ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las lesiones en la mucosa bucal constituyen un grupo heterogéneo de alteraciones, de cuyo diagnóstico temprano depende el pronóstico y el tratamiento. Objetivo: Caracterizar a pacientes con lesiones en la mucosa bucal según variables clínicas, epidemiológicas e histopatológicas. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal y prospectivo de 23 pacientes con lesiones en la mucosa bucal pertenecientes a los consultorios médicos de la familia del reparto Vista Alegre, quienes fueron asistidos en la consulta de estomatología del Hospital General Docente Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso de Santiago de Cuba desde septiembre del 2021 hasta junio del 2022. Resultados: En la serie predominaron el sexo femenino, el grupo etario de 60 y más años, la estomatitis subprótesis como lesión más frecuente (39,1 %) y los traumatismos crónicos como factores de riesgo (65,2 %); asimismo, en los pacientes remitidos al nivel secundario de atención hubo coincidencia entre los diagnósticos clínico e histopatológico (76,9 % ). Conclusiones: De la valoración clínica, epidemiológica e histopatológica de estas lesiones y de la preparación de los especialistas sobre el tema dependerá el diagnóstico definitivo.


Introduction: Lesions in the oral mucosa constitute a heterogeneous group of disorders which prognosis and treatment depend on the early diagnosis. Objective: To characterize patients with lesions in the oral mucosa according to clinical, epidemiological, histological and pathological variables. Methods: A descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study of 23 patients with lesions in the oral mucosa was carried out. They belonged to the family doctor offices from Vista Alegre neighborhood and were assisted in the Stomatology Service of Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba from September, 2021 to June, 2022. Results: In the series there was a prevalence of the female sex, the 60 years and over age group, subprosthesis stomatitis as more frequent lesion (39.1%) and chronic traumatisms as risk factors (65.2%); also, in patients referred to the secondary care level there was coincidence between the clinical, histological and pathological diagnoses (76.9%). Conclusions: The final diagnosis will depend on the clinical, epidemiological, histological and pathological valuation of these lesions and on the preparation of the specialists on the topic.

ABSTRACT

Propósito Evaluar la concordancia entre el diagnóstico clínico y patológico en tumores conjuntivales en una unidad especializada en oncología ocular. Métodos Estudio retrospectivo de pacientes consecutivos con tumores conjuntivales diagnosticados en la Unidad de Oncología Ocular del Hospital Universitario de Valladolid desde 1992 hasta 2017. Los tumores se clasificaron según su origen (epitelial, melanocítico, linfoide y otros) y grado de malignidad (benigno, premaligno, maligno). Se realizó biopsia en los casos de lesiones sintomáticas o en crecimiento. Como indicador de concordancia entre el diagnóstico clínico y el patológico se utilizo el estadístico kappa (κ) de Cohen. Resultados Cuatrocientos sesenta y dos pacientes fueron atendidos de manera consecutiva, requiriendo biopsia en 195 (42,2%). La concordancia con el diagnóstico anatomopatológico fue satisfactoria en 154 (79%) casos. El análisis según el grado de malignidad mostró la menor tasa de concordancia en las lesiones benignas (n = 83; 91,6%) y premalignas (n = 62; 90,3%), con una concordancia total en las lesiones malignas (n = 50; 100%); el valor κ fue de 0,90. Los mayores índices de concordancia se encontraron en las lesiones epiteliales, melanocíticas y de partes blandas, con valores κ de 1, 0,8 y 1 respectivamente. El peor índice de concordancia se observó en lesiones linfoides, con un valor κ de 0,3. Conclusiones La mayoría de los tumores conjuntivales fueron correctamente identificados clínicamente. Las lesiones benignas y malignas mostraron la mayor tasa de precisión; sin embargo, las lesiones premalignas pueden ocultar enfermedad microinvasiva que puede pasar desapercibida en el examen clínico. La biopsia es esencial para un diagnóstico y un tratamiento precisos (AU)


