ABSTRACT

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The radical change in the treatment of breast cancer has promoted the necessity for more comprehensive training of the professionals involved, ensuring the preservation of oncological safety while also allowing for cosmetic interventions to benefit breast cancer survivors. The aim of this study was to present the methods employed in the training of breast surgeons, highlighting the importance of oncoplasty and breast reconstruction. METHODS: A literature review was conducted in two databases, identifying articles related to medical education in the context of oncoplastic surgery and breast reconstruction. We also assessed the Brazilian experience in oncoplastic centers. RESULTS: The basis for educational discussions was derived from 16 articles. We observed approaches that included hands-on courses utilizing simulator models, porcine models, cadaver labs, and fellowship programs. Positive outcomes were observed in Brazil, a fact based on seven oncoplasty training centers for senior mastologists and five training centers for junior mastologists. From 2009 to 2023, an estimated 452 seniors and 42 juniors received training, representing approximately 30% of mastologists in Brazil who have acquired training and experience in oncoplasty. CONCLUSION: Despite the limited number of publications on training methods, oncoplastic centers have made significant progress in Brazil, establishing a successful model that can be replicated in other countries.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To compare the medical image interpretation's time between the conventional and automated methods of breast ultrasound in patients with breast lesions. Secondarily, to evaluate the agreement between the two methods and interobservers. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with prospective data collection. The agreement's degrees were established in relation to the breast lesions's ultrasound descriptors. To determine the accuracy of each method, a biopsy of suspicious lesions was performed, considering the histopathological result as the diagnostic gold standard. Results: We evaluated 27 women. Conventional ultrasound used an average medical time of 10.77 minutes (± 2.55) greater than the average of 7.38 minutes (± 2.06) for automated ultrasound (p<0.001). The degrees of agreement between the methods ranged from 0.75 to 0.95 for researcher 1 and from 0.71 to 0.98 for researcher 2. Among the researchers, the degrees of agreement were between 0.63 and 1 for automated ultrasound and between 0.68 and 1 for conventional ultrasound. The area of the ROC curve for the conventional method was 0.67 (p=0.003) for researcher 1 and 0.72 (p<0.001) for researcher 2. The area of the ROC curve for the automated method was 0. 69 (p=0.001) for researcher 1 and 0.78 (p<0.001) for researcher 2. Conclusion: We observed less time devoted by the physician to automated ultrasound compared to conventional ultrasound, maintaining accuracy. There was substantial or strong to perfect interobserver agreement and substantial or strong to almost perfect agreement between the methods.

ABSTRACT

Abstract In this integrative review, we aimed to describe the records of time devoted by physicians to breast ultrasound in a review of articles in the literature, in order to observe whether the automation of the method enabled a reduction in these values. We selected articles from the Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS) and MEDLINE databases, through Virtual Health Library (BVS), SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online), PubMed, and Scopus. We obtained 561 articles, and, after excluding duplicates and screening procedures, 9 were selected, whose main information related to the guiding question of the research was synthesized and analyzed. It was concluded that the automation of breast ultrasound represents a possible strategy for optimization of the medical time dedicated to the method, but this needs to be better evaluated in comparative studies between both methods (traditional and automated), with methodology directed to the specific investigation of this potentiality.


Resumo Na presente revisão integrativa, objetivamos descrever os registros de tempo dedicado pelos médicos à ultrassonografia mamária em revisão de artigos da literatura, visando observar se a automação do método possibilitou redução destes valores. Selecionamos artigos nas bases de dados Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e MEDLINE, através da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), PubMed e Scopus. Obtivemos 561 artigos e, após a exclusão de artigos duplicados e procedimentos de triagem, foram selecionados 9 artigos, cujas informações principais relativas à pergunta norteadora da pesquisa foram sintetizadas e analisadas. Foi concluído que a automação da ultrassonografia mamária representa uma possível estratégia de otimização do tempo médico dedicado ao método; porém, essa conclusão necessita ser melhor avaliada em estudos comparativos entre ambos os métodos (tradicional e automatizado), com metodologia direcionada à investigação específica desta potencialidade.

ABSTRACT

The Köebner phenomenon is characterized by the appearance of several types of dermatological lesions after traumatic stimulation. The triggering of this phenomenon after breast surgery is uncommon and usually associated with psoriatic lesions. The aim of this study was to describe two cases of vitiligo as the initial manifestation of Köebner phenomenon after breast oncoplastic surgery. Case 1: female, 41 years old, no history of dermatological pathologies, presenting with tubular carcinoma in the right breast. Quadrantectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy were performed, followed by reconstruction with mammoplasty. Later, the patient started on tamoxifen and underwent radiotherapy, without complications. Thirty days after treatment, the patient presented progressive depigmentation of the areola-papillary complex. Topical treatment was started with dermatological ointment tacrolimus monohydrate and, after one year, the condition was completely resolved. Case 2: 52-yearold woman with previous history of vitiligo on the face, with complete clinical response after dermatological treatment. She was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ on the left breast and underwent quadrantectomy, by means of mammoplasty using the round block technique. Afterwards, she underwent radiotherapy and started tamoxifen. Four years after the surgery, she developed dyschromia in the ipsilateral periareolar region and was diagnosed with vitiligo. Local dermopigmentation was offered, but the patient opted for an expectant conduct and clinical follow-up. To our knowledge, this is the first description of Köebner phenomenon after breast oncoplastic surgery. In these cases, the therapeutic approach must be multidisciplinary and count on the assessment of multiple clinical and individual parameters.

