RESUMO

The impressive development of computed tomography (CT) techniques such as the three dimensional helical CT produces a spatial image of the thoracic skull. At the beginning of the 16th century Leonardo da Vinci drew with great precision the thorax oseum. These drawings show an outstanding similarity with the images obtained by three dimensional helical CT. The cumbersome task of the Renaissance genius is a prime example of the careful study of human anatomy. Modern imaging techniques require perfect anatomic knowledge of the human body in order to generate exact interpretations of images. Leonardo's example is alive for anybody devoted to modern imaging studies.

RESUMO

La traqueotomía mantiene la permeabilidad de la vía aérea. La revisión directa de la tráquea a través de la cánula o el traqueostoma por fibrobroncoscopía (FOB), permite ver la mucosa en su porción distal y por arriba del traqueostoma; por esta vía se pueden realizar diversos procedimientos. Objetivo: Evaluar las condiciones de la mucosa traqueal por FOB en casos con cánula de traqueotomía y la utilidad de esta vía de acceso. Material y métodos: Se practicó FOB en 38 pacientes con traqueotomía. Resultados: Las indicaciones más frecuentes de la FOB fueron la aspiración de secreciones, el lavado bronquial con aspiración y la obtención de muestras para estudio bacteriológico. En todos se valoraron las condiciones de la mucosa traqueal, incluidos ocho enfermos con estenosis de la vía aérea en los que se evaluó la mucosa antes y después de procedimientos quirúrgicos. Se encontraron lesiones de la mucosa, anomalías de la pared traqueal, lesiones de las cuerdas vocales y subglóticas. Conclusión: La FOB a través de la cánula o el traqueostoma permite la práctica de diversos procedimientos. La exploración endoscópica por abajo y por encima de la cánula de traqueostomía detecta alteraciones de la mucosa traqueal; en los casos de estenosis de la vía aérea superior, la visión retrógrada con FOB antes y después de las intervenciones quirúrgicas es un paso importante.


Tracheostomy preserves the patency of the airway. Direct exploration through the tracheal cannula or the tracheostoma by fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) allows a view of the conditions of the tracheal mucosa above and below the tracheostoma. Different procedures may be performed thru this approach. Objective: To evaluate the anatomic conditions of the tracheal mucosa by FOB in cases with tracheotomy cannula, and the usefulness of this approach. Material and methods: FOB was performed in 38 patients with tracheotomy. Results: Aspiration of secretions, bronchial lavage with aspiration and bacteriological sampling were the most frequent indications. The conditions of the mucosa were evaluated in all, including eight cases with airway stenosis, both before and after surgical reconstruction. Mucosal inflammation, tracheal anomalies, vocal cords and subglottic lesions were found. Conclusions: FOB trough the cannula or the tracheostoma allows for preoperatory evaluation of the tracheal mucosa. Careful endoscopic exploration above and below the tracheotomy cannula and the tracheostoma may show alterations of the mucosa in cases of airway stenosis both before and after surgical procedures.

RESUMO

We performed a retrospective chart review to evaluate the indications for endotracheal intubation via flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy in patients who were scheduled for surgery or who were hospitalized in the intensive care unit of our 1100-bed, tertiary care university hospital. We reviewed 9201 clinical records of anesthetic procedures during which endotracheal intubation had been performed from January to December 2002. We identified 66 patients who had been intubated with flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy. On preanesthetic examination, 61 of these patients had been found to be poor candidates for conventional laryngoscopic intubation-51 because of abnormal head and neck anatomy and 10 because of reduced visual access to the airway (Mallampati class IV). The remaining 5 patients were intubated via flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy after conventional intubation had failed during emergency surgery. Our study emphasizes (1) the importance of the preanesthetic examination of surgical patients, to identify those in whom conventional intubation would likely be problematic, and (2) the need to have fiberoptic bronchoscopes and an anesthesiologist or bronchoscopist skilled in their use available in operating suites and intensive care units.

