ABSTRACT

Introdução: Este trabalho descreve e apresenta os resultados de uma técnica alternativa para tratamento da esteatonecrose, a lipoaspiração com cânula específica, com bons resultados observados no exame físico e de imagem. A esteatonecrose é uma complicação que ocorre com alguma frequência nas cirurgias mamárias, principalmente nas reconstruções mamárias, nas cirurgias conservadoras ou TRAM, caracterizando-se, inicialmente, por endurecimento de uma região, que evolui para uma nodulação de tamanhos variados, em qualquer região mamária, com cistos oleosos e fibrose, que traduz uma preocupação constante por parte das pacientes, do oncologista, do mastologista e do cirurgião plástico devido à ocorrência de recidiva tumoral. Método: Foi realizada uma revisão retrospectiva dos prontuários das pacientes submetidas a procedimentos nas mamas, seja reconstrução ou estética, e evoluíram com esteatonecrose, sendo submetidas ao tratamento com lipoaspiração, inspirada na técnica de perfuração óssea para tratamento de necrose óssea, realizado por ortopedistas. Resultados: No período englobado, 8 pacientes foram selecionadas. A idade média foi de 56 anos. Grande parte possuía alguma deformidade na mama acometida, sendo o cisto oleoso o mais comum - 5 pacientes (62,5%). 75% possuíam história de neoplasia mamária. Conclusão: A individualização do paciente é a chave para o sucesso do tratamento da esteatonecrose e uma ferramenta essencial para atender às expectativas e anseios da paciente após essa complicação. Cada técnica tem suas indicações, vantagens e limitações, que devem ser amplamente discutidas com o paciente visando o melhor resultado possível.


Introduction: This work describes and presents the results of an alternative technique for treating steatonecrosis by liposuction using a specific cannula, with good physical and imaging results. Steatonecrosis is a complication that frequently occurs during mammary surgeries, especially during mammary reconstructions and in conservative surgery or TRAM. Steatonecrosis is characterized initially by hardening of the tissue that may develop into nodules of different sizes in any mammary region with oily cysts and fibrosis; consequently, steatonecrosis is a constant concern for patients, oncologists, breast cancer specialists, and plastic surgeons due to the possibility of tumor recurrence. Method: A retrospective review of the medical records of the patients undergoing procedures related to the breast, either reconstructive or aesthetic, was performed. Patients who developed steatonecrosis and were treated by liposuction, similar to the bone drilling technique performed by orthopedic surgeons for the treatment of bone necrosis, were included in the study. Results: Eight patients from the study period reviewed were selected. The mean age was 56 years. Most of the patients showed deformity in the affected breast, with oily cysts, reported in 5 patients (62.5%), being the most common deformity. Breast cancer history was reported for 75% of the patients. Conclusion: The individualization of the patient is the key to successful treatment of steatonecrosis and an essential tool to satisfy the expectations and desires of the patient after this complication. Each technique has its indications, advantages and limitations, which should be thoroughly discussed with the patient to obtain the best possible result.

ABSTRACT

Mesenteric lipodystrophy is a rare inflammatory process that predominantly affects mesenteric adipose tissue of the small bowell. Several mechanisms have been suggested as responsible for this entity although the precise etiolog remains unknown. The diagnosis is based on CT or MRI imaging and generally confirmed by surgical biopsies. Treatment is individualized and empiric and depends on disease stage and symptoms. We report a case of a 35-year-old male who was admitted to our hospital with a history of abdominal pain, constipation and a palpable mass in the left lower quadrant. Abdominal CT scan showed diffuse thickening of the descending and rectosigmoid colon, associated with increased density of the mesenteric fat. After failure ofan initial treat- ment with glucocorticoids, he underwent a laparoscopic sigmoidectomy. Histopatholog analysis revealed extensive stea- tonecrosis ofpericolonicfat and lipid-ladenfoamy cells which was consistent with the diagnosis of mesenteric lipodystrophy. Clinical presentation and treatment as well as a brief review of the literature are discussed.

ABSTRACT

Se analiza el caso de una niña de 14 años de edad con antecedentes de leucemia linfática aguda en fase I de quimioterapia, complicada con una pancreatitis aguda por drogas. Estando con frenación medular, desarrolla una trombosis venosa iliofemoral izquierda. Se decide tratamiento quirúrgico con trombectomía venosa, evolucionando favorablemente. Un seguimiento a los 4 años revela ausencia de secuelas postflebíticas, pese a tener 5 meses de embarazo en la actualidad

ABSTRACT

Los procesos inflamatorios benignos de la mama representan un capítulo importante en la patología de esta glándula. Afectan preferentemente a mujeres en edad fértil y el diagnóstico de algunas de estas lesiones puede resultar sencillo y su tratamiento no ofrecer dificultades, sin embargo en otros casos existen serios problemas, tanto para identificar el tipo de lesión como para determinar su adecuada conducta terapéutica. Afortunadamente, la mayoría de las lesiones inflamatorias mamarias finalmente demostrarán ser benignas. No obstante, el médico debe estar vigilante excluyendo en cualquier lesión la posibilidad de cáncer mamario. Cuando se enfrenta clínicamente una lesión sospechosa y su estudio no resulta totalmente clarificador, no debe postergarse la realización de una biopsia. En este artículo se revisan algunos conceptos sobre los procesos inflamatorios benignos más habituales de la mama, con especial énfasis en las bases del diagnóstico y las principales tendencias en su manejo y tratamiento
