ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Severe oncological pain occurs in up to 60% of pelvic abdominal cáncer patients, being refractory to medical management in up to 30% of cases. In 1990, the superior hypogastric plexus neurolytic block (SHPB) was described for the control of pain in these patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of this technique for the control of oncological pain. METHODOLY: Studies that evaluated the effectiveness of the SHPB using the classic or transdiscal approach in adult patients with oncological abdominal-pelvic pain were systematically reviewed. A search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE and Scopus from January 1, 1990, to August 31, 2019, without a language restriction. The visual analog scale (VAS), morphine milligram equivalents (MME) per day, quality of life and presence of complications were recorded. The quality of the studies was evaluated using the Jadad and Ottawa-Newcastle scales. RESULTS: Eight studies met the inclusión criteria: 6 were descriptivo longitudinal studies, and 2 were controlled clinical trials, comprising 316 patients (75% female and 25% male; average age 53.2 years); the most frequent diagnoses were gynecological (65%) cancer. An average VAS reduction of 55%-60.8% was obtained as well as a MME reduction of 40%-60%. Three studies evaluated the quality of life using the (QLQ-C30), (PSS) and Zubrod scale all with positive results. Complications were reported in 18% of cases, pain related to the puncture was the most frequent. CONCLUSIONS: The SHPB may be an effective for the control of severe oncological abdominal-pelvic pain, decreasing the VAS and MME and improving the quality of life of patients.


INTRODUCCIÓN: El dolor oncológico severo se presenta hasta en el 60% de los pacientes con cáncer abdominopélvico, siendo refractario al manejo médico hasta en el 30% de los casos. En 1990, se describió el bloqueo del plexo hipogástrico superior (BPHS) para el control de dolor en estos pacientes. Nuestro objetivo en este estudio fue evaluar la efectividad de esta técnica. METODOLOGÍA: Se realizó una revisión sistemática de estudios que evaluaron la efectividad del BPHS técnicas guiadas por fluoroscopio en pacientes adultos con dolor oncológico abdominopélvico. Se realizó una búsqueda en Pubmed, EMBASE y Scopus desde el 1de enero de 1990 hasta el 31 de agosto de 2019, sin restricción de idioma. Se evaluó la escala visual análoga, el consumo de opioides: dosis equivalente de morfina día, calidad de vida, presencia de complicaciones y se evaluó la calidad de los estudios mediante escalas Jadad y Ottawa- Newcastle. RESULTADOS: Ocho estudios cumplieron los criterios de inclusión, 6 fueron longitudinales descriptivos y 2 ensayos clínicos controlados, con un total de 316 pacientes, 75% femenino y 25% masculino; edad promedio 53,2 años; diagnóstico más frecuente: Cáncer ginecológico (65%). Se logró una reducción de la escala visual análoga (EVA) de 55%-60,8% y reducción de la dosis equivalente de miligramos de morfina oral día (DEMO) del 40%-60%. Tres estudios evaluaron la calidad de vida con las escalas QLQ-C30, PSS y Zubrod, mostrando mejoría en todas. Se reportaron complicaciones en 18% de los casos, siendo el dolor en el sitio de punción la más frecuente.CONCLUSIONES: El BPHS puede ser efectivo en el control de dolor oncológico de origen abdominopélvico, disminuyendo escala visual análoga (EVA), dosis equivalente de miligramos de morfina oral día (DEMO) y mejorando la calidad de vida. Sin embargo, se requieren de estudios adicionales para dar una recomendación con alta calidad de evidencia.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT We describe the rare case of a 61-year-old female with right ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction caused by metastatic cholangiocarcinoma. Her past medical history was notable for cholangiocarcinoma treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation and two orthotopic liver transplants six years earlier. Urology was consulted when she presented with flank pain and urinary tract infection. Diagnostic workup demonstrated right UPJ obstruction. She was managed acutely with percutaneous nephrostomy. She subsequently underwent robotic pyeloplasty and intrinsic obstruction of the UPJ was discovered. Histological examination revealed adenocarcinoma, consistent with systemic recurrence of the patient's known cholangiocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT

El angiomixoma de la pelvis es un tumor mesenquimal inusual; que dado su alto potencial de recidiva es relevante que la exéresis quirúrgica sea lo más radical posible. Por su parte, la endometriosis infiltrativa profunda, es otra entidad poco frecuente que requiere de tratamientos complejos. La co-existencia de ambas patologías representa una situación absolutamente infrecuente; de los que hay muy pocos casos reportado en la literatura occidental. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 41 años de edad que desarrolló ambas entidades nosológicas de forma concomitante y que fue tratada quirúrgicamente con buenos resultados.


Angiomyxoma of the pelvis is an unusual mesenchymal tumor; that given its high potential for recurrence, it is relevant that the surgical resection be as radical as possible. For its part, to deep infiltrative endometriosis is another rare entity that requires complex treatments. The co-existence of both pathologies represents an absolutely infrequent situation; of which there are very few cases reported in western literature. We present the case of a 41-year-old woman who developed both clinical entities concomitantly and who was treated surgically with good results.