ABSTRACT

Plagiarism in scientific publications is a topic of fundamental importance and rarely addressed in the literature. It is associated with ethical issues that go beyond research itself, a fact that values the discussion on the topic. The concept, the main types of plagiarism, ethical relationships, preventive methodologies aiming to minimize their occurrence, diagnostic methodologies, and potential penalties involved are discussed. Every researcher and team involved in publishing articles should be aware of the importance and relevance of not plagiarizing, since being cautious about it is essential to build a solid curriculum on the part of the researcher, and credibility on the part of scientific journals.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To compare the reproducibility of different methods for assessing the cosmetic outcome of breast reconstruction, which was assessed by different health professionals. Methods: Photographs of 270 breast cancer patients who had been submitted to breast reconstruction of some type were included. A plastic surgeon, a resident in plastic surgery, two mastologists, two residents in mastology, and two psychologists performed the evaluation. The modified Garbay and Harvard scales and the objective BCCT. core software program were used. Cohen's Kappa and Spearman correlation coefficients were calculated. Results: The mean age of the patients was 55.7 (±11.1) years. Overall, 145 women (53.7%) underwent partial breast reconstruction and 125 (46.3%), total breast reconstruction. The mean follow-up time was 63.7±45.6 months. By applying the Harvard scale, the interobserver reproducibility among the different professionals was minimal; whereas the Garbay scale had no agreement. The correlations between the BCCT.core software program and the Harvard and modified Garbay scales were moderate. Conclusion: Correlations between both the modified Garbay scale and the Harvard scale and the objective (BCCT.core) test were moderate. There was less interobserver variability with the Harvard scale compared to the modified Garbay scale.


Objetivo: Comparar a reprodutibilidade de métodos diferentes de avaliação dos resultados estéticos de cirurgias reconstrutivas da mama, por avaliadores distintos. Métodos: Foram incluídas fotografias de 270 pacientes portadoras de neoplasia da mama que passaram por cirurgias reconstrutivas da mama. As notas da avaliação foram dadas por um cirurgião plástico, um residente em cirurgia plástica, dois mastologistas, dois residentes em mastologia e dois psicólogos. Foram utilizadas as escalas de Harvard e Garbay modificada e a nota objetiva do programa BCCT.core. Foram calculados os índice Kappa de concordância interobservador e de correlação de Spearman. Resultados: A média de idade das pacientes foi de 55,7 anos (±11,1). No geral, 145 (53,7%) mulheres foram submetidas a tratamento conservador com cirurgia oncoplástica e 125 (46,3%) passaram por mastectomia e reconstrução total. A média de tempo de seguimento foi de 63,7±45,6 meses. Para a escala de Harvard, houve uma reprodutibilidade interobservador razoável para os diferentes profissionais, enquanto na escala de Garbay, a reprodutibilidade foi pobre entre os profissionais. De forma geral, a nota dada pelo programa BCCT.core correlacionou-se moderadamente com a escala de Harvard e a de Garbay modificada. Conclusão: As escalas de Harvard e de Garbay modificada correlacionam-se igualmente de forma moderada com o teste objetivo (BCCT.core). A escala de Harvard tem menor variabilidade interobservador, se comparada com a escala de Garbay.

ABSTRACT

RESUMO Objetivo: avaliar o perfil de segurança e os resultados estéticos do 2-octilcianoacrilato versus sutura intradérmica com fio de nylon em cirurgias mamárias. Métodos: ensaio clínico randomizado, aberto, que avaliou a ocorrência de complicações, como deiscência, hematoma, infecção e reações alérgicas após o uso do 2-octilcianoacrilato ou do fio de nylon. Também foi analisado o tamanho das incisões, o tempo de fechamento da pele e o tempo cirúrgico total. O resultado estético foi avaliado após 40 e 180 dias da cirurgia, por meio da largura média da ferida operatória e por avaliação subjetiva conceitual (ótimo, bom, razoável ou ruim). Resultados: foram incluídas 79 pacientes, sendo 37 no grupo 2-octilcianoacrilato e 42 no grupo de sutura com fio de nylon. O estudo foi interrompido antes do término do recrutamento dos pacientes pela ocorrência de maior número de deiscências no grupo do adesivo (OR: 11,42; IC95%: 1,36-96,02; p=0,007). Em relação às demais complicações analisadas, ao tempo cirúrgico e ao resultado estético no pós-operatório, não se observaram diferenças significativas entre os grupos. A média do tamanho da ferida operatória foi maior no grupo do adesivo em relação ao grupo da sutura, mas não houve correlação entre o tamanho da ferida e o maior número de deiscências. Conclusão: o 2-octilcianoacrilato apresentou maior risco de deiscência em relação à sutura intradérmica, com resultados estéticos equivalentes.


ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the safety profile and aesthetic results of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate versus intradermal nylon suture in breast surgeries. Methods: an open-label, randomized, clinical trial evaluating the occurrence of complications, such as dehiscence, hematoma, infection, and allergic reactions after the use of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate or nylon thread. The size of the incisions, skin closure time, and total surgical time were also analyzed. The aesthetic outcome was evaluated at 40 and 180 days after surgery, by means of the average width of the surgical wound and by subjective conceptual assessment (optimal, good, reasonable, or poor). Results: 79 patients were included: 37 in the 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate group and 42 in the nylon suture group. The study was stopped before the end of patient recruitment due to the occurrence of a greater number of dehiscences in the adhesive group (OR: 11.42; 95%CI: 1.36-96.02; p=0.007). Regarding the other analyzed complications, the surgical duration and postoperative aesthetic result, no significant differences were observed between the groups. The mean operative wound size was greater in the adhesive group than in the suture group, but there was no correlation between wound size and the largest number of dehiscences. Conclusion: while the cosmetic outcomes with the two techniques were similar, there was a greater risk of dehiscence with the use of 2-octyl-cyanoacrylate compared to intradermal suturing.

