RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The Racing and Crowded Thoughts Questionnaire (RCTQ-13) is the most widely used specific scale for the measurement of racing thoughts, but there is currently no Spanish version that allow the evaluation in Spanish-speaking patients. The objective of this study is to translate, adapt, and validate the RCTQ-13 in a Colombian population with affective disorders. METHODS: The questionnaire was translated and back-translated, and corrections were implemented following a pilot test to improve comprehensibility. We included patients with Bipolar I Disorder and with Major depressive disorder seen in three centers in the city of Medellín, Colombia. We evaluate structural validity with confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability. Construct validity was also assessed with the comparison between euthymic, maniac, and depressive episodes and the correlation with worry, rumination, and mania scales. Responsiveness was measured 1 month after the first evaluation. Based on item response theory (IRT), we also estimated item difficulty, discrimination, and fit using a generalized partial credit model. RESULTS: Two hundred fifty subjects were included. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed that the three-factor structure of the scale was appropriate. Internal consistency was adequate for the entire scale (Cronbach's alpha = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.94-0.96) and for each factor. Test-retest reliability was good (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.82, 95%IC: 0.70-0.88). For construct validity, we observed differences between patients with different types of affective episodes, a moderate positive correlation with the Penn State Worry Scale (r = 0.55) and the Ruminative Response Scale (r = 0.42), and a low negative correlation with the Young Mania Rating Scale (r = - 0.10). Responsiveness was proved to be adequate. Under IRT, the response thresholds for the response options are organized for all items. The infit was adequate for all items and the outfit was acceptable. CONCLUSIONS: The Spanish version of the RCTQ-13 is a reliable, valid, and responsive scale and can be used for the clinical assessment of the construct of racing and crowded thoughts in patients with the spectrum of affective disorders in whom this experience can be expressed with different nuances. Further research is needed to expand the relationship with rumination and worry.

Abstract Objective: Describe the device-associated infections in the NICUs in Cali - Colombia, a middle-income country, between August 2016 to December 2018. Methods: Observational cross-sectional study evaluating reports of device-associated infections in 10 NICUs in Cali, Colombia, between August 2016 and December 2018. Socio-demographic and microbiological data were obtained from the National Public Health surveillance system, through a specialized notification sheet. The relationship of device-associated infections with several outcomes including birth weight, microorganisms, and mortality was evaluated using OR Cl95%, using the logistic regression model. Data processing was performed using the statistical program STATA 16. Results: 226 device-associated infections were reported. The rate of infection with central line-associated bloodstream infections was 2.62 per 1000 days of device use and 2.32 per 1000 days for ventilator-associated pneumonia. This was higher in neonates under 1000 g; 4.59 and 4.10, respectively. 43.4% of the infections were due to gram-negative bacteria and 42.3% were due to gram-positive bacteria. Time from hospitalization to diagnosis of all device-associated infections had a median of 14 days. When compared by weight, infants with a weight lower than 1000 g had a greater chance of death (OR 3.61; 95% CI 1.53-8.49, p = 0.03). Infection by gram-negative bacteria was associated with a greater chance of dying (OR 3.06 CI 95 1.33-7.06, p = 0.008). Conclusions: These results highlight the need to maintain epidemiological surveillance processes in neonatal intensive care units, especially when medical devices are used.