Purpose The present study aims to assess the agreement between clinical and pathological diagnosis in conjunctival tumours in a specialist ocular oncology unit. Methods A retrospective study of consecutive patients with conjunctival tumours diagnosed at the Ocular Oncology Unit of the University Hospital of Valladolid was performed from 1992 to 2017. Tumours were classified according to their origin (epithelial, melanocytic, lymphoid, and others) and degree of malignancy (benign, premalignant, and malignant). A biopsy was performed in cases of symptomatic or growing lesions. Cohen's kappa (κ) statistics was used as an indicator of agreement between clinical and pathological diagnosis. Results Of 462 consecutive patients, a biopsy was required in 195 (42.2%). The agreement with the pathological diagnosis was successful in 154 (79%) cases. Analysis according to the grade of malignancy showed the lowest rate of agreement among benign (n = 83; 91.6%) and premalignant (n = 62; 90.3%) lesions, with a total agreement in malignant lesions (n = 50; 100%); the Cohen's kappa coefficient (κ) was 0.90. The highest rates of concordance were found in epithelial, melanocytic and soft tissue lesions with κ values of 1, 0.8 and 1, respectively. The worst rate of concordance was found in lymphoid lesions with a κ value of 0.3. Conclusions Most of the conjunctival tumours were correctly identified clinically; benign and malignant lesions showed the highest rate of accuracy; however, premalignant tumours can hide micro-invasive diseases that can go unnoticed on clinical examination. The biopsy is essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment (AU)

ABSTRACT

Se describe el caso clínico de un adulto joven de 30 años de edad, con antecedente de buena salud, quien fue asistido en el Servicio de Cirugía del Hospital Universitario Manuel Ascunce Domenech en Camagüey por presentar aumento de volumen en la región abdominal de dos meses de evolución, concomitante con astenia, anorexia, vómitos y pérdida de peso. En el examen físico resultaron notables el abdomen globuloso (bazo palpable) sin dolor, un hematoma periumbilical y múltiples adenopatías supraclaviculares; en tanto, en los estudios imagenológicos se evidenció la presencia de esplenomegalia. Se realizó esplenectomía con administración de anestesia general endotraqueal y en el estudio histopatológico de la muestra resecada se confirmó el diagnóstico de linfoma primario del bazo.


The case report of a 30-year-old young adult with a history of good health is described, who was assisted at the Surgery Service of Manuel Ascunce Domenech University Hospital in Camagüey due to volume increase in the abdominal region with a course of two months, concomitant with asthenia, anorexia, vomits and weight loss. Physical examination revealed a globular abdomen (palpable spleen) with no pain, a periumbilical hematoma, and multiple supraclavicular adenopathies; meanwhile, in the imaging studies splenomegaly was evidenced. Splenectomy was performed with administration of general endotracheal anesthesia and the histopathological study of the resected sample confirmed the diagnosis of primary spleenic lymphoma.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective To evaluate the agreement between the histopathological diagnoses of preoperative endometrial samples and surgical specimens and correlate the agreement between the diagnoses with the impact on surgical management and the survival of patients with endometrial adenocarcinomas. Methods Sixty-two patients treated for endometrial cancer at a university hospital from 2002 to 2011 were retrospectively evaluated. The histopathological findings of preoperative endometrial samples and of surgical specimens were analyzed. The patients were subjected to hysterectomy as well as adjuvant treatment, if necessary, and clinical follow-up, according to the institutional protocol. Lesions were classified as endometrioid tumor (type 1) grades 1, 2, or 3 or non-endometrioid carcinoma (type 2). Results The agreement between the histopathological diagnoses based on preoperative endometrial samples and surgical specimens was fair (Kappa: 0.40; p < 0.001). However, the agreement was very significant for tumor type and grade, in which a higher concordance occurred at a higher grade. The percentage of patients with lymph nodes affected was 19.2%;. Although most patients presenting with disease remission or cure were in the early stages (90.5%;), there were no significant differences between those patients who had a misdiagnosis (11/16; 68.8%;) and those who had a correct diagnosis (25/33; 75.8%;) based on preoperative endometrial sampling (p = 0.605). Conclusion Our findings corroborate the literature and confirm the under staging of preoperative endometrial samples based on histopathological assessment, especially for lower grade endometrial tumors. We suggest that the preoperative diagnosis should be complemented with other methods to better plan the surgical management strategy.


Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a concordância entre os diagnósticos histopatológicos de amostras endometriais pré-operatórias e cirúrgicas de pacientes com adenocarcinomas endometriais e avaliar o impacto da concordância entre os diagnósticos no planejamento cirúrgico e sobrevida das pacientes. Métodos Dados de 62 pacientes com câncer de endométrio operadas entre 2002 a 2011 em um hospital universitário foram avaliadas retrospectivamente. As pacientes foram submetidas à histerectomia e tratamento adjuvante, se necessário, e acompanhadas clinicamente de acordo com o protocolo institucional. Foram avaliados os resultados das análises histopatológicas das amostras endometriais pré-operatórias e cirúrgicas. As lesões foram classificadas como tumor endometrioide (tipo 1) graus 1, 2 ou 3 ou carcinoma não endometrioide (tipo 2). Resultados De modo geral, houve uma concordância baixa entre os diagnósticos histopatológicos das amostras endometriais pré-operatórias e cirúrgicas (Kappa: 0,40; p < 0,001). Entretanto, uma alta concordância entre os diagnósticos foi observada nos tumores de graus mais elevados. Comprometimento de linfonodos ocorreu em 19,2%; das pacientes e a maioria das que apresentaram remissão ou cura foram diagnosticadas nos estágios iniciais da doença (90,5%;). Não houve diferença significativa na taxa de remissão ou cura entre as pacientes que tiveram concordância (25/33; 75,8%;) ou divergência (11/16; 68,8%;) entre os resultados histopatológicos pré-operatórios e cirúrgicos (p = 0,605). Conclusão Nossos achados corroboram a literatura e confirmam o sub-estadiamento de amostras endometriais pré-operatórias com base na avaliação histopatológica, especialmente para tumores endometriais de baixo grau. Outros métodos complementares são necessários para um diagnóstico pré-operatório mais preciso a fim de melhorar o planejamento cirúrgico.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To correlate ultrasonographic and histopathological diagnosis in patients categorized as breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) 4. METHOD: Cross-sectional study, performed on patients with BI-RADS 4 (A, B or C) diagnosed by ultrasonography in the high specialty medical unit, hospital of specialties, Centro Médico Nacional General de División Manuel Ávila Camacho, of the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social. Age, ultrasonographic and histopathological diagnosis, menarquia, menopause, gestations, lactation, use of contraceptives and family history of breast cancer were evaluated. RESULTS: 101 patients categorized BI-RADS 4 were included; average age was 53.0 ± 8.3 years old, 6.9% of the patients were nulliparous, 92.2% with positive breastfeeding and 25.7% had a family history of breast cancer. By ultrasonography, 55.4% of the cases were BI-RADS 4A, 22.8% 4B and 21.8% 4C. 75.2% of the biopsies performed on the patients were benign and 24.8% were malignant. The overall ultrasonographic-histopathological concordance index was 0.25; 0.11 for BI-RADS 4A, 0.22 for BI-RADS 4B and 0.63 for BI-RADS 4C. CONCLUSION: The ultrasound-histopathological correlation is weak and inferior to that reported in the literature.

