RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Aneurysm formation is a possible, but rare, complication of granulomatosis with polyangiitis, known as Wegener's granulomatosis. Urgent diagnosis and therapy is very important because a ruptured aneurysm could be life threatening. CASE PRESENTATION: We, therefore, present the case of a 63-year-old Greek man who was diagnosed with granulomatosis with polyangiitis and retroperitoneal hematoma due to ruptured aneurysm in renal artery and upper pancreaticoduodenal artery. His clinical course was complicated by acute renal failure and acute respiratory failure due to alveolar hemorrhage. Emergency coil embolization was performed. Postembolization recovery was uneventful; no bleeding occurred. The patient underwent mechanical ventilation and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration and received combined immunosuppression and supportive therapy, but eventually died 30 days after admission to hospital from severe septic shock and multiple organ failure. CONCLUSION: Endovascular treatment is the therapy of choice, especially for patients with ruptured aneurysms that are hemodynamically stable. Early diagnosis is very important, as urgent embolization and early initiation of immunosuppression therapy are the treatment of choice.

RESUMO

Teratomas are neoplasms composed of tissue foreign to the area in which it is found. They are considered to be an acquired neoplastic disease and familial incidence has not been reported. Only one occurrence of teratoma between monozygotic twins has been found in the literature. Here we report the case of two heterozygotic twins with benign cystic teratomas of the ovary as a base for future research for efficacy of an accurate familial follow-up in order to diagnose this neoplasm in early stage and for the molecular understanding of pathogenesis of teratoma.
