Resultados obtenidos tras el tratamiento quirúrgico de los pacientes con metástasis hepáticas de sarcomas / Surgical and oncological results after surgical treatment of patients diagnosed with sarcoma liver metastases

Introducción: La presencia de metástasis hepáticas en pacientes con sarcomas se asocia a peor pronóstico, aunque en casos seleccionados la resección de dichas metástasis se ha propuesto para aumentar la supervivencia. El objetivo de este estudio es describir la evolución postoperatoria y los resultados oncológicos tras la resección hepática. Métodos: Se presenta un estudio retrospectivo unicéntrico. Se incluyen pacientes diagnosticados de metástasis hepáticas de sarcoma intervenidos quirúrgicamente entre 2003-2019. Los criterios de inclusión fueron la presencia de enfermedad resecable, la presencia de enfermedad extrahepática controlada no se consideró criterio de irresecabilidad. Resultados: Diecinueve pacientes se sometieron a resección hepática de 7 tipos distintos de estirpes sarcomatosas. La mediana de edad fue de 58 años. Las metástasis se diagnosticaron 25 meses de mediana tras el primario, 6 (32%) presentaron lesiones sincrónicas y 12 (63%) estaban afectos de enfermedad extrahepática. Se realizó hepatectomía mayor en 5 (26%) pacientes; se describieron 8 (42%) complicaciones menores. La mediana de seguimiento fue de 33 meses. El análisis de supervivencia se realizó estratificando en 2 grupos, la supervivencia fue del 100%, 85,7% y del 42,9% al año, a los 3 años y a los 5 años, en los no-GIST, y del 100% y del 40% a los 5 y 10 años en los GIST. Conclusiones: El abordaje quirúrgico de las metástasis hepáticas de sarcoma parece aumentar la supervivencia en pacientes seleccionados, asociando pocas complicaciones. En nuestra serie, la tasa de enfermedad extrahepática es elevada en comparación con series previas, no obstante la supervivencia es equiparable. Dichos resultados apoyan la resección hepática en pacientes con enfermedad extrahepática estable. (AU)

Introduction: The presence of liver metastases in sarcomatous tumors is associated with poor prognosis. However, in selected patients, surgical resection has been suggested as a tool to improve survival rates. The aim of our study is to describe postoperative and oncological outcomes after liver resection. Methods: A retrospective unicentric study was conducted including patients diagnosed with hepatic metastases from soft tissue sarcoma who underwent hepatic resection between 2003 and 2019. The inclusion criteria were the presence of resectable disease, including synchronic and metachronic lesions. The presence of extra-hepatic controlled disease was not considered unresectable. Results: Nineteen patients underwent liver resection for liver metastasis of 7 different sarcomatous subtypes. Median age was 58-yo. Liver metastases were diagnosed a median 25 months after primary tumor diagnosis. Six patients (32%) suffered of synchronic metastases and 12 (63%) were affected of extrahepatic disease. Major hepatectomy was done in 5 (26%) patients, 8 (42%) minor complications were described. Median follow-up was 33 months. Survival analysis was performed independently for, GIST tumors and non-GIST sarcomas. One, three and five-year survival rate was 100%, 85.7% and 42.9% in non-GIST sarcomas, while five and ten-year survival rate was 100% and 40% in GIST, respectively. Conclusions: Surgical approach of liver metastases of sarcomatous tumors seems to be useful in order to improve survival in selected patients, while associated to be of low complications rate. In our cohort, extrahepatic disease rate is high in comparison with series published before, nevertheless survival is comparable. These results support performing surgical resection in selected patients with stable extrahepatic disease. (AU)

Impacto del recuento plaquetario preoperatorio en la evolución perioperatoria tras la esplenectomía laparoscópica por púrpura trombocitopénica idiopática / Impact of preoperative platelet count on perioperative outcome after laparoscopic splenectomy for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura

INTRODUCCIÓN: La esplenectomía laparoscópica (EL) es el tratamiento de elección de la púrpura trombocitopénica idiopática (PTI) cuando fracasa el tratamiento médico. El objetivo de este estudio ha sido evaluar la factibilidad y seguridad de la EL según el recuento preoperatorio de plaquetas. MÉTODOS: Análisis retrospectivo de una serie de 199 pacientes a los que se les realizó una EL por PTI durante el periodo 1993-2015. Los pacientes se dividieron en 3 grupos según las cifras de plaquetas: grupo I (< 10 × 109 /L), grupo II (10-50 × 109/L) y grupo III(>50 × 109/L). RESULTADOS: El tiempo operatorio fue significativamente menor en el grupo III respecto a los grupos I y II(100 ± 53 y 105 ± 61min; p < 0,025). La pérdida hemática intraoperatoria fue estadísticamente superior en el grupo I (263 ± 551 ml) respecto a los otros 2: grupo II (128 ± 352ml) y grupo III (24 ± 62 ml) (p < 0,003). La estancia hospitalaria de 6,4±5,8 días en el grupo I fue significativamente superior a la de los grupos II y III (3,8±2,3 y 3,2±1,8 días, respectivamente; p < 0,003). CONCLUSIONES: La realización de una EL en pacientes con PTI con recuentos bajos es efectiva y segura

INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) is the preferred treatment of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) when medical treatment fails. The objective was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of LS according to the preoperative platelet count. METHODS: This study is a retrospective analysis of a series of 199 patients who underwent LS for ITP from 1993 to 2015. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to platelet count: group I(< 10 × 109/L), group II (10-50 × 109/L) and group III (> 50 × 109/L). RESULTS: Operative time was significantly lower in Group III compared to Group I and II (100 ± 53 and 105 ± 61min, P < .025)). Intraoperative blood loss was statistically higher in group I (263 ± 551ml) with respect to the other 2: group II (128 ± 352 ml) and group III (24 ± 62 ml) (P < .003). Hospital stay was 6.4 ± 5.8 days in group I, significantly higher compared to groups II and III(3.8 ± 2.3 and 3.2 ± 1.8 days, respectively (P < .003)). CONCLUSION: Conducting a LS in ITP patients with low platelet counts is effective and safe