RESUMO
Abstract Background: Population-based cancer survival is an indicator of the effectiveness of cancer services that reflects the survival of all cancer patients in the population, regardless of socioeconomic status and disease characteristics. Aim: Provision of an up-to-date survival estimate of patients recorded within Cali Population Cancer Registry (RPCC) in 1998-2017. As a second objective, results will be compared with those reported by the CONCORD study for cancers prioritized by the current Ten-Year Cancer Control Plan of Colombia, 2012-2021. Methods: Adult cancer cases (aged 15 to 99 years) for nine cancer types diagnosed between 1998 and 2017, with follow-up to 2018, were obtained from the RPCC. The 5-year age-standardized net survival estimates (NS) were estimated using the Pohar-Perme. The results for the period 1995- 2014 were compared with those reported by the CONCORD study for the following locations: stomach (C16), breast (C50), cervix (C53), prostate (C61), and lung (C33-34). Results: Five-year survival estimates for breast and prostate cancers improved ten percentage points through 2007 (70.8 to 81.1 for breast and 79.9 to 90.2 for prostate) and remained stable during 2008-2017. For cervical cancer, survival estimates has remained stable for the last two decades at 53%. For stomach cancer and lung cancer, five-year NS was lower than 25% over the study period. For colorectal cancer, survival estimates increased from 37.9% in 1998-2002 to 54.8% in 2013-2017. Compared to previous 5-year survival estimates of cases diagnosed in 2010-2014, the estimates in this study are significantly higher than those obtained by CONCORD. Survival estimates of patients diagnosed in 1995-2009 showed no difference to CONCORD study. Conclusions: Periodic update of vital status and date of last contact reduces bias in survival estimates in population-based cancer registries with passive follow-up.
Resumen Antecedentes: La supervivencia del cáncer es un indicador de la eficacia de los servicios oncológicos que refleja la supervivencia de todos los pacientes con cáncer de la población, independientemente del nivel socioeconómico y las características de la enfermedad. Objetivo: Realizar una estimación actualizada de la supervivencia de los pacientes registrados en el Registro Poblacional de Cáncer de Cali durante 1998-2017. Como segundo objetivo, los resultados se compararán con los reportados por el estudio CONCORD para los cánceres priorizados por el actual Plan Decenal de Control del Cáncer de Colombia, 2012-2021. Métodos: Los casos de cáncer en adultos (15 a 99 años) para nueve tipos de cáncer diagnosticados entre 1998 y 2017, con seguimiento hasta 2018, se obtuvieron del RPCC. Las estimaciones de supervivencia neta (NS) estandarizada por edad a 5 años se estimaron utilizando el método de Pohar-Perme. Los resultados del periodo 1995-2014 se compararon con los obtenidas por el estudio CONCORD para las siguientes localizaciones: estómago (C16), mama (C50), cuello uterino (C53), próstata (C61) y pulmón (C33-34). Resultados: La SN-5a para los cánceres de mama y próstata mejoró diez puntos porcentuales hasta 2007 (SN=70.8 a 81.1 para mama y NS=79.9 a 90.2 para próstata) y se mantuvo estable durante 2008-2017. Para el cáncer de cuello uterino fue 53% y permaneció estable durante dos décadas. Para el cáncer de estómago y el cáncer de pulmón, la SN-5años fue inferior al 25%. Para cáncer colorrectal las estimaciones de supervivencia aumentaron de 37.9% en 1998-2002 a 54.8% en 2013-2017. En comparación con estimaciones anteriores de supervivencia a 5 años de casos diagnosticados en 2010-2014, las estimaciones de este estudio son significativamente más altas que las obtenidas por CONCORD-3. Para la década 1995-2009 no hubo diferencia. Conclusión: La actualización periódica del estado vital y la fecha de último contacto reduce el sesgo en las estimaciones de supervivencia en los registros de cáncer de base poblacional que hacen seguimiento pasivo.