ABSTRACT

La presencia de adenopatías periféricas con rango adenomegálico es un hallazgo clínico frecuente, tanto en los pacientes con serología reactiva como en los no infectados por el VIH. En este estudio retrospectivo se analizaron 132 muestras de biopsias quirúrgicas ganglionares obtenidas de pacientes internados en un hospital de referencia en Enfermedades Infecciosas del GCABA, Argentina, en el período comprendido entre enero de 2011 y diciembre de 2015. La mayoría de los pacientes (100/132, 75,8%) tuvieron serología reactiva para VIH; en este subgrupok de sujetos, la mediana del recuento de linfocitos T CD-4 positivos fue de 141 cél/µL. El diagnóstico histopatológico más frecuente resultó la infiltración ganglionar por neoplasias linfoides primarias (linfomas) o metástasis de carcinomas (41%). Entre las patologías infecciosas predominaron las micobacteriosis, en especial la tuberculosis. Solo en 3 de 132 (2,3%) muestras de biopsias los hallazgos histológicos fueron normales. En conclusión, la biopsia quirúrgica de adenopatías periféricas resulta un método muy valioso y mínimamente invasivo para el diagnóstico de patologías infecciosas y tumorales. Una alta incidencia de enfermedades neoplásicas se detectaron en este estudio realizado en un hospital de Enfermedades Infecciosas.


Peripheral lymphadenopathy is a common clinical condition in both HIV-infected and non-HIV patients and has a wide spectrum of differential diagnoses. In this retrospective study, we carried out a cross-sectional study of peripheral lymph node biopsies performed from January 2011 to December 2015 in a reference hospital of Infectious Diseases in Argentina. We include a 132 patients underwent excisional lymph node biopsies during the time of study. The majority of patients were HIV-seropositive (100/132; 75,8%); the median of CD4 T-cell count was 141 cell/µL. The most common histopathological diagnosis was primitive or secondary neoplasms (54/132; 40,9%). In 51/132 biopsies the diagnosis corresponded to infectious pathologies, especially mycobacterial diseases, including tuberculosis. Only 3 of 132 biopsies (2,3%) included in the evaluation had only with normal findings. Peripheral lymph node biopsy is a simple and useful tool to diagnose opportunistic diseases and neoplasms in HIV and non-HIV infected patients. A high incidence of neoplasm diseases (41%) were obtained in this retrospective study

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Breast cancer is the neoplasm that most affects women in Brazil and the world, and its incidence has increased steadily over the last decade. Due to screening mammography programs, according to age group, the mortality rate of breast cancer has decreased by 31%. With the increase in the number of screening examinations, there has also been increase in the number of suspicious lesions diagnosed and, consequently, increase in the indication and performance of breast biopsies. With the help of the categorizations that the American College of Radiology published, according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS®), it was possible to standardize the reports and descriptions of breast lesions, both in mammography and ultrasound, facilitating decision-making in regard to suspicious lesions. Objective: To evaluate the positive predictive value (PPV) of nonpalpable breast lesions biopsied in the Radiodiagnostic Service of Hospital Naval Marcílio Dias. Method: A retrospective and analytical study of 88 patients submitted to stereotaxic guided mammary biopsies from December 2015 to December 2016 with suspected diagnosis of malignant lesions, classified by mammographic BI-RADS in categories 4 and 5 and later correlation with the histopathological reports. Results: PPV was high for category 5 lesions, and for category 4 lesions PPV was low and progressively increased with the subcategories. Conclusion: BI­RADS categorization is an effective predictor for the risk of malignancy in suspicious mammographic lesions.


