ABSTRACT

Introducción: El divérticulo calicial se detecta en 0,21 a 0.60 por ciento de los urogramas excretores. Objetivos: Describir una paciente con diagnóstico incidental de esta anomalía y su seguimiento durante 11 años. Presentación del caso: Durante la realización de un urograma excretor para el estudio de una hidronefrosis en una niña de siete años de edad, se detectó un divertículo calicial en el riñón contralateral y después de 11 años de seguimiento ultrasonográfico no se ha demostrado modificación ni complicación del divertículo. Conclusiones: El divertículo calicial es una anomalía congénita que puede mantenerse sin complicaciones durante años por lo que debe tratarse conservadoramente(AU)


ABSTRACT Introduction: Calyceal diverticulum is detected in 0,21 percent to 0.60 percent of excretory urogram. Objectives: To describe a patient with an incidental diagnosis of this anomaly and her follow up during 11 years. Case presentation: During the performance of an excretory urogram for studying a hydronefrosis in a seven years old girl, a calyceal diverticulum was detected in the contralateral kidney; and after 11 years of ultrasonographic follow-up there has been no modifications or complication related with the diverticulum. Conclusions: Calycial diverticulum is a congenital anomaly that can last years without presenting complications. That is why it must be treated conservatively(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introduccion: Los aneurismas y divertículos cardíacos congénitos constituyen malformaciones poco frecuentes y generalmente comprometen el ventrículo izquierdo. Pueden presentarse en forma asintomática, causar embolización, arritmia, insuficiencia cardíaca, rotura o muerte súbita. La ecocardiografía Doppler color realiza el diagnóstico y detecta malformaciones asociadas. La terapia puede ser médica o quirúrgica dependiendo de la presentación clínica y de los hallazgos en cada paciente. Método: Estudio retrospectivo de 5 pacientes durante un período de diez años, uno con divertículo, cuatro con aneurismas, en los cuales se analizó sexo, edad, motivo de consulta, sintomatología, hallazgos al examen físico, malformaciones extracardíacas o cardíacas asociadas. La ecocardiografía confirmó el diagnóstico y analizó la localización, efecto sobre la función cardíaca y presencia de complicaciones. Se estudió el tipo de tratamiento elegido como terapia antiplaquetaria, antiarrítmica o quirúrgica, además del seguimiento. Resultados: De un total de 5 pacientes, tres eran hombres, la mediana de edad al diagnóstico fue de 13 meses; dos de diagnóstico antenatal. Soplo cardíaco (3/5) fue el principal hecho que motivó el estudio. La ubicación más frecuente fue en el ventrículo izquierdo y la malformación cardíaca asociada la comunicación interventricular (2 pacientes). La terapia elegida fue médica en todos los pacientes con aspirina y en un caso se agregó atenolol por taquicardia ventricular no sostenida. Ningún paciente falleció. Conclusion: Constituye la primera publicación sobre esta patología en nuestro país; si bien es una serie pequeña, aporta aspectos clínicos, diagnósticos y de seguimiento que ayudan a sospechar esta rara malformación en el paciente pediátrico.


Introduction: Congenital cardiac aneurysms and diverticula are rare cardiac malformations which mainly affects the left ventricle. Clinically, most are asymptomatic or may cause systemic embolization, arrhyth-mia, heart failure, ventricular wall rupture or sudden cardiac death. Doppler echocardiography establishes the diagnosis and can detect associated malformations. Treatment may be medical or surgical, depending on findings. Patients and Methods: Retrospective study of 5 patients followed for ten years. One patient presented with a diverticulum and four with aneurysms. We analyzed sex, age at diagnosis, symptoms, physical examination, and associated cardiac and extracardiac malformations. Echocardiography confirmed the diagnosis and established location, cardiac function, and presence of complications. We analyzed the treatments used: antiplatelet, anti-arrhythmic or surgical therapy, and follow up. Results: Three were males, the median age at diagnosis was 13 months; in two patients the diagnosis was made before birth. Heart murmur in 3 of 5 patients was the main presenting finding. The most frequent location was the left ventricle and the associated cardiac malformation was ventricular septal defect in 2 patients. All patients were treated with aspirin. One patient with non-sustained ventricular tachycardia received ateno-lol. There were no deaths. Conclusion: This is the first report of this disease in our country. Although it is a small series it provides important clinical aspects for the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up that help us suspect this rare malformation in pediatric patients.