RESUMO
Objective: The Latin American Network of Congenital Malformations: ReLAMC was established in 2017 to provide accurate congenital anomaly surveillance. This study used data from ReLAMC registries to quantify the prevalence of microcephaly from 2010 to 2017 (before, during and after the Zika virus epidemic). Design: Nine ReLAMC congenital anomaly registries provided case-level data or aggregate data for any live births, still births or terminations of pregnancy with microcephaly. Births to pregnant women infected with Zika virus first occurred in Brazil in 2015, and in the remaining registry areas in 2016 with the exception of Chile that did not experience Zika virus. Therefore the prevalence of microcephaly for 2010-2014 and individual years 2015, 2016 and 2017 was estimated using multilevel random effect Poisson models. Clinical classification and characteristics of the cases were compared pre and post Zika for all centres providing individual case-level data. Results: The prevalence of microcephaly for all registries excluding Brazil was 2.3 per 10 000 (95% CI 2.0 to 2.6) for 2010-2014 rising to 5.4 (95% CI 4.8 to 6.0) in 2016 and 5.9 (95% CI 5.3 to 6.6) in 2017. Brazil had a prevalence of 0.6 per 10 000 (95% CI 0.5 to 0.6) in 2010-2014, rising to 5.8 (95% CI 5.6 to 6.1) in 2015, 8.0 (95% CI 7.6 to 8.3) in 2016 and then falling in 2017. Only 29 out of 687 cases of microcephaly were reported as congenital Zika syndrome in countries excluding Brazil. Conclusions: The prevalence of microcephaly was influenced both by Zika causing congenital Zika syndrome and by increased reporting awareness. (AU)

Introducción: la patología litiásica de las glándulas salivales forma parte de un grupo de afecciones que perjudica el sistema de drenaje normal de la saliva hacia la cavidad oral, ocasionando lesiones múltiples sobre la glándula afectada. Se realizó el reporte de un caso clínico con esta patología que, por el tamaño del lito, se considera extremadamente rara en nuestro medio. Método: se realizó el reporte de caso y revisión de la literatura (estudios radiológicos, historia clínica y hallazgos clínicos); además, el paciente firmó el consentimiento para esta publicación. Resultados: un paciente masculino de 38 años remitido de consulta externa con un cuadro clínico de 1 semana de dolor, edema y tumefacción en la región submandibular izquierda asociado con una secreción sialopurulenta por la cavidad oral. En la radiografía (Rx) oclusal estricta y en la tomografía axial computarizada (TAC) de cuello contrastado se evidenció una lesión litiásica de más o menos 4,5 x 1,8 cm de diámetro, de característica radiolúcida, a nivel del conducto de wharton. Se dio un manejo quirúrgico por otorrinolaringología maxilofacial, consistente en sialolitotomía y antibioticote- rapia por 10 días, con las cuales se obtuvieron buenos resultados. Conclusiones: la litiasis gigante a nivel del sistema salival (glándula, conductos) es una patología poco común en nuestro medio y está involucrada en el desarrollo de múltiples patología de tipo inflamatorio recurrente de la glándula involucrada, lo cual afecta la calidad de vida de los pacientes. Por esta razón, el diagnóstico y manejo debe ser oportuno para evitar complicaciones, como una infección profunda del cuello; en nuestro caso, el manejo fue oportuno con una extracción quirúrgica por la vía oral del cálculo y la reparación del conducto de wharton del lado izquierdo.
Introduction: the lithiasic pathology of the salivary glands is part of a group of conditions that harms the normal drainage system of the saliva towards the oral cavity, causing multiple lesions on the affected gland, a report of a clinical case with this pathology was made. Due to the size of the stone it is considered extremely rare in our environment. Method: case report and review of the literature (radiological studies, clinical history, clinical findings) patient consent was signed for this publication. Results: a 38-year-old male patient referred from the outpatient clinic with a 1-week clinical picture of pain, swelling and edema in the left submandibular region associated with sialopurulent secretion from the oral cavity in the strict occlusal Rx and a contrast-enhanced neck CT revealed a lithiasic lesion with more or less 4.5 x 1.8 cm in diameter of radiolucent features at the level of the wharton duct, surgical management was given by maxillofacial ENT, consisting of sialolitotomy and antibiotic therapy for 10 days with good results. Conclusions: the giant lithiasis at the level of the salivary system (gland, ducts) is a rare pathology in our environment, is involved in the development of multiple pathologies of recurrent inflammatory type of the affected gland, affecting the quality of life of patients, so the diagnosis and management should be timely and avoid complications, such as deep neck infection; in our case, the management was timely with oral surgical removal of the calculus and repair of the wharton duct on the left side.