ABSTRACT

Needles embedded in the breast are an unusual situation. It is reported the possibility of developing an abscess and the risk of migration of the needles. We report the case of a 38 year old woman with approximately 25 needles inserted in her breasts, bilaterally. According to the patient, the insertion occurred during the episode of a recent physical aggression; however, the hypothesis of self-mutilation could not be ruled out. She also referred the withdrawal of some needles at home and tried a surgical resection of others. Physical examination of the breasts revealed bilateral bruising, located in the upper inner quadrant of the left breast and diffusely in the right breast. Ultrasound examination showed needles in both breasts, associated with a hyperechoic area between 5 and 6h of the right breast, corresponding to palpable clinical area. An X-ray and chest tomography also revealed the presence of several needles in the breasts. At mammography, multiple intra-mammary needles and lymph nodes were diffusely distributed through the parenchyma, bilaterally. After discussing with the patient about the diagnosis and therapeutic options, we opted for clinical follow-up. Currently, the patient has moderate acyclic mastalgia, and is on clinical follow up for 55 months


Agulhas inseridas no parênquima mamário constituem uma situação incomum, podendo haver ocorrência de abscessos e o risco de migração das agulhas. Descrevemos o caso de uma paciente do sexo feminino, de 38 anos de idade, diagnosticada com aproximadamente 25 agulhas de costura em suas mamas, bilateralmente. Segundo a paciente, a inserção ocorreu durante episódio de agressão física recente; porém, a hipótese de automutilação não pôde ser descartada. A paciente também referiu a retirada domiciliar de algumas agulhas e a tentativa de retirada em outro Serviço. Ao exame físico das mamas, evidenciava-se equimose bilateral, localizada no quadrante súpero-medial da mama esquerda e difusamente na mama direita. O exame ultrassonográfico evidenciou agulhas em ambas as mamas, associadas à área hiperecoica entre 5 e 6h da mama direita, correspondente a área clínica palpável. A radiografia e a tomografia de tórax visibilizaram a presença de vários corpos estranhos nas mamas, de aspecto metálico, compatíveis com agulhas. Após discussão com a paciente acerca do diagnóstico e das opções terapêuticas, optou-se por conduta expectante. Após 55 meses, a paciente refere mastalgia acíclica moderada e mantém seguimento clínico no Serviço

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Breast cancer conservative surgical treatment has become standard procedure as it reduces mutilation and preserves the body self-image. Advances in adjuvancy have increased its indications for larger tumors, and recent studies have been demonstrating its safety in locally advanced cases. Objective: To evaluate the role of oncoplastic surgery in the conservative surgical treatment of locally advanced breast cancer. Method: This is a systematic review. Out of the 523 studies found in the PubMed electronic database published between 2012 and 2017 using the keywords "breast cancer" and "oncoplastic surgery", we selected 12 that dealt specifically with the topic. Results: No randomized trial was found. Most series were retrospective. The average initial tumor size ranged between 40 and 67.0 mm. The conversion rate from mastectomy to conservative treatment varied from 34 to 72.3%. Wise pattern was the most used technique. Oncoplastic surgery produced a greater amount of excised breast tissue. The oncoplastic technique did not differ from the standard conservative treatment concerning positive margins. Oncoplastic techniques showed higher rates of surgical complications but did not delay adjuvancy. Locoregional recurrence and overall survival ranged from 0 to 14.6% and 76.7 to 86.6%, respectively. Patients considered the cosmetic results acceptable in 84 to 92.3% of the cases. Conclusion: Oncoplastic surgical techniques allow a higher rate of breast conservation in locally advanced cancer, without apparent compromise of oncological safety.


Introdução: O tratamento cirúrgico conservador do câncer de mama se tornou o tratamento padrão por reduzir a mutilação e preservar a autoimagem corporal. Os avanços na adjuvância ampliaram as indicações para tumores maiores e novos trabalhos vêm demostrando segurança nos casos localmente avançados. Objetivo: Avaliar o papel da cirurgia oncoplástica no tratamento cirúrgico conservador do câncer de mama localmente avançado. Métodos: Revisão sistemática. Entre os 523 trabalhos encontrados na base de dados eletrônica PubMed entre 2012 e 2017 utilizando as palavras-chave "breast cancer" e "oncoplastic surgery", foram selecionados 12 trabalhos que tratavam especificamente do tema. Resultados: Nenhum estudo randomizado foi encontrado. As maiores séries foram retrospectivas. A média de tamanho tumoral inicial variou entre 40 e 67,0 mm. A taxa de conversão de mastectomia para tratamento conservador variou de 34 a 72,3%. Wise pattern foi a técnica mais utilizada. Foi observada maior quantidade de ressecção de tecido mamário quando a cirurgia oncoplástica foi realizada. Não foi observada diferença em relação ao comprometimento de margem quando se comparou a técnica oncoplástica com o tratamento conservador padrão. Técnicas oncoplásticas apresentaram maiores índices de complicações cirúrgicas, porém isso não acarretou atraso na adjuvância. A recorrência locorregional e a sobrevida global variaram de 0 a 14,6% e de 76,7 a 86,6%, respectivamente. Os resultados cosméticos foram considerados aceitáveis pelas pacientes em 84 a 92,3% dos casos. Conclusões: Técnicas cirúrgicas oncoplásticas permitem maior taxa de conservação da mama no cenário do câncer localmente avançado, sem aparente comprometimento da segurança oncológica