RESUMO

Introducción: La exploración del árbol traqueobronquial puede hacerse directamente por fibrobroncoscopía (FB) y por imagen, broncoscopía virtual (BV), y por tomografía helicoidal computada en tercera dimensión (HCT3D). Objetivos: Evaluar diferencias entre la BVHCT3D y la FB en estenosis no neoplásicas de las vías aéreas principales. Material y métodos: Dieciseis casos de estenosis de vía aérea, 6 mujeres, 10 hombres de 16 a 57, promedio 33 años, evolución promedio 8 meses, rango de 2 a 108 meses. Diez con traqueostomía. En todos: FB con fibrobroncoscopio (FFB) y video para fotografía, HCT3D con reconstrucciones volumétricas y BV. Se determinaron sensibilidad (S) y especificidad (E) y significancia por r de Pearson para grado de estenosis y longitud de la vía aérea afectada por BVHCT3 y FB. Resultados: Siete estenosis subglótica, 4 estenosis traqueal, 1 estenosis de bronquio principal izquierdo, 2 colapso de tráquea y 2 granulomas. Se trataron 7 con técnica de Gríllo Pearson, 4 por anastomosis traqueales y 1 anastomosis bronquial terminoterminales, 1 terapia con láser, 1 dilatación y 2 no quirúrgicos. Para detección de estenosis, FB y BVHCT3D S 100% y E 100%. Para grado de estenosis, FB S 100% y E 100%, HCT3D S 60% y E 60%. Para extensión de estenosis FB detectó 4 casos, en 12 no pasó el FFB. En 12 casos operados, por HCT3D la correlación de la extensión fue exacta en 7 y en 5 error promedio de 10%. La extensión de la estenosis por HCT3D y en la pieza resecada por r de Pearson p< 0.05 -r=0. 7782 y grado estenosis p< 0.01 -r = 0.9534. Las 12 piezas resecadas tenían fibrosis, inflamación crónica, metaplasia epidermoide y granulomas en grado variable. Comentario y conclusiones: La BVHCT3D detecta grado de estenosis y extensión. La FB diagnostica estenosis y permanece como estándar de oro. Cuando el FFB no pasa es imposible medir longitud de la estenosis. La BVHC3D detecta espacialmente la estenosis de la vía aérea, no es invasiva y es costosa. ...


Introduction: Imaging of the larger airways can be done by fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) or by virtual bronchoscopy by means of three dimensional helical computed tomography (VBHCT3D). Objectives: To compare the differences of both methods for the assessment of non neoplastic stenosis of the trachea and main bronchi, as diagnostic tools helpful in the planning of treatment in such cases. Material and methods: Sixteen cases, 6 women and 10 men, ages 16 to 57, mean 33 years; clinical course 2 to 108 months, mean 8 months. In all: FOB and VBHCT3D. Sensitivity (Se) and Specificity (Sp) were determined and statistical significance for both methods and Pearson's r for length and degree of the stenotic segment using VBHCT3D. Results: Location: 7 cases with subglotic and 4 with tracheal stenosis, 2 cases tracheal collapse, 1 case stenosis of the left main bronchus, 2 granulomas of the trachea. Etiology: 7 cases post tracheal intubation, 5 cases post traumatic, 1 post tracheostomy, 2 tracheomalacia, 1 granulomatous disease. Treatment: 7 Grillo Pearson's technique, five resection of the large airways and terminoterminal anastomosis, 1 dilatation, 1 laser therapy, 2 non-surgical. For the detection of stenosis, FOB and VBHCT3D had 100% Se and Sp; for the degree of stenosis. FOB had 100% Sp and Se, VBHCT3D had 60% Se and Sp. To evaluate the length of stenosis, FOB could not pass the obstruction in 12 cases. In the 12 surgical cases, for VBHCT3D there was exact correlation in 7 and a 10% mean error in 5 cases. For the length of the stenosis in the freshly resected specimen, Pearson's r by VBHCT3D p< 0.05 -r=0.7782, degree of stenosis p< 0.01 -r=0.9534. All 12 resected specimens showed various degrees of fibrosis, chronic inflammation, epidermoid metaplasia and granulomas. Conclusions: VBHCT3D can detect degree and length of stenosis, but the gold standard for stenosis and degree is FOB, but in severe cases the instrument can not pass the obstruction and assess its length. VBHCT3D detects degree and length of stenosis non invasively and is expensive. FOB visualizes stenosis and its degree with precision, is less expensive. Both methods are helpful in the diagnosis of degree and lenght of the obstruction and in the planning of surgical treatment.

RESUMO

UNLABELLED: Descending necrotizing mediastinitis (DNM) is a serious disease of the mediastinum; early diagnosis and treatment may lower the high mortality rate of this disease. OBJECTIVE: To know the frequency of DNM in an intensive respiratory care unit. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a retrospective, transversal, and observational trial of a series of consecutive cases. In a period from January 1, 1990 to December 31, 2000, among 1,560 patients, we found 17 patients with DNM according with selection criteria. RESULTS: Fifteen males and two females, mean age 38.9 years SD +/- 14.5 years, were studied. In 10, tracheostomy was practiced previously. Seventeen cases had different kinds of previous abscesses, seven periodontal (47%), six retropharyngeal (35.5%), and four (23.5%) submaxillary. All cases were subject to thoracotomy. The most frequent postoperative complications were septic shock in 10 cases (58.8%), eight acute pulmonary damage (47%), six gastrointestinal bleeding (35.6%) and three acute respiratory insufficiency syndrome (11.6%). Seven deaths were registered and 10 patient survived. CONCLUSIONS: Statistical significance found between survival patients vs those who died was 31.9 +/- 8.6 vs 48.1 +/- 14.1 (p < 0.05) and in those with early tracheostomy 8.0 vs 28.6 (p = 0.68). Death occurred most frequently due to septic shock, specific mortality in this group of patients was 29%. Although DNM is a rare entity, 1.08% of all reviewed cases, must be treated immediately due to high mortality. The importance of early antimicrobial and surgical treatments is stressed.