RESUMEN Introducción: en los últimos años Colombia reconoció las enfermedades huérfanas-raras como problema de interés en salud pública y ordenó su notificación obligatoria. Objetivo: describir la información sobre las enfermedades huérfanas-raras obtenida en Cali a través del SIVIGILA en los primeros 2 años de registro. Materiales y métodos: estudio observacional transversal analítico. Se calcularon frecuencias absolutas y relativas. Se realizó un análisis de normalidad con el Test Shapiro-Wilk. Se calcularon prevalencias. Se evaluó la relación de diferentes variables sociodemográficas y clínicas y el riesgo de mortalidad usando modelos lineales generalizados, la familia de distribución de Poisson con función de enlace logarítmica y modelos de varianza. Resultados: fueron notificados 635 casos: 78 en el 2016 (prevalencia 3,25/100.0009) y 557 en el 2017 (prevalencia 23,01/100.000). La mayoría de los casos pertenecen al régimen contributivo. Las comunas con mayor número de casos y mayor prevalencia fueron la 17 y la 22. Entre las primeras enfermedades huérfanas-raras más comunes está la drepanocitosis, fue la más notificada en Cali con 25 casos para el 2016 (prevalencia 1,04/100.000) y 77 casos para el 2017 (prevalencia 3,1/100.000). La tasa cruda de mortalidad estimada para el periodo de estudio fue 0,83/100.000, las enfermedades con mayor mortalidad fueron la drepanocitosis en mujeres (0,12/100.000) y la polineuropatía en hombres (0,13/100.000). Discusión: es necesario realizar y publicar en el futuro análisis más profundos a través de la revisión detallada de historias clínicas y la incorporación de otras fuentes disponibles, como el Registro Individual de la Prestación de Servicios (RIPS) y el Registro Único de Afiliados (RUAF), con el fin de disminuir el subregistro y suministrar a toda la comunidad información más precisa y detallada.
SUMMARY Introduction: In recent years, Colombia recognized orphan diseases as a problem of public health interest and ordered its mandatory notification. Objective: Describe the information on orphan-rare diseases obtained in Cali through SIVIGILA in the first 2 years of registration. Materials and methods: Analytical cross-sectional observational study. Absolute and relative frequencies were calculated. Normality analysis of Shapiro Wilk was performed. Prevalence was calculated. The relationship of different sociodemographic and clinical variables and mortality risk was evaluated, using Generalized Linear Models, the Poisson distribution family, Logarithmic link function and robust variance models. Results: 635 cases were notified, 78 in 2016 for a prevalence of 3,25 / 100.000 and 557 in 2017 for a pre-valence of 23,01 / 100.000. Most cases belong to the tax system. The communes with the highest number of cases and the highest prevalence were 17 and 22. Among the first most common orphan-rare diseases, sickle cell disease was the most reported in Cali with 25 cases in 2016 (prevalence 1,04/100.000) and 77 cases in 2017 (prevalence 3,1/100.000). The estimated crude mortality rate for the study period was 0,83 / 100.000, and the diseases with the highest mortality were sickle cell disease in women (0,12 / 100.000) and polyneuropathy in men (0,13 / 100.000). Discussion: It is necessary to carry out and publish in the future, deeper analyzes through the detailed review of medical records and the incorporation of other available sources such as the Individual Registry of Provision of Services (RIPS) and the Unique Registry of Affiliates (RUAF), with in order to reduce the sub-registry and provide the whole community with more precise and detailed information.

Abstract Introduction: The COVID-19 disease pandemic is a health emergency. Older people and those with chronic noncommunicable diseases are more likely to develop serious illnesses, require ventilatory support, and die from complications. Objective: To establish deaths from respiratory infections and some chronic non-communicable diseases that occurred in Cali, before the SARS-CoV-2 disease pandemic. Methods: During the 2003-2019 period, 207,261 deaths were registered according to the general mortality database of the Municipal Secretary of Health of Cali. Deaths were coded with the International Classification of Diseases and causes of death were grouped according to WHO guidelines. Rates were standardized by age and are expressed per 100,000 people-year. Results: A direct relationship was observed between aging and mortality from respiratory infections and chronic non-communicable diseases. Age-specific mortality rates were highest in those older than 80 years for all diseases evaluated. Seasonal variation was evident in respiratory diseases in the elderly. Comments: Estimates of mortality rates from respiratory infections and chronic non-communicable diseases in Cali provide the baseline that will serve as a comparison to estimate the excess mortality caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Health authorities and decision makers should be guided by reliable estimates of mortality and of the proportion of infected people who die from SARS-CoV-2 virus infection.