ABSTRACT

Introduction: There is a growing interest in, and an increasing demand for, oncoplastic (OP) and reconstructive surgery training by breast surgeons. However, until now there has been a lack of a specific model for training in this field in most countries and no data with respect to learning curves. Mastology has been a medical specialty in Brazil since 1978. It is fully dedicated to studying, preventing, diagnosing, and managing all diseases of the breast. Incorporation of OP and reconstructive surgery in Mastology presents a number of challenges, and there are some controversial issues to overcome. Objective: The purpose of this study, therefore, was to analyze how OP and reconstructive techniques are being incorporated into surgical training in Mastology in Brazil. Methods: A specific survey was designed to cover all surgical residents who concluded their regular program in Mastology in Brazil in 2015 and 2016. Results: One hundred twenty-four residents from 49 breast units were included, with the majority having their training for all 2 years of their residence, as recommended by the Brazilian Society of Mastology. In addition, most of the respondents were able to perform partial breast reconstructions and reconstructions using expanders and implants, but 20% of them had a lack of specific training in these techniques. Conclusion: As adequate local control of disease and quality of life are related to surgical decisions, it is expected that breast surgeons expand their limits and responsibilities in order improve the reality of most breast cancer patients.


Introdução: Existe um interesse e uma demanda crescente de treinamento oncoplástico (OP) e cirurgia reconstrutiva por cirurgiões de mama. No entanto, até agora tem faltado um modelo específico de treinamento neste campo na maioria dos países, sem dados com relação à curva de aprendizado. A Mastologia tem sido uma especialidade médica no Brasil desde 1978. É totalmente dedicada a estudar, prevenir, diagnosticar e gerenciar todas as doenças da mama. A incorporação de OP e cirurgia reconstrutiva na Mastologia apresenta uma série de desafios, e há algumas questões controversas a serem superadas. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo, portanto, foi analisar como a OP e as técnicas reconstrutivas estão sendo incorporadas no treinamento cirúrgico em Mastologia no Brasil. Métodos: uma pesquisa específica foi projetada para cobrir todos os residentes cirúrgicos que concluíram seu programa regular em Mastologia no Brasil em 2015 e 2016. Resultados: Foram incluídos 124 residentes de 49 unidades mamárias, com a maioria treinada durante todos os 2 anos de residência, conforme recomendado pela Sociedade Brasileira de Mastologia. Além disso, a maioria dos entrevistados foi capaz de realizar reconstruções e reconstruções mamárias parciais usando expansores e implantes. Mas ainda 20% deles apresentaram falta de treinamento específico nestas técnicas. Conclusão: uma vez que o controle local adequado da doença e da qualidade de vida está relacionado às decisões cirúrgicas, espera-se que os cirurgiões de mama ampliem seus limites e responsabilidades para melhorar a realidade da maioria dos pacientes com câncer de mama.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: This randomized clinical trial evaluated the possibility of not draining the axilla following axillary dissection. METHODS: The study included 240 breast cancer patients who underwent axillary dissection as part of conservative treatment. The patients were divided into two groups depending on whether or not they were subjected to axillary drainage. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01267552. RESULTS: The median volume of fluid aspirated was significantly lower in the axillary drainage group (0.00 ml; 0.00 - 270.00) compared to the no drain group (522.50 ml; 130.00 - 1148.75). The median number of aspirations performed during conservative breast cancer treatment was significantly lower in the drainage group (0.5; 0.0 - 4.0) compared to the no drain group (5.0; 3.0 - 7.0). The total volume of serous fluid produced (the volume of fluid obtained from drainage added to the volume of aspirated fluid) was similar in the two groups. Regarding complications, two cases (2.4%) of wound dehiscence occurred in the drainage group compared to 13 cases (13.5%) in the group in which drainage was not performed, with this difference being statistically significant. Rates of infection, necrosis and hematoma were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION: Safety rates were similar in both study groups; hence, axillary dissection can feasibly be performed without drainage. However, more needle aspirations could be required, and there could be more cases of wound dehiscence in patients who do not undergo auxiliary drainage.

ABSTRACT

Summary Introduction: Methylene blue is more widely available and less expensive than patent blue, with an apparently lower risk of anaphylaxis. Objective: The two dyes were compared regarding detection of the sentinel lymph node (SLN). Method: A prospective, randomized trial involved 142 patients with invasive breast carcinoma. Sixty-nine (49.3%) assigned to patent blue (group A) and 71 (50.70%) to methylene blue (group B). Thirty-five patients (25.0%) were clinical stage III or IV; 55 (38.7%) had axillary lymph nodes affected; and 69 (49.3%) underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Two patients were excluded because the dye type was not recorded. Results: Patients and tumor characteristics were similar in both groups. SLNs were identified in 47 women (68.1%) in group A and 43 (60.6%) in group B (p=0.35). SLNs were affected in 22 cases (51.2%) in group A and 21 (48.8%) in group B (p=0.62). The SLN was the only node affected in 12 cases (54.5%) in group A and six (33.3%) in group B (p=0.18). The time and degree of difficulty involved in identifying the SLN were similar in both groups. There were no complications or allergies. Conclusion: Methylene blue performed as well as patent blue in identifying the SLN in breast cancer patients.