Introdução: O câncer de mama é a neoplasia que mais acomete mulheres no Brasil e no mundo e sua incidência vem aumentando progressivamente ao longo dessa última década. Devido aos programas de rastreamento mamográfico, de acordo com a faixa etária, a taxa de mortalidade por câncer de mama diminuiu em 31%. Com o aumento do número de exames de rastreamento houve aumento, também, da quantidade de lesões suspeitas diagnosticadas e, consequentemente, um aumento na indicação e realização de biópsias mamárias. Com o auxílio das categorizações que o American College of Radiology publicou, segundo o Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS®), foi possível padronizar os laudos e as descrições das lesões mamárias, tanto na mamografia quanto na ultrassonografia, facilitando a tomada de decisão perante a lesões de aspecto suspeito. Objetivo: Avaliar o valor preditivo positivo (VPP) das lesões mamárias não palpáveis nas quais foi realizada biópsia no Serviço de Radiodiagnóstico do Hospital Naval Marcílio Dias. Método: Estudo retrospectivo e analítico de 88 pacientes submetidas a biópsias mamárias guiadas por estereotaxia no período de dezembro de 2015 a dezembro de 2016 com diagnóstico suspeito de lesões malignas, classificadas no BI-RADS® mamográfico em categorias 4 e 5, com posterior correlação com os laudos histopatológicos. Resultados: Foi encontrado alto valor preditivo positivo na categoria cinco e, nas lesões classificadas como categoria quatro, o VPP foi menor, aumentando progressivamente com as subcategorias. Conclusão: A categorização BI-RADS® é um preditor eficaz para o risco de malignidade nas lesões suspeitas na mamografia.

ABSTRACT

El tumor de Brenner es derivado de la superficie del ovario, que guarda similitud con epitelio transicional de la vejiga. Es un tumor raro debido a que representa 1,5 por ciento de las neoplasias de ovario. El objetivo del trabajo es presentar el caso de una paciente con tumor de Brenner fronterizo confirmado histopatológicamente y realizar una revisión de la literatura respecto al diagnóstico clínico e histopatológico de la entidad y compararla con otras entidades. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 88 años, a quien se la practicó laparotomía por sospecha de un quiste complejo; se describe la historia clínica y su diagnóstico, y se realiza una revisión de la literatura con énfasis en el diagnóstico. Se realizó una búsqueda de literatura utilizando las bases de datos Medline, vía PubMed, OMIM y SciELO, con los términos tumor de Brenner y tumor de Brenner fronterizo en español e inglés sin límite por año de publicación. Se encontraron 10 artículos, que corresponden a reportes de casos y revisión de la literatura, los cuales describen las características en cuanto a presentación clínica, diagnóstico clínico basándose en estudios de histopatología, y aspectos genéticos de la entidad. El tumor de Brenner fronterizo es infrecuente en México debe tenerse en cuenta como diagnóstico diferencial de tumores de ovario(AU)


Brenner tumor derives from the ovary surface and is similar to the transitional epithelium of the bladder. It is a rare tumor representing just 1.5 percent of ovary neoplasies. The objective of this paper was to present a patient with histologically-confirmed borderline Brenner tumor and to make a literature review on the clinical and histopathological diagnosis of this disease and compare it with others. Here is a 88 years-old women who was performed laparatomy because of suspected complex cyst; her medical history and diagnosis was described and a literature review with emphasis on diagnosing process. A literature search was made by using Medline,OMIM y SciELO and terms Brenner tumor¨ and ¨bordeline Brenner tumor in Spanish and English regardless of year of publication. Ten articles were found about case reports and literature review; they describe the characteristics of clinical presentation, clinical diagnosis based on histopathological studies and general aspects of the disease. Borderline Brenner tumor is infrequent in Mexico and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ovary tumors(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: El Siringoma Condroide o tumor mixto es una neoplasia habitualmente benigna que constituye 0,01 por ciento de los tumores primarios de la piel. Es una entidad análoga al tumor mixto (Adenoma Pleomorfo) de glándulas salivales. El diagnóstico es exclusivamente histopatológico. Objetivo: Presentar una paciente con un diagnóstico poco común de Siringoma Condroide benigno, donde se destaca como diagnóstico diferencial entre los tumores de la piel en cabeza y cuello.Presentación de caso: Presentamos el caso de una paciente femenina, de 45 años de edad, quien acude a consulta por presentar un nódulo subcutáneo en la región geniana derecha, que apareció como un pequeño aumento de volumen debajo de la piel, que fue creciendo gradualmente, asintomático, redondeado, bien delimitado, móvil, de consistencia entre suave y firme, de varios meses de evolución, como única lesión. Clínicamente se interpretó como un quiste epidérmico. Su diagnóstico anatomopatológico fue el de Siringoma Condroide benigno o Tumor mixto de la piel. Conclusiones: Resulta un caso interesante debido a la baja frecuencia de presentación de esta lesión. Es importante tener presente esta entidad en el diagnóstico diferencial de los tumores de la piel en cabeza y cuello. A pesar de ser un tumor benigno es necesario el seguimiento del paciente, pues, aunque es muy raro, se han descrito casos con un comportamiento maligno(AU)