Resumen Introducción: La pandemia de la enfermedad COVID-19 es una emergencia sanitaria. Las personas mayores y aquellos con enfermedades crónicas no trasmisibles tienen más probabilidades de desarrollar enfermedades graves, requerir soporte ventilatorio y morir a causa de las complicaciones. Objetivo: Establecer las defunciones por infecciones respiratorias y por algunas enfermedades crónicas no trasmisibles ocurridas en Cali, antes de la pandemia de la enfermedad por el SARS-CoV-2. Métodos: Durante el periodo 2003-2019, se registraron 207,261 defunciones información obtenida de la base de datos de mortalidad general de la Secretaria de Salud Municipal de Cali. Las defunciones se codificaron con la Clasificación Internacional de Enfermedades y las causas de muerte se agruparon según las guías de la OMS. Las tasas se estandarizaron por edad, son expresadas por 100,000 personas-año. Resultados: Se observó una relación directa entre envejecimiento y la mortalidad por infecciones respiratorias y enfermedades crónicas no trasmisibles. Las tasas de mortalidad específicas por edad fueron más altas en los mayores de 80 años para todas las enfermedades evaluadas. En las enfermedades respiratorias fue evidente una variación estacional en los ancianos. Comentario: Las estimaciones de las tasas de mortalidad por infecciones respiratorias y enfermedades crónicas no trasmisibles para Cali proporcionan la línea de base que servirá de comparación para estimar el exceso de mortalidad que ocasionará la pandemia de COVID-19. Las autoridades sanitarias y los tomadores de decisiones deben guiarse por estimaciones fiables de la mortalidad y de la proporción de infectados que mueren por la infección del virus SARS-CoV-2.

Introducción: El cáncer es una enfermedad de alta incidencia, con múltiples factores etiológicos y diferentes características evolutivas. Objetivo: Describir la supervivencia y la tendencia de las tasas de incidencia y mortalidad por cáncer de laringe y senos paranasales en Cali (Colombia) durante el periodo 1962 a 2015. Diseño: Estudio observacional descriptivo. Métodos: La información de incidencia, durante el periodo 1962 a 2012, se obtuvo en el RPCC y la mortalidad entre 1984-2015 de la SSPM. El comportamiento de la tendencia se evaluó con el porcentaje de cambio anual (APC) y la supervivencia relativa se estimó con el método de Ederer II. La estadificación se realizó con la AJCC. Resultados: Durante 1962 a 2012, se diagnosticaron 1623 casos nuevos de cáncer, 85.2% (1383 casos) fueron de laringe y 14.8% (240 casos) sinunasal 76% fueron hombres y el CCE fue el tipo histológico más frecuente 84.1% y 59.6% en laringe y sinunasal respectivamente. Se observó una disminución significativa del riesgo de cáncer de laringe en ambos sexos, siendo mayor la disminución en hombres (APC=-1,1*(ICD95%: -1,6; -0,7)). La disminución en la tasa de incidencia de cáncer de laringe CEC fue mayor en hombres (APC=-1,1*(ICD95%: -1,6; -0,6)) durante 1962-2012. Las tasas de mortalidad disminuyeron significativamente (APC=- 2,5*(ICD95%:-3,6 -1,5)). La supervivencia relativa a 5 años durante el periodo 2008- 2012, 43,5%; 93 pacientes se estadificaron con supervivencia: T3-T4 (41,5%) y T1- T2 (55,0%).

Introduction: Cancer is disease with high incidence, multiple etiological factors and different characteristics. Objective: To describe the survival and trend of the incidence and mortality rates for cancer of the larynx and paranasal sinuses in Cali (Colombia) during the period 1962 to 2015. Design: Descriptive observational study. Methods: Incidence information, during the period 1962 to 2012, was obtained in the RPCC and mortality between 1984-2015 of the SSPM. The behavior of the trend was evaluated with the percentage of annual change (APC) and the relative survival was estimated with the method of Ederer II. The arrangement was made with the AJCC. Results: During 1962 to 2012, 1623 new cases of cancer were diagnosed, 85.2% (1383 cases) were laryngeal and 14.8% (240 cases) sinunasal 76% were men and the CCE was the most frequent histological type 84.1% and 59.6% in larynx and sinunasal respectively. A significant decrease in the risk of laryngeal cancer was observed in both sexes, with a greater decrease in men (APC = -1.1 * (ICD95%: -1.6, -0.7)). The decrease in the incidence rate of laryngeal cancer CEC was higher in men (APC = -1.1 * (ICD95%: -1.6, -0.6)) during 1962-2012. Mortality rates decreased significantly (APC = -2.5 * (ICD95%: - 3.6 -1.5)). The 5-year relative survival rate during the period 2008-2012 was 43.5%; 93 patients were stratified with survival: T3-T4 (41.5%) and T1-T2 (55.0%). Conclusions: The risk of laryngeal and squamous cell sinonasal cancer associated to smoking decreased significantly in men and women of Cali during the last 53 years.