ABSTRACT

Antecedentes: Los tumores que asientan en el espacio virtual entre el mesorrecto y el sacrocoxis comprenden un grupo heterogéneo y poco frecuente cuya incidencia se estima en 1/40.000 ingresos. Se clasifican en congénitos, neurogénicos, óseos y misceláneas. Por ser asintomáticos u ocasionar síntomas inespecíficos su diagnóstico suele ser tardío y muchas veces cuando han alcanzado un gran tamaño o comprometido las estructuras vecinas. El diagnóstico y tratamiento, que requiere un equipo multidisciplinario, han evolucionado en los últimos años por el aporte de la resonancia magnética nuclear (RMN), las nuevas terapias quimiorradiantes y un abordaje quirúrgico más agresivo. Objetivo: Comunicar nuestra experiencia y sugerir la estrategia de manejo de estos tumores basada en esta serie y la de los centros internacionales de referencia. Pacientes y Métodos: Se revisaron retrospectivamente las historias clínicas de los pacientes con tumores retrorrectales operados entre 1991 y 2006 en la División Cirugía del Hospital Juan A. Fernández. Se excluyeron procesos inflamatorios, tumores rectales localmente avanzados y metastásicos. Se registraron sexo, edad, síntomas/signos, tiempo de evolución, estudios preoperatorios, tamaño tumoral, compromiso sacro y/o de órganos vecinos, tratamiento quirúrgico, morbimortalidad inmediata, estadía postoperatoria, secuelas, histopatología, recurrencia y supervivencia. Además se evaluó la utilidad de la tomografía axial computada (Te) y la RMN para establecer la estirpe tumoral, la posible malignidad, la invasión de estructuras vecinas y la vía de abordaje. Resultados: Hubo 7 pacientes (5 mujeres), edad promedio 37,5 (23-54) años. Congénitos: 2 (cordoma 1, hamartoma quístico 1), neurogénicos: 2 (neurofibroma plexiforme 1, schwanoma maligno 1), óseos: 1 (tumor de células gigantes del sacro) y misceláneas: 2 (liposarcoma 1, fibroma extrapleural maligno 1)...


Background: Tumors occupying the virtual space between the mesorectum and sacro-coccyx are heterogeneous and infrequent, with an estimated incidence of 1/40.000 hospitalizations. They are classified as congenital, neurogenic, osseous, and miscellaneous. Because they are asymptomatic or cause non-specific symptoms diagnosis is usually delayed, and very often done when have reached a great dimension or involved adjacent structures. Diagnosis and treatment, that required a multidisciplinary team, has evolved in recent years due to the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), new chemo-radiation therapies and a more aggressive surgical approach. Objective: Report on our experience, and suggest the management strategy for these tumors based on this series and that of international referral centers. Patients and Methods: Clinical records of patients with retrorectal tumors operated on, between 1991 and 2006 in the Division of Surgery of the Hospital Juan A. Fernández were retrospectively reviewed. Inflammatory processes, locally advanced rectal tumors and metastatic lesions were excluded. Registe red data included gender, age, symptom/signs, time of evolution, preoperative studies, size of tumors, involvement of sacrum and/or adjacent viscera, surgical treatment, 30-day morbidity and mortality, postoperative hospital stay, secuela, histopathology, recurrence and survival. Besides, the usefulness of computed tomography (CT) and MRI to establish the histologic tumor type, possible malignancy, invasion of adjacent structures, and operative approach was assessed. Results: Seven patients (5 women), mean age 37.5 (23-54) years, were treated. Congenital: 2 (chordoma 1, tailgut cyst 1), neurogenic: 2 (plexiform neurotibroma 1, malignant schwannoma 1), osseous: 1 (gigant cell tumor of the sacrum) and miscellaneous: 2 (liposarcoma 1, extrapleural malignant fibroma 1)...

ABSTRACT

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare disease usually occurring in young women of child-bearing age. It is characterized by a distinctive proliferation of lymphatic smooth muscle cells, especially occurring in the pulmonary parenchyme. The majority of primary LAM occurs in the lung, but there are a few reports of extrapulmonary cases. We report a case of a 21-yr-old female who first complained of low abdominal pain and was referred from a local clinic with the impression of an ovarian cyst. Gynecologic ultrasonography revealed a large posterior pelvic mass with an irregular echogenicity measuring 9.7x4.2 cm in size. Pelviscopy showed a large, thin walled, partly cystic, pelvic mass. The mass was partly removed. Microscopically, the mass was characterized by a haphazard proliferation of smooth muscle cells arranged in fascicular, trabecular, and papillary patterns around a ramifying network of endothelium-lined spaces. The cells were plump or epithelioid with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and showed a positive reaction for both alpha-smooth muscle actin and HMB-45 antigen. Surgical and pathological findings were consistent with pelvic retroperitoneal LAM. Despite the numerous treatment attempts, the patient suffered from intractable chylous ascites and developed pulmonary LAM and died due to severe respiratory distress.

ABSTRACT

En un estudio retrospectivo realizado entre enero de 1985 y diciembre de 1990, se revisaron 275 laparoscopías realizadas en pacientes que acudieron al Consultorio de Infertilidad Matrimonial del Hospital Arzobispo Loayza. De éstos, 38 (13.82 por ciento) tuvieron el diagnóstico de endometriosis. El intervalo de edad más frecuente fue de 30-35 años (42.10 por ciento). El 63.16 por ciento de los pacientes presentaron sintomas, siendo el dolor el más frecuente (55.26 por ciento). El ciclo menstrual fue regular en el 78.95 por ciento; en 70.27 por ciento duró 28-34 dias y en 78.37 por ciento la duración del flujo fue normal. Presentaron aborto el 34.21 por ciento de pacientes. El examen pélvico fue anormal en el 36.84 por ciento de los casos y el diagnóstico clínico se realizó en 13.16 por ciento. El tipo de infertilidad más frecuente fue la primaria (68.42 por ciento). El grado de endometriosis más frecuente fue el leve (41.66 por ciento). La endometriosis mostró una mayor asociación a la infertilidad primaria que a la secundaria (p menor 0.05). Así mismo, el antecedente de tumoraciones pélvicas se asoció a un grado severo de endometriosis (p menor 0.05)
