duodeno tomados el mismo día, durante los años 2010-2016, en el Servicio de Gastroenterología del Hospital Nacional Daniel Alcides Carrión. Se recopiló información clínica del archivo de historias. Las láminas fueron reevaluadas histológicamente por 3 patólogos. Se realizó estudio inmunohistoquímico de linfocitos intraepiteliales para CD8 y CD3 en 6 casos. Resultados: De 63 pacientes con diarrea crónica y biopsia simultánea de duodeno y colon, se identificó un total de 35 pacientes (55,5%) con diagnóstico simultáneo de enteritis microscópica y colitis linfocítica, 80% fueron mujeres. Se identificó anemia en 28,5% de los pacientes e infestación por Blastocystis hominis en el 31,8.%. En enteritis microscópica, el promedio de linfocitos intraepiteliales con CD8 y CD3 fue 40%, mientras que, en colitis linfocítica, el promedio fue de 37,2% para CD3 y 29,2% para CD8. En 11 de los 35 casos, se pudo obtener biopsias de íleon que fueron diagnosticadas como ileitis linfocítica. En 9 casos se diagnosticó colitis eosinofílica asociada a colitis linfocítica. Conclusión: Se encontró coexistencia de colitis linfocítica, enteritis microscópica y en algunos de ileitis linfocítica en un 55,5% pacientes con diarrea crónica con biopsia duodenal y colónica. Estos resultados abren la interrogante sobre si colitis linfocítica y enteritis microscópica son entidades diferentes o constituyen una sola patología que en algunos pacientes afecta varios segmentos del tubo digestivo.
Introduction: Lymphocytic colitis and microscopic enteritis are relatively common causes of chronic diarrhea and it is characterized by an intraepithelial lymphocytic infiltrate. There have been no previous reports of coexistence between these 2 pathologies. Objective: To describe histological and clinical characteristic in patients with coexistence of lymphocytic colitis and microscopic enteritis. Material and methods: All cases with simultaneous diagnosis of lymphocytic duodenosis and lymphocytic colitis were reevaluated during lapse time 2010-2016 in hospital Daniel Carrion. The slides were reviewed by 3 pathologists and clinical information was obtained from clinical records. Expression of CD3 and CD8 was detected in 6 cases by immunohistochemical assays. Results: A total of 35 patients with coexistence of lymphocytic duodenitis and lymphocytic colitis were selected of the pathology archives, 80% were females, Anemia was identified in 28.5% of patients. Blastocysitis hominis infestation was identified in 31.8%. The mean intraepithelial lymphocyte CD8 and CD3 positive was 40% in microscopic enteritis, while the mean intraepithelial lymphocyte CD3 positive was 37.2% and CD8 positive was 29.2% Additionally, lymphocytic ileitis was diagnosed in 11 of our cases. Eosinophilic colitis was diagnosed in 9 cases of lymphocytic colitis Conclusion: We found that lymphocytic colitis, microscopic enteritis and even lymphocytic ileitis can coexist in a group of patients with chronic diarrhea. These findings bring the question if this concurrence of both pathologies constituted a more generalized gastrointestinal disorder, involving both the large and the small intestines.

Objetivo: Caracterizar la mucosa gástrica heterotópica en duodeno en nuestro medio. Materiales y métodos: Se seleccionaron dos instituciones, los casos de mucosa gástrica heterotópica que cumplieran los criterios histológicos establecidos para el diagnóstico durante los años 2014-2015. Las láminas con el diagnóstico de mucosa gástrica heterotópica en duodeno fueron revisadas por 3 patólogos, se recolectó información clínica, endoscópica e histológica en cada caso. Resultados: Se encontraron 45 casos de mucosa gástrica heterotópica en duodeno, 91,1% se localizaron en bulbo duodenal y 73,2% se presentaron endoscópicamente como pólipos. En todos los casos se identificó células parietales como criterio para hacer el diagnóstico histopatológico, en ningún caso se identificó Helicobacter pylori ni displasia en la biopsia duodenal. Conclusiones: Nuestros datos confirman su naturaleza benigna. El diagnóstico de mucosa gástrica heterotópica, aunque infrecuente, debe tenerse en cuenta en el estudio de pólipos duodenales, siendo la identificación de células parietales en mucosa duodenal fundamental para el diagnóstico diferencial histológico especialmente con la metaplasia gástrica de duodenitis péptica

UNLABELLED: There is a group of enteropathies recently known as seronegative villous atrophy (SNVA), which can simulate celiac disease. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to describe histological and immunohistochemical differences between a group of Celiac disease and SNVA patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Microscopy reexamination and Immunohistochemistry study were performed for a group of 15 celiac patients and 19 SNVA patients. Histological features as severe atrophy, crypt hyperplasia, plasma cells number, eosinophils number, neutrophils presence were studied; CD4, CD8, CD3, and CD56 markers were studied through immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: There was a significant difference between the frequency of observation of crypt hyperplasia (p=0.0348) and plasma cells (p=0.0348) in celiac disease patients than SNVA patients. In celiac disease was bigger. The number and distribution of CD 8, CD4 and CD56 lymphocytes was similar in both groups. The percentage of CD3 positive intraepithelial lymphocytes (p=0.0144) was higher in SNVA. CONCLUSION: Histological and immunohistochemical evaluation shows more similarities than differences. The differences found in this study suggest more humoral immune response in celiac disease than in SNVA.

Existe un grupo de enteropatía conocidas como AVSN que pueden simular enfermedad celíaca. Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio es describir los hallazgos histológicos y de inmunohistoquímica en pacientes con enfermedad celíaca y AVSN. Material y métodos: 15 biopsias de pacientes con enfermedad celíaca y 19 biopsias con AVSN fueron reexaminados. Se estudió características histológicas tales como atrofia severa, hiperplasia de criptas, número de células plasmáticas, número de eosinófilos y presencia de neutrófilos. Asimismo, a través de inmunohistoquímica se estudió la presencia de linfocitos CD4, CD8, CD3, CD56. Resultados: Se encontró diferencia significativa en la mayor presencia de hiperplasia de criptas (p=0,0348) y mayor número de células plasmáticas (p=0,0348) en las biopsias de enfermedad celíaca que en las catalogadas como AVSN. El número de linfocitos CD8, CD4, CD56 y su distribución fue similar en ambos grupos. El porcentaje de linfocitos intraepiteliales CD3 positivos (p=0,0144) fue mayor en pacientes con AVSN. Conclusión: Los hallazgos histológicos e inmunohistoquímicos muestran más similitudes que diferencias. La diferencia hallada en nuestro estudio sugiere mayor respuesta inmune humoral en pacientes con enfermedad celiaca que en AVSN...