RESUMO

Se presentan dos casos con estenosis total del bronquio principal consecutiva a contusión torácica grave. Un paciente tenía hemoneumotórax izquierdo y el otro hemotórax bilateral. Ambos se trataron inicialmente con drenaje a través de sondas para eliminar la colección hemática con resultados parciales. Posteriormente los dos pacientes presentaron atelectasia total del pulmón correspondiente, en uno se practicó decorticación pulmonar. En cada caso la fibrobroncoscopía demostró oclusión completa del bronquio principal. Se practicó broncoplastía con resección en manguito de la porción estenosada y anastomosis términoterminal con puntos separados de Vicryl 0000 para dejar libre la luz bronquial. Cada paciente se encuentra sin patología broncopulmonar, a cuatro años de la broncoplastía. Se enfatiza que debe considerarse la posibilidad de ruptura bronquial cuando ocurre contusión torácica grave, en cuyo caso la fibrobroncosccopía y el tratamiento quirúrgico inmediatos están indicados.

RESUMO

Background. Coccidioidomycosis is a reemerging fungal disease seen mainly in the states located at the Mexican-U.S: border. The finding of advanced cases of the disease are now more frequent. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the prevalence of skin reactivity to coccidioidin in the city of Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico, located in the northern region of the country. A multifactorial association of environmental, social, and health conditions was analyzed. A total of 1,653 coccidioidin skin tests was applied in male and female subjects older than 8 years of age. Results. The overall rate of positive reactivity in this city was 40.2 percent, with a 95 percent confidence interval of 37.8-42.5. This was related to time/life exposure risk and to the habitat of unpaved streets. No statistically significant difference regarding gender, socioeconomic level, and working activities was found. the highest reactivity was observed in subjects between 30 and 65 years of age. Conslusions. Positive results were related to exposure risk and habitat, principally in the sputheast region of the city. These results were applied both to residents and outsiders with no differences between the groups. Of the total, 87.5 percent were considered high-risk subjects. It is recommended that future surveys be carried out in other northern cities of Mexico to obtain more useful data concerning the extent of the infection and mainly to establish preventive measures, such as appropriate reforestation and urbanization procedures

RESUMO

A clone was isolated by screening of a cosmid library of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with an oligonucleotide designed from the N-terminal sequence of a previously reported proline-rich protein. Characterization of the 4481 bp insert showed the presence of polymorphic CG-repetitive sequences (PGRSs) with an ORF of 2.7 kb, encoding a 81.3 kDa protein (PE-PGRS81). Southern blot analysis and BLAST-p searches revealed several homologous sequences in the genome of M. tuberculosis. The deduced amino acid sequence was highly similar to a stretch of about 98 residues in the N-terminus present in several members of the PE-PGRS family available in the GenBank database, including 100% identity with the partial amino acid sequence of the potential protein encoded by orf3' as well as with the Rv0278c sequence. A neighbour-joining analysis of the 99 PE-PGRS sequences available in the database indicated that PE-PGRS81 is included in a group where its closest relatives are the sequences orf3', Rv0278c, Rv0279c, Rv1759c, Rv3652 and Rv0747. Probing with the complete coding regions of PE-PGRS81 and Rv1759c in Southern blot assays, on samples of genomic DNA from M. tuberculosis H37Rv, Mycobacterium bovis BCG and M. tuberculosis clinical isolates, showed a complex hybridization pattern for all strains. This shows the existence of intrastrain PGRS variability as reported for other PGRS members. In contrast, probing with the short conserved N-terminal region of Rv1759c reduced the hybridization to a single band. This marker allowed identification of M. tuberculosis clinical strains that lack Rv1759c. A recombinant C-terminal fragment of Rv1759c showed fibronectin-binding properties and was recognized by sera from patients infected with M. tuberculosis, suggesting that at least this member of the PE-PGRS is expressed in tuberculosis infection.