Resumo Introdução: O azul de metileno é mais facilmente encontrado para comercialização e a um preço menor que o azul patente. Parece ainda haver menor risco de anafilaxia. Objetivo: Comparar a taxa de detecção do linfonodo sentinela com o azul patente e com o azul de metileno. Método: Foram incluídas, de forma randomizada e prospectiva, 142 pacientes com diagnóstico de carcinoma mamário invasor, que consentiram em participar livremente do estudo. Foram injetados 2 mL de azul patente (grupo A) em 69 (49,3%) mulheres e de azul de metileno (grupo B) em 71 (50,70%), em localização periareolar ou peritumoral, seguido de 5 minutos de massagem. Trinta e cinco (25,0%) apresentavam estadiamento clínico 3 ou 4, e 55 (38,7%) apresentavam a axila clinicamente comprometida. Sessenta e nove (49,3%) fizeram quimioterapia neoadjuvante. Duas pacientes não tinham anotação do corante utilizado e foram excluídas. Resultados: Os dois grupos apresentaram características das pacientes e dos tumores semelhantes. Foram detectados linfonodos sentinela em 47 (68,1%) mulheres no grupo A e em 43 (60,6%) no grupo B (p=0,35). Havia linfonodos sentinela comprometidos em 22 (51,2%) casos no grupo A e em 21 (48,8%) casos no grupo B (p=0,62). O linfonodo sentinela foi o único gânglio comprometido em 12 (54,5%) casos no grupo A e em seis (33,3%) casos no grupo B (p=0,18). O tempo e o grau de dificuldade para identificação do linfonodo sentinela foram semelhantes nos dois grupos. Não houve relato de complicações ou de alergia em nenhum dos grupos. Conclusão: A utilização do azul de metileno para a identificação do linfonodo sentinela em pacientes com câncer de mama apresenta resultados semelhantes aos do azul patente.

ABSTRACT

A cirurgia oncoplástica e reconstrutiva da mama é parte importante do tratamento do câncer de mama, porém, faltam profissionais bem treinados e dedicados. Objetivo: Avaliar a eficácia do Programa de Educação Continuada Teórico-Prática em Oncoplastia e Reconstrução Mamária da Sociedade Brasileira de Mastologia no Hospital Araújo Jorge (HAJ), em Goiânia. Métodos: O programa foi divido em 10 módulos mensais de 24 horas, com 25% de teoria e 75% de cirurgias. As atividades foram coordenadas por dois professores locais e dois convidados. A avaliação do programa foi medida por meio de um questionário on-line respondido pelos alunos. A análise estatística foi realizada no SPSS®, sendo significativo um p<0,05. Resultados: Participaram como alunos 12 mastologistas, com 42,92 (±10,27) anos de média de idade. Foram realizados 213 procedimentos em 88 pacientes, abrangendo as principais técnicas de reconstrução mamária. Todos os alunos declararam-se satisfeitos e indicariam o curso a outros colegas. Ao início, a maioria dos alunos tinha apenas alguma experiência em reconstruções parciais com retalhos locais. Metade dos alunos referia dificuldades em conseguir outro colega que fizesse as reconstruções. Ao fim, a maioria dos alunos estava segura em realizar reconstruções parciais ou totais da mama, com retalhos locais, mamoplastias, lipoenxertia, expansores e próteses. A maioria estava segura para resolver suas complicações. Mais de um terço dos alunos estava seguro em realizar reconstruções com retalhos miocutâneos. Todos disseram estar interessados em continuar o aprimoramento técnico reconstrutivo de diferentes modos. Conclusão: O curso beneficiou as pacientes e contribuiu para a formação dos mastologistas participantes.


Oncoplastic and reconstructive surgery is an important part of the treatment of breast cancer. However,there is a lack of well trained and dedicated professionals. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a Hands On Educational Program in Oncoplasty and Breast Reconstruction of the Brazilian Society of Mastology at the Hospital Araújo Jorge (HAJ), in Goiânia. Methods: The program was divided into 10 monthly 24-hour modules, with 25% of theory and 75% of surgery. Activities were coordinated by two local and two invited teachers. The effectiveness was measured via an on-line questionnaire. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS®. It was significant a p<0.05. Results: Twelve mastologists participated, with a mean age of 42.92 (±10.27). They performed 213 procedures in 88 patients, using the main techniques for breast reconstruction. All students declared themselves satisfied with the course and they would indicate it to others. At the beginning, most students had some experience in local flaps. Half of the students referred trouble in finding other colleagues that could perform the reconstructions. At the end, most students declared themselves comfortable to perform partial or total reconstruction of the breast with local flaps, mammaplasties, fat grafting, expanders and implants. Most of them were comfortable to resolve their own complications. More than a third was safe in performing miocutaneous flaps. All mastologists said to be interested in continuing technical improvement in different ways. Conclusion: The current program in Goiânia benefited many patients and brought a great contribution to the training of the participants.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Apesar do grande número de publicações em cirurgia oncoplástica e reconstrutiva da mama, diversas questões permanecem controversas. Assim, o objetivo desta Reunião de Consenso, foi desenvolver um guia prático de recomendações baseadas nas melhores evidências disponíveis na literatura. Método: Os painelistas foram os membros da Comissão de Cirurgia Oncoplástica e Reconstrutiva da Sociedade Brasileira de Mastologia. A reunião foi realizada em agosto de 2015 em Bento Gonçalves (RS). Cada painelista recebeu e respondeu previamente um questionário com 46 itens, com base na melhor evidencia cientifica e em sua experiência. Foi considerado consenso a concordância de 75% entre painelistas. Resultados: Houve consenso em 25 itens, dos quais para oito houve concordância de 100%. O mais importantes foram: comprometimento das margens em cirurgia oncoplástica pode ser resolvido com ampliação de margens na maioria dos casos; tumores multifocais não são contraindicação para cirurgia oncoplástica; idade >70 anos não representa contraindicação para uso de técnicas oncoplásticas; reconstrução imediata pode ser indicada com segurança para a maioria das candidatas à mastectomia; pacientes com indicação de radioterapia pós-mastectomia podem ser submetidas à reconstrução imediata, devendo ter ciência dos riscos maiores para mau resultado estético; mastectomia com preservação do complexo areolopapilar é segura nos casos de câncer; radioterapia após a mastectomia com preservação do complexo areolopapilar não está indicada fora dos critérios clássicos de irradiação do plastrão; tela abdominal reduz chances de hernia no caso de reconstrução com TRAM. Conclusão: através desta reunião foi possível estabelecer importantes pontos consensuais de acordo com a opinião dos especialistas, que poderão auxiliar os mastologistas na tomada de decisões em cirurgias oncoplásticas e reconstrutivas da mama.