RESUMEN Objetivos. Determinar el perfil de los pacientes hiperfrecuentadores en servicios de atención primaria y su asociación con el trastorno ansioso depresivo en Cali, Colombia. Materiales y métodos. Estudio de casos y controles. Se definió como caso hiperfrecuentador a aquellos pacientes con un percentil >75 en la frecuencia de uso de consulta externa por demanda espontánea en los últimos 12 meses y como controles a aquellos con percentil <25. Se utilizó el análisis de correspondencias múltiples para describir los perfiles de los pacientes y mediante regresión logística se determinó la influencia de la depresión y ansiedad en la hiperfrecuentación. Resultados. Participaron 780 pacientes; las diferencia en los perfiles entre los hiperfrecuentadores y controles se observaron en los factores de predisposición: sexo, edad, escolaridad; de capacidad: tiempo en acudir a la institución y el medio de transporte que utilizan; y de necesidad: percepción de salud, apoyo social, función familiar, y la presencia de trastornos ansiosos o depresivos. Tener depresión o ansiedad se asoció con la hiperfrecuentación (ORa 1,99; IC 95%: 1,19-3,31) así como tener un sistema de referencias (ORa 1,61; IC 95%: 1,01-2,76), la disfunción familiar leve o buena se asoció de manera negativa (ORa: 0,79; IC 95%: 0,48-0,88) después de ajustar por edad, sexo, etnia e institución prestadora de servicios de salud. Conclusiones. Los pacientes hiperfrecuentadores tienen diferentes perfiles de capacidad, necesidad y predisposición que los controles, los últimos se asociaron de manera independiente a la hiperfrecuentación. En particular, lo trastornos ansioso depresivos duplicaron el riesgo de hiperfrecuentar en atención primaria.
ABSTRACT Objectives. To determine the profiles of highly frequent users of primary care services and the associations of these profiles with depressive anxiety disorders in Cali, Colombia. Materials and Methods. A case-control study, high-frequency cases were defined as those involving patients with a percentile >75 with regard to the frequency of spontaneous use of outpatient facilities in the last 12 months; controls were defined as those with a percentile <25. A multiple correspondence analysis was used to describe patient profiles, and the influences of depression and anxiety on frequent attendance was determined via logistic regression. Results. Among the 780 participating patients, differences in the profiles among frequent users and controls were related to predisposing factors such as sex, age, and education, capacity factors such as the time required to visit the institution and the means of transport used, and need factors such as health perceptions, social support, family function, and the presence of anxiety or depressive disorders. A depression or anxiety disorder was found to associate positively with frequent attendance (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 1.99, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.19-3.31) and a referral system (aOR: 1.61, 95% CI: 1.01-2.76), but negatively with mild or no family dysfunction (aOR: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.48-0.88) after adjusting for age, sex, ethnicity, and health service-providing institutions. Conclusions. The profiles of high-frequency patients differ from control patients with respect to factors related to capacity, need, and willingness; in particular, the latter were independently associated with frequent attendance. Notably, the presence of an anxious or depressive disorder doubled the risk of highfrequency attendance at a primary care facility.