RESUMO

La aspergilosis pulmonar es poco frecuente en su variedad como traqueobronquitis, presentándose como una complicación en pacientes inmunocomprometidos. El carcinoma adenoideoquístico es un tumor raro, distinto de las neoplasias de glándulas salivales que rara vez se presenta como un tumor primario de la tráquea. Presentamos el caso de aspergilosis traqueobronquial asociada a un carcinoma adenoideoquístico en bronquio principal izquierdo

RESUMO

Un grupo de pacientes que fueron sujetos a procedimientos quirúrgicos de tórax y uno más con patología toracopulmonar diversa no quirúrgica, fueron estudiados en una unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Respiratorios (UCIR), y valorados con la escala de Evaluación Fisiológica Aguda y Crónica del Estado de Salud (APACHE II, por su siglas en inglés), a su ingreso y salida. Se registraron la mortalidad esperada (Knauss) y la observada. En los quirúrgicos la mortalidad fue de 11.8 por ciento (11/93) y en los no quirúrgicos de 50.9 por ciento (53/104) p< 0.01. Cuando la calificación inicial de APACHE II estaba elevada (más de 10.14), la mortalidad fue mayor. Las condiciones de admisión son determinantes para el pronóstico de sobrevida. APACHE II es una escala práctica para la valoración de los pacientes admitidos en una UCIR

RESUMO

De 1 855 tumores torácicos detectados entre 1971 y 1990, 923 (50 por ciento) correspondieron a cáncer broncogénetico (CaBr). La relación entre el sexo masculino y el femenino fue, en promedio, de 1.95:1. Los tipo histológico más frecuentes encontrados en hombres fueron: epidermoide 34.2 por ciento, adenocarcinoma 28.4 por ciento y de células pequeñas 13.2 por ciento; en mujeres: adenocarcinoma 38.9 por ciento, epidermoide 28.9 por ciento y mixto 7.7 por ciento, con una diferencia significativa entre los dos sexos para este tipo de tumores. considerando la relación entre fumadores y no fumadores, en el sexo masculino predominaron los tipos epidermoide, adenocarcinoma, indiferenciados de células pequeñas, indiferenciados de células grandes y tumores mixtos en los fumadores (p < 0.001); en el sexo femenino estas mismas extirpes predominaron en las no fumadoras. La comparación con el grupo sin CaBr mostró que el epidermoide, el adenocarcinoma y el de células pequeñas ocurren con más frecuencias en fumadores. El 92.2 por ciento de los casos se encontró en estadio III (Tumor Node Metastasys) y la oportunidad del tratamiento radical fue nula; la radioterapia y la quimioterapia tuvieron posibilidades muy limitadas; sólo 94 casos fueron quirúrgicos, con resección total en 36. Se requiere de los programas antitabáquicos se intensifiquen por la elevada frecuencia de CaBr en fumadores


Among 1855 thoracic neoplasms seen from 1971 to 1990, there were 923 with bronchogenic carcinoma (CaBr), 50%. The relation male: female was 1.95:1. Sixty three period thirty one percent were male. The histologic type were epidermoid 32.2%, adenocarcinoma 28.4% and small cells 13.2% in men; in women adenocarcinoma 38.9%, epidermoid 28.9% and mixed 7.7% with a significative difference for both sexes for these neoplasms. Other types were less frequent. There is significative difference between smokers and non smokers of both sexes p < 0.001. Epidermoid, adenocarcinoma, small cells, large cells and mixed were the most frequent in male smokers, in women these varieties were more frequent in nonsmokers. Comparison with the reference group with no CaBr suggests that epidermoid, adenocarcinoma and small cells carcinomas have a great possibility to be found in male smokers. Ninety two period two percent of cases were stage III (Tumor Node Metastasys) with no chance for radical treatment. Only 94 were subject to surgery with 36 total resections. CaBr is an important problem in the General Hospital of Mexico. Antismoking programmes must be stressed in relation to the frequency of CaBr in smokers.

RESUMO

Se analizó la utilidad de la tomografía Axial Computada (TC) y de la imagen de Resonancia magnética (RM) en la evaluación de las lesiones ocupativas del mediastino. Se estudiaron 30 pacientes con ensanchamiento del mediastino detectado en radiografías simples (tórax PA y lateral). Se realizaron TC y RM en todos los casos. 23 pacientes (80 por ciento) tenían procesos mediastinales ocupativos diversos. Se excluyeron cinco que tuvieron patología vascular y dos en los cuales el ensanchamiento aparente del mediatino era secundario a una hernia de Morgagni. Se valoró la utilidad de ambos métodos de imagen en la determinación de localización, extensión, invasión y naturaleza tisular de las lesiones mediastinales, en relación con los hallazgos quirúrgicos y con el diagnóstico histopatológico en todos los casos y con la información obtenida por los métodos de imagen. La información proporcionada por estos métodos en cuanto a la localización de las lesiones fue similar; la RM fue superior para conocer la extensión de los diferentes procesos hacia las estructuras adyacentes y para determinar la invasión a estructuras vasculares y pared torácica, lo que permitió planear las posibilidades de la resección qurúrgica con gran precisión. La correlación de la caracterización histológica obtenida mediante los métodos de imagen con el diagnóstico histológico definitivo dió una precisión de 78 por ciento para ambos métodos