Objective: Despite the large number of publications in oncoplastic and breast reconstructive surgery, several issues remain controversial. The aim of this Consensus Meeting was to develop a practical guide of recommendations based on the best evidence in the literature. Method: All panelists were members of the Oncoplastic Commission of the Brazilian Society of Mastology. The Consensus Meeting was held in Bento Gonçalves (RS), in August 2015. Each panelist received and answered a questionnaire with 46 items, based on the best evidence in the literature and in their expertise. It was considered consensus the agreement of 75% between panelists. Results: There was consensus on 25 items, of which eight were for 100% agreement. The most important of these topics were: involvement of the margins in oncoplastic surgery can be solved by resection of margins in most cases; multifocal tumors is not a contraindication for oncoplastic surgery; age >70 years is not a contraindication for use of oncoplastic techniques; immediate reconstruction can be performed safely to most candidates for mastectomy; patients for post-mastectomy radiotherapy may be subject to immediate reconstruction and should be aware of the risks for poor aesthetic result; mastectomy with preservation of the nipple and areola complex is safe in cancer; radiotherapy after mastectomy with preservation of the nipple and areola complex is not indicated outside the classical criteria of irradiation chest wall; abdominal mash reduces chances of hernia in TRAM flaps. Conclusion: In this meeting it was possible to establish important consensus points according to the opinion of experts, which can help breast surgeons in their decision-making in oncoplastic and reconstructive surgery of the breast.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: avaliar os tipos de tratamentos cirúrgicos para o câncer de mama executados pelo Programa de Mastologia do Hospital das Clinicas da Universidade Federal de Goiás (HC-UFG). MÉTODOS: estudo de coorte transversal no histórico de operações mamárias realizadas no HC-UFG, no período de janeiro de 2002 a dezembro de 2009. Foram avaliados através do boletim cirúrgico: o tempo e o porte cirúrgicos; o cirurgião responsável, o tipo de operação; o diagnóstico, e o tipo de anestesia. Através dos prontuários foram analisados: o laudo anatomopatológico do tumor, o comprometimento linfonodal, o tamanho do tumor primário, o estadiamento e a realização de terapias neoadjuvantes. Foram excluídas as operações realizadas para a retirada de tumores benignos da mama. A variação temporal foi analisada pela regressão de Poisson, considerando a mudança percentual anual (MPA). RESULTADOS: foram realizadas 403 operações de câncer de mama no período estudado, com uma média de 50,38 operações por ano. O tipo histológico mais frequente foi o carcinoma ductal invasor (72,6%). A média de idade das pacientes foi 52 anos, e 29% encontravam-se com doença nos estádios III e IV. A tendência temporal mostrou que houve aumento significativo do tamanho do tumor (p<0,01), dos estadios clínicos III e IV (p=0,01), e de quimioterapia neoadjuvante (p=0,02). Observou-se aumento de mastectomias (MPA=9 casos/ano, p=0,04). Não houve aumento dos casos de tratamentos com conservação mamária, nem de reconstruções imediatas. CONCLUSÃO: nos últimos anos, no HC-UFG, tem ocorrido aumento do número de mastectomias em decorrência do aumento de casos de câncer de mama locorregional avançado.