Uno de los procesos de transformación más importantes y complejos de la actividad médica se comenzó a gestar a partir de la segunda mitad del siglo xxy tiene que ver con lo que actualmente se conoce como shared decision making (decisión compartida [DC]). Durante siglos, han sido prerrogativas del médico definir el problema de salud y decidir por el paciente (o sus familiares o incluso frente a lo que opinasen otros profesionales de la salud o sectores de la sociedad) lo más adecuado para solucionarlo. Esta actitud se ha denominado comúnmente paternalismo médico y en su momento se veía como algo correcto desde lo epistemológico (el médico es quien más sabe sobre salud y enfermedad), lo ético (la intención del médico es siempre buena) y lo moral (la sociedad otorga al médico dicha prerrogativa). Pero como sucede con otros aspectos de la salud y la enfermedad, el momento histórico es determinante al momento de interpretar los sucesos que afectan a los seres humanos y organizar las transacciones entre los diferentes sectores de la sociedad.
One of the most important and complex transformation processes in medical activity began to take shape in the second half of the 20th century and has to do with what is currently known as shared decision making (CD). For centuries, it has been the physician's prerogative to define the health problem and decide for the patient (or his or her family or even in the face of the opinion of other health professionals or sectors of society) what is the most appropriate way to solve it. This attitude has commonly been called medical paternalism and at the time it was seen as epistemologically correct (the physician is the one who knows the most about health and disease), ethically correct (the physician's intention is always good) and morally correct (society grants the physician this prerogative). But as with other aspects of health and disease, the historical moment is a determining factor in interpreting the events that affect human beings and in organizing transactions between the different sectors of society.

Introduction: In the surgical management of cholesteatoma, one can opt for a closed technique (simple mastoidectomy) or open surgery (radical mastoidectomy). Open mastoidectomy with reconstruction of the posterior wall and the middle ear in a single surgery combines the advantages of both techniques, namely, adequate surgical exposure, eradication of cholesteatoma, and anatomical reconstruction of the middle ear structures. Objective: To evaluate the surgical results in the management of cholesteatoma through the technique of open mastoidectomy with reconstruction of the posterior wall and the middle ear in a single surgery. Methods: Prospective analytical observational study conducted between 2009 and 2012 with patients undergoing this surgical technique in the Hospital Universitario del Valle [University Hospital of Valle], performing preoperative clinical monitoring and quarterly postoperative tomography with previous assessments of hearing and pre- and postoperative audiometry. Results: Forty-five patients were studied. Mean postoperative follow-up was 28 months. Surgical success was achieved in 93.3% of patients, as measured by clinical and radiological follow-up. Hearing preservation was found after reconstruction of the hearing mechanism, based on measured audiometry, i.e., pure-tone average (PTA), using the statistical test for paired samples between preoperative and postoperative PTA. (95%CI -1.47-12.15). Residual cholesteatoma was present in 6.6% of cases; three to four times lower than the rate reported in the literature. Conclusions: This type of surgery can be considered a successful technique in the treatment of cholesteatoma in selected cases.
Introducción: El manejo del colesteatoma es quirúrgico. Se puede optar por una técnica cerrada (mastoidectomía simple) o técnica abierta (mastoidectomía radical). La mastoidectomía abierta con reconstrucción de la pared posterosuperior y reconstrucción del oído medio en un solo tiempo quirúrgico reúne las bondades de ambas técnicas: una adecuada exposición quirúrgica, erradicación del colesteatoma y reconstrucción anatómica de las estructuras del oído medio. Objetivo: Evaluar los resultados quirúrgicos en el manejo del colesteatoma con la técnica de mastoidectomía abierta con reconstrucción de la pared posterosuperior y el oído medio en un solo tiempo quirúrgico. Métodos: Estudio analítico observacional prospectivo realizado entre 2009-2012 con pacientes sometidos a esta técnica quirúrgica en el Hospital Universitario del Valle, realizándose un seguimiento clínico preoperatorio y postoperatorio trimestral, y evaluaciones previas con tomografía de oído y audiometría pre y postoperatoria. Resultados: Se estudiaron 45 pacientes. La media de seguimiento postoperatorio fue de 28 meses. Se alcanzó éxito quirúrgico en el 93.3% de los pacientes medidos por el seguimiento clínico y radiológico. Se encontró preservación de la audición después de la reconstrucción del mecanismo auditivo, medido con audiometría basada en el promedio tonal auditivo, mediante la prueba estadística para muestras pareadas entre la PTA preoperatoria y postoperatoria (IC95% -1.47-12.15). Se presentó colesteatoma residual en el 6.6%, tres a cuatro veces menor al reportado en la literatura. Conclusion: Este tipo de cirugía se puede considerar una técnica exitosa en el tratamiento de colesteatoma en casos seleccionados.