Introduction: Chondroid syringoma or mixed tumour is usually a benign neoplasia, constituting 0.01percent of primary tumours of the skin. This is analogous to mixed tumour (Pleomorphic adenoma) of salivary gland. The diagnosis is only histopathologically. Objective: To present a patient with a diagnosis not very common of chondroid syringoma, where it is highlighted as differential diagnosis among the head and neck skin tumours. Case presentation: Is presented a case of a female patient; 45 years old, that arrived to the consulting room showing a subcutaneous nodule on the right genial region, it appeared as an asymptomatic slow-growing small mass, rounded, well bounded, mobile of soft and firm consistence, of several months of evolution, as a single lesion. The diagnosis was a chondroid syringoma or skin mixed tumour. Conclusions: It is an interesting case because it has a low frequency. It is important bear in mind this entity in the differential diagnosis of head and neck skin tumours. Despite being a benign tumour it is necessary to monitor patients, because even though it is uncommon, some cases have been reported with a malignant behaviour(AU)

ABSTRACT

El incremento en la incidencia de los linfomas asociado a enfermedades reumáticas está relacionado con los estados de inmunodeficiencia y autoinmunidad. Se presenta una mujer mestiza de 28 años con fiebre, adenopatías, artralgias, lesiones vasculíticas en piel, ulceras en el paladar, hepatoesplenomegalia y marcadores de anticuerpos para el Lupus Eritematoso Sistémico. Antecedentes de historia de cáncer familiar. El tamaño de algunos ganglios determinó biopsia del mismo, tomografía computarizada multicorte, Medulograma y otros exámenes. Se diagnosticó además linfoma no Hodgkin de células T con patrón periférico. Se concluye un caso cuya forma de debut concomitante de un Lupus Eritematoso Sistémico y un Linfoma no Hodgkin de células T constituye una extraña y poco frecuente presentación en la clínica

ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 75 pacientes con diabetes mellitus, quienes presentaron candidiasis bucal, tratados en la consulta estomatológica del Policlínico de Especialidades del Hospital Provincial Docente Clinicoquirúrgico Saturnino Lora Torres de Santiago de Cuba, desde marzo de 2013 hasta igual mes de 2015, a fin de evaluar los resultados del diagnóstico clínico e histopatológico de la citada afección. Las muestras para biopsias se fijaron y procesaron con la técnica clásica de inclusión en parafina; se colorearon con una tinción especial de ácido peryódico de Schiff, lo cual confirmó la existencia de cambios celulares. Predominaron el sexo masculino, el grupo etario de 60 años y más; la ausencia de manifestaciones clínicas, el paladar duro y la comisura labial como los sitios de mayor prevalencia y la candidiasis eritematosa como la forma clínica más común. La presencia de hifas patógenas y células levaduriformes fueron los hallazgos histopatológicos más sobresalientes(AU)