OBJECTIVE: To assess the types of surgical treatments for breast cancer performed by the Mastology program of the Clinics Hospital, Federal University of Goiás (HC-UFG). METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional, cohort study on the breast operations performed at HC-UFG from January 2002 to December 2009. We evaluated the surgical records for: surgical time and size, surgeon, type of operation, diagnosis, and type of anesthesia. The medical charts were researched for: pathology report of the tumor, lymph node involvement, primary tumor size, staging and performance of neoadjuvant therapies. We excluded operations for the removal of benign breast tumors. The temporal variation was analyzed using Poisson regression, considering the annual percentage change (APC). RESULTS: 403 operations were performed for breast cancer during the study period, with an average of 50.38 operations per year. The most common histological type was invasive ductal carcinoma (72.6%). The mean age of patients was 52 years, and 29% had disease in stages III and IV. The temporal trend revealed a significant increase in tumor size (p <0.01), the clinical stages III and IV (p = 0.01) and the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (p = 0.02). There was increase in mastectomies (APC = 9 cases/year, p = .04). There was no increase in cases of breast conservation treatments or of mastectomies with immediate reconstruction. CONCLUSION: In recent years, the HC-UFG has had an increased number of mastectomies as a result of increased incidence of locoregionally advanced breast cancer.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: avaliar a composição corporal e o perfil lipídico de mulheres com e sem câncer de mama. MÉTODOS: estudo caso-controle pareado por idade, incluindo 62 mulheres, sendo 31 recém-diagnosticadas com câncer de mama e 31 com alterações mamárias benignas. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevista direta, com caracterização sociodemográfica, avaliação da composição corporal por antropometria, incluindo dobras cutâneas (DC) e circunferências, bioimpedância (BIA) e ultrassonografia (USG), além da avaliação do perfil lipídico. Utilizou-se na análise dos dados: Teste de Kolmogorov-smirnov (distribuição normal das variáveis), teste "t" de Student, Qui-quadrado de tendência (U de Mann-Whitney), Qui-quadrado de Pearson, Teste Exato de Fisher e Correção de Yates e "odds ratio". RESULTADOS: comparadas aos controles, mulheres com câncer de mama (casos) apresentaram menor estatura (1,56m±5,68) e (1,59m±6,92), p<0,03; maior porcentagem de gordura corporal, avaliada pela Impedância Bioelétrica (39,87% ±8,26) e (36,00%±6,85), p<0,049; maior dobra cutânea tricipital (27,55mm±8,37 e 22,81mm±5,72; p<0,01), respectivamente. CONCLUSÃO: Mulheres com câncer de mama apresentaram menor estatura, maior porcentagem de gordura corporal e maior dobra cutânea tricipital. Não se observou diferença no Índice de Massa Corporal e na Circunferência da Cintura. Não foi encontrada associação entre o perfil lipídico e a ocorrência de câncer de mama.


OBJECTIVE: To assess body composition and lipid profile of women with and without breast cancer. METHODS: We conducted a case-control study matched by age, including 62 women, 31 being newly diagnosed with breast cancer and 31 with benign breast changes. Data were collected through direct interview, with recording of sociodemographic characteristics, body composition assessment by anthropometry, including skinfolds (DC) and circumference, bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and ultrasonography (USG), as well as lipid profile evaluation. Statistical analysis used: Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (normally distributed variables), "t" test, chi-square test for trend (Mann-Whitney U), chi-square test, Fisher's exact test and Yates correction and "odds ratio". RESULTS: When compared with controls, women with breast cancer (cases) had lower height (1.56 m ± 5.68 versus 1.59 m ± 6.92), p <0.03; higher percentage of body fat, assessed by Bioelectric Impedance (39.87% ± 8.26 versus 36.00% ± 6.85), p <0.049; and higher triceps skinfold thickness (27.55 mm ± 8.37 versus 22.81 ± 5.72 mm; p <0.01), respectively. CONCLUSION: Women with breast cancer had lower height, higher body fat percentage and higher triceps skinfold thickness. There was no difference in body mass index and waist circumference. There was no association between lipid profile and the occurrence of breast cancer.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: This study describes a new means of oncoplastic mammaplasty named the double independent pedicle method. Patients and methods: Between October 2008 and August 2011, eight patients with upper-quadrant tumors of unfavorable proportions were included after signing an informed consent form. The tumors were excised with a macroscopic 2 cm margin. The areola was kept vascularized with a medial or lateral pedicle. An extensive inferocentral pedicle was constructed to fill the defect. Metal clips were emplaced to guide radiotherapy. The contralateral breast symmetry was corrected. Results: The patients' mean age was 49.00 years (±12.59). Mean tumor size was 44.25 mm (±18.25 mm). The median preoperative ptosis was grade 2 (range: 1­3), and it was corrected in all cases. The physician's assessment (from 0 to 10) for breast shape and symmetry was 9.13 (±1.46). All the patients said they were more satisfied with breast shape after surgery. A medial pedicle was chosen in 50% of the cases. Invasive ductal carcinoma was the most common tumor. There was one benign case of pseudoangiomatous hyperplasia. One patient presented a voluminous hematoma, which evolved with partial dehiscence of the suture. There was one case of mild partial areola necrosis. All tumors were resected with free margins, but two patients (25%) underwent mastectomy and reconstruction after the postoperative discovery of multicenter tumors. There was no fat necrosis or recurrence over a period of 26.13 (±11.01) months of follow-up. Conclusions: The technique enabled breast conservation in unfavorable situations, with ptosis correction.