ABSTRACT

Los divertículos vesicales congénitos son infrecuentes. En el adulto generalmente se detectan asociados a factores obstructivos a la salida vesical, y se manifiestan por sepsis urinaria recurrente en la mayoría de los casos. Se presenta un paciente del sexo masculino de 67 años de edad, que asistió a consulta por infecciones urinarias bajas a repetición. Al examen físico se constató la presencia de un tumor ovoide de unos 10 cm de diámetro, móvil, no doloroso y con matidez a la percusión, en proyección del hipogastrio y lateralizado hacia la izquierda; la próstata al tacto rectal era de tamaño normal y de consistencia fibroelástica. En el ultrasonido, la uretrocistografía y la tomografía axial computadorizada, se evidenció un divertículo vesical gigante, con su cuello hacia la pared lateral izquierda de la vejiga. Se confirmó mediante la cistoscopia y se procedió a su exéresis por cirugía convencional. El informe histopatológico reveló la existencia de las capas mucosa, muscular y adventicia en su pared, de manera que se corroboró su origen congénito. La evolución del paciente resultó satisfactoria. La exéresis total de los divertículos vesicales congénitos de gran tamaño, constituye la solución definitiva para aquellos pacientes que presentan sepsis urinaria recurrente, en ausencia de factores obstructivos al vaciamiento vesical


Congenital vesical diverticula are infrequent. In adult persons generally are detected in association with obstructive factors for vesical outlet with a recurrent urinary sepsis as manifestation in most cases. This is the case of a male patient aged 67 seen in consultation due to repeated low urinary infections. In physical examination was confirmed the presence of a 10 cm ovoid, mobile and no-painful tumor and with a dull sound to percussion in hypogastrium projection and lateralized to left; at rectal tactus it was of normal size and with a fibroelastic consistency. Ultrasound, urethrocystography and computerized axial tomography evidenced a giant vesical diverticulum with its neck to left lateral wall of bladder confirmed by cystoscopy and exeresis by conventional surgery. Histopathological report showed the presence of mucous and muscular layers, and adventitia in its wall, thus confirming its congenital origin. Patient's course was satisfactory. Total exeresis of big congenital vesical diverticula is the definite solution for those patients presenting with recurrent urinary sepsis in the absence of obstructive factors to vesical voiding

ABSTRACT

Isolated congenital ventricular diverticulum or aneurysm is rare and usually arises from the left ventricle. The presentation of this condition is diverse. We report three cases of isolated congenital left ventricular diverticula. The age range was 17-30 years. Chest X-ray provided the earliest clinical suspicion in these three cases of a cardiac anomaly which was diagnosed by echocardiography and confirmed by angiocardiography. The location of the congenital left ventricular diverticulum was the left ventricular apex in two cases and basal in the other. We conclude that congenital left ventricular diverticulum is a disease of protean presentations. A high index of suspicion is necessary while interpreting chest X-rays and echocardiographs to diagnose congenital left ventricular diverticulum. A contractile accessory chamber of the left ventricle with a narrow neck with or without midline defects and an electrocardiogram without Q waves is consistent with the diagnosis of congenital left ventricular diverticulum.

ABSTRACT

We report a case of congenital diverticulum of the ureter diagnosed during the neonatal period in a female patient associated with a controlateral multicystic kidney. The prenatal ultrasound has suspected the presence of hydronephrosis and the final diagnosis was made after birth by the intravenous pyelography and retrograde uretropyelography. A simple resection with termino-terminal anastomosis was made with uneventful postoperative course