Se revisaron las historias clínicas de 1.020 pacientes pediátricos que ingresaron al Hospital Universitario del Valle (HUV) con diagnósticos de lesión por causa externa durante un período de trece meses (1o de marzo de 1990 a 31 de marzo de 1991). La relación masculino:femenino fue de 2:1 y el promedio de edad 6.5 años. Durante el período estudiado la mayoría de las lesiones ocurrieron en los días del fin de semana y a lo largo de los diferentes meses no se encontraron diferencias significativas. Según el origen de la lesión, los accidentes domésticos ocuparon el primer lugar con un 40 por ciento, seguido de los accidentes de tránsito, con un 23.7 por ciento. Los agentes de lesión más frecuentes fueron los traumas contusos (40 por ciento), seguido por las caídas de altura (25 por ciento). La mitad de los niños sufrieron lesiones en las extremidades, el 29 por ciento en la cabeza; le siguen las lesiones de la cara y cuello (16 por ciento), de abdómen (13 por ciento) y tórax (7.6 por ciento). El 43 por ciento de los pacientes presentó complicaciones con una mortalidad del 2.6 por ciento, donde el 96 por ciento fue consecuencia de TCE o quemaduras. El promedio de estancia hospitalaria fue de 6.8 días. Se encontró el puntaje de trauma pediátrico (PTS) como predictor de sobrevida y mortalidad.

Objective: to report a case of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) of the posterior fossa. Description: male, 53 years old, with a clinical presentation of dizziness and diplopia. MRI: posterior fossa tumor in the left cerebellar hemisphere, with an extension to the peduncle, brain stem and cerebellopontine angle. Intervention: a subtotal ressection was performed through a suboccipital craniotomy. Pathology informed GBM. After surgery the patient completed the treatment with radiotherapy (60Gy). The outcome was favorable. Conclusion: the preoperative diagnosis of a posterior fossa GBM is difficult because its a extremely rare localization, nevertheless it must be suspected

Objective: To describe 2 cases of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. Description: Case 1 (24 years old female) complained of right ciatica and wakness in the last 15 days, with urinary retention. MRI showed a conus medullaris lesion that enhanced with gadolinium. Case 2 (47 years old female) with a previous history of a high grade B-cell limphoma, complaneid of astenia, anorexia and radicular pain. Lately she developed neurological deterioration, VII nerve palsy, urinary retention and seizures. A cisternal puncture was positive for neoplastic cells. Intervention: In case 1 surgery was performed and pathology infrmed high grade glioma. After 30 days she developed a meningeal syndrome with bilateral VI and VII cranial nerves paresis and neurological deterioration. Lumbar puncture was positive for neoplastic cells. She died after 15 days. Case 2 received intrathecal chemotherapy. Conclusion: Patients with extraneural malignat tumors and high grade tumors of the nervous system that refer signs and symptoms of a meningeal dissemination, meningeal carcinomatosis must be suspected

Objective: to describe 3 cases of intracranial cystic meningioma. Description: Case 1 (male, 24 years old), with headache, vomits, right homonymous hemianopsia and conductal disorder, in the last 2 months. MRI: left parieto - occipital cystic tumor. Case 2 (male, 56 years old) with generalized siezure, in the last month. MRI. left parietal cystic tumor. In the three cases, the suspected diagnose was glioma. Intervention: in the 3 cases a craniotomy was perfomed, with total (cases 2 and 3) or partial resection of the tumor (case 1). The cysts were intratumoral (case 2) and extratumoral (cases 1 and 3). Pathology informed meningioma. The outcome was favorable, with no complications. Conclusion: It is very difficult to make a diagnosis of cystic meningioma before surgery procedure and pathological analysis. During surgery they behave as solid meningiomas