Introdução: este estudo descreve uma nova técnica de mamoplastia oncoplástica chamada duplo pedículo independente. Paciente e métodos: entre outubro de 2008 e agosto de 2011, oito pacientes com tumores de quadrante superiores, de proporções desfavoráveis para a conservação foram incluídas após assinarem um termo de consentimento informado. Os tumores foram excisados com margens macroscópicas de 2cm. A areola foi mantida vascularizada com um pedículo medial ou lateral. Um pedículo inferocentral extenso foi confeccionado para reconstruir o defeito. Clipes metálicos foram colocados para guiar a radioterapia. A mama contralateral foi simetrizada. Resultados: a média da idade das pacientes foi 49,00 anos (±12,59). A média do tamanho do tumor foi 44,25mm (±18,25mm). A mediana da ptose preoperatória foi grau 2 (1-3) e foi corrigida em todos os casos. A nota dada pelo médico (de 0 a 10) para a forma mamária e a simetria foi de 9,13 (±1,46). Todas as pacientes disseram estar mais satisfeitas com o formato da mama após a cirurgia. O pedículo medial foi escolhido em 50% dos casos. O carcinoma ductal invasor foi o tumor mais frequente. Havia um caso de tumor benigno, hiperplasia psudoangiomatosa. Uma paciente apresentou um hematoma volumoso, que evoluiu com deiscência parcial da sutura. Houve um caso de uma pequena necrose parcial da areola. Todos os tumores foram ressecados com margens livres, mas duas pacientes (25%) foram submetidas à mastectomia e reconstrução após a descoberta pós-operatória de tumores multicêntricos. Não houve casos de necrose gordurosa ou recorrência no período de 26,13 (±11,01) meses de seguimento. Conclusões: a técnica possibilitou a conservação mamária em situações desfavoráveis e correção da ptose.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as técnicas utilizadas para o controle do ganho de peso na gestação. Foram selecionados estudos randomizados, publicados entre 2001 e 2011, em língua portuguesa e inglesa, nas bases eletrônicas de dados PubMed, MEDLINE, SciELO e Cochrane. As palavras-chave foram: “ganho de peso”, “dieta”, “gestantes”, “gestação”, “comportamento alimentar” ou “nutrição materna” e suas equivalências na língua inglesa. Os filtros foram humanos, mulheres e ensaios clínicos. Foram excluídos estudos em que as gestantes iniciavam a pesquisa com algum tipo de doença (diabetes, câncer, HIV, hipertensão) ou que apresentavam gestação de gemelares. As principais técnicas aplicadas pelos autores foram a prescrição dietética individualizada, orientações alimentares gerais, consultas frequentes com nutricionista ou médico e a prática de atividade física. Entre os onze artigos selecionados, dez (90,9%) estudos associaram duas ou mais técnicas no Grupo Intervenção, sendo que as mais utilizadas foram as consultas frequentes com os profissionais de saúde e o estímulo à prática de atividade física. Seis (54,5%) estudos foram eficazes no controle do ganho de peso com a associação de duas ou mais técnicas. A associação entre diferentes técnicas e o início precoce das intervenções conseguiu controlar adequadamente o ganho de peso na maioria dos estudos.


The objective of this study was to evaluate the techniques for control of the weight gain during pregnancy. The randomized trials published between 2001 and 2011, in Portuguese or English languages, in electronic databases PubMed, MEDLINE, SciELO and Cochrane were selected. The keywords were: “weight gain”, “diet”, “pregnant women”, “pregnancy”, “maternal nutrition” or “feeding behavior” and their equivalents for the Portuguese language. The filters were human, women and clinical trials. We excluded all studies in pregnant women who had began the research with some type of illness (diabetes, cancer, HIV, hypertension) or who had gemelar pregnancies. The main techniques applied by the authors were individualized dietary prescription, general dietary guidelines, frequent consultations with a nutritionist or doctor, and physical activity. Among the eleven selected articles, ten (90.0%) studies have linked two or more techniques in the Intervention Group and the most frequently used were consultations with health professionals and encouragement for physical activity. Six (54.5%) studies were effective in controlling weight gain with the combination of two or more techniques. The association between different techniques and early interventions could properly control the weight gain in most of the studies.

ABSTRACT

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Excessive gestational weight gain is related to many complications (both maternal and fetal), such as macrosomia. The most common complications in macrosomic fetuses include: increased risk of intrauterine death, need for intensive care, fractures, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, paralysis of the brachial plexus and obesity in childhood and adulthood. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between gestational and fetal weight gain and the incidence of macrosomia in two maternity hospitals. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cohort study in two public maternity hospitals in Goiânia, Brazil. METHODS: This was a cohort study on 200 healthy pregnant women with normal body mass index, divided into two groups: one with normal weight gain and the other with excessive weight gain during pregnancy. RESULTS: The cohorts were similar regarding maternal age, per capita income, schooling level and reproductive behavior. The fetal weight was greater in the cohort with excessive maternal weight gain (3,388.83 g ± 514.44 g) than in the cohort with normal weight (3,175.86 g ± 413.70 g) (P < 0.01). The general incidence of macrosomia was 6.5%: 13.0% (13 cases) in the cohort with excessive maternal weight gain and 0.0% (0 cases) in the cohort with adequate weight gain. CONCLUSION: Excessive maternal weight gain was associated with increased fetal birth weight and incidence of macrosomia.


CONTEXTO E OBJETIVO: O ganho de peso gestacional excessivo está relacionado a inúmeras complicações tanto maternas como fetais, como por exemplo, a macrossomia. Esta, por sua vez, pode aumentar o risco de morte intra-uterina, necessidade de cuidados intensivos, fraturas, hiperbilirrubinemia neonatal, paralisia do plexo braquial e obesidade na infância e fase adulta. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a associação do ganho de peso gestacional com o ganho de peso fetal e a incidência de macrossomia em duas maternidades. TIPO DE ESTUDO E LOCAL: Estudo de coorte em duas maternidades públicas em Goiânia, Brasil. MÉTODOS: Estudo de coorte com 200 gestantes saudáveis com índice de massa corporal normal, divididas em dois grupos, um com ganho de peso adequado e o outro com peso excessivo na gravidez. RESULTADOS: As coortes foram semelhantes quanto à idade materna, renda per capita, escolaridade e comportamento reprodutivo. O peso fetal foi maior na coorte de ganho de peso materno excessivo (3388,83 g ± 514,44 g) do que na de peso normal (3175,86 g ± 413,70 g) (P < 0,01). A incidência geral de macrossomia foi 6,5% sendo de 13,0% (13 casos) na coorte com ganho de peso materno excessivo e de 0,0% (0 casos) na de peso adequado. CONCLUSÃO: O ganho de peso materno excessivo esteve associado ao aumento do peso fetal ao nascer e à incidência de macrossomia.