A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 75 patients with diabetes mellitus who presented oral candidiasis, treated in the stomatological service of the Specialties Polyclinic of Saturnino Lora Torres Teaching Provincial Clinical Surgical Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out, from March, 2013 to the same month in 2015, in order to evaluate the results of the clinical and histopathologic diagnosis of the mentioned affection. The samples for biopsies were fixed and processed with the classic technique of inclusion in paraffin; they were colored with a special stain of Schiff periodic acid, which confirmed the existence of cellular changes. There was a prevalence of male sex, the 60 years and over age group; the absence of clinical symptoms, the hard palate and the corner of the mouth as the sites of greater prevalence and the erythematous candidiasis as the most common clinical form. The presence of pathogen hyphae and yeast-like cells were the most outstanding histopathologic findings(AU)

ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 25 pacientes, adictos al tabaco, con carcinoma in situ en la mucosa bucal, atendidos en la consulta estomatológica del Policlínico de Especialidades perteneciente al Hospital Provincial Docente Clinicoquirúrgico "Saturnino Lora Torres" de Santiago de Cuba, desde abril del 2008 hasta igual periodo del 2013, a fin de evaluar los resultados del diagnóstico clínico e histopatológico de esta neoplasia. Mediante la técnica clásica de inclusión en parafina se confirmó la existencia de cambios celulares. En la casuística prevalecieron el sexo masculino y la ausencia de síntomas subjetivos en la forma leucoplásica. El sitio anatómico más susceptible correspondió al borde lateral de la lengua. Entre las alteraciones hísticas más comunes figuraron: hipercromatismo nuclear, membrana basal intacta, pérdida de la polaridad, así como pleomorfismo nuclear y celular...


A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 25 patients, with tobacco addition and carcinoma in situ of the oral mucous, assisted in the stomatological department of the Specialties Polyclinic belonging to "Saturnino Lora Torres" Teaching Provincial Clinical Surgical Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out from April, 2008 to same period of the 2013, in order to evaluate the results of the clinical, histological and pathological diagnosis of this neoplasia. By means of the classic technique of inclusion in paraffin the existence of cellular changes was confirmed. The male sex and the absence of subjective symptoms prevailed in the leucoplasic form in the case material. The most susceptible anatomical site corresponded to the lateral border of the tongue. Among the most common tissue alterations there were: nuclear hyperchromatism, intact basal membrane, loss of the polarity, as well as nuclear and cellular pleomorphism...

ABSTRACT

Se efectuó una investigación descriptiva y retrospectiva en el Departamento de Anatomía Patológica del Hospital General Docente Dr Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso de Santiago de Cuba, con vistas a determinar la incidencia del cáncer bucal diagnosticado histopatológicamente, para lo cual se revisaron las fichas de las biopsias realizadas desde el año 2008 al 2013, y se seleccionaron las 28 con dicho diagnóstico. El grupo etario más afectado fue el de 59-69 años (50,0 por ciento), aunque 8 pacientes tenían menos de 59 años de edad (28,5 por ciento); la localización anatómica predominante fue la lengua, seguida del paladar (57,1 por ciento para ambos casos); el tipo histológico más diagnosticado resultó el carcinoma escamoso (78,5 por ciento) y el hábito tóxico más frecuente fue el de fumar. Pudo concluirse que el cáncer de la boca presentó una elevada incidencia en esta institución hospitalaria, por lo que deben extremarse los cuidados en la aplicación del Programa de Detección Precoz de Cáncer Bucal en la atención primaria de salud(AU)


A descriptive and retrospective investigation was carried out in the Pathology Department from "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, with the aim of determining the incidence of the histopathologically diagnosed oral cancer, for which the records of the biopsies carried out from 2008 to 2013 were reviewed, and the 28 with this diagnosis were selected. The most affected age group was the 59-69 group (50.0 percent), although 8 patients had less than 59 years (28.5 percen); the predominant anatomical localization was the tongue, followed by the palate (57.1 percen for both cases); the histological type most diagnosed was the squamous cell carcinoma (78.5 percen) and the most frequent toxic habit was smoking. It could be concluded that the mouth cancer had a high incidence in this hospital institution, so that care should be extreme in the implementation of the Program for early Detection of oral Cancer in the primary health care(AU)
