RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND AIMS: Surgical or endoscopic treatments play an essential role in the management of achalasia. The probability of adverse events in the performance of said treatments is a relevant aspect, when establishing the risk-benefit balance. The present study aimed to establish the association between serious adverse events and the performance of those procedures, in adult patients with achalasia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systemic search of randomized and nonrandomized clinical trials, retrospective cohorts, and cases series on adult patients with achalasia that underwent laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM), peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), or endoscopic balloon dilation, that reported serious adverse events, was carried out on the Medline, CENTRAL, and EBSCO databases. Serious adverse events were defined as: death at 30 days, Clavien-Dindo grade III or higher classification, esophageal or gastric perforation, pneumothorax, mucosal tear, leakage, emphysema, pneumonia, and chest pain. The methodology included the PRISMA guidelines for reporting systematic reviews. RESULTS: Thirty-five studies were found that reported information on 1,276 patients that underwent POEM, 5,492 that underwent LHM, and 10,346 that underwent endoscopic balloon dilation. The proportions of adverse events for the three techniques were 3.6, 4.9, and 3.1%, respectively. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The 3 therapeutic interventions evaluated had similar proportions of adverse events. There were few reports of death at 30 days as an outcome and the lack of standardization in reporting adverse events in the studies analyzed was prominent.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: Typically, when esophageal perforation secondary to barotrauma is mentioned as the causal pathophysiological mechanism of perforation, the literature refers to spontaneous esophageal perforation or Boerhaave syndrome as an entity. It involves the longitudinal and transmural rupture of the esophagus (previously healthy) secondary to an abrupt increase in intraluminal esophageal pressure, frequently triggered during vomiting. However, in the medical literature, some reports list mechanisms of barotrauma other than this entity. Case report: A 64-year-old female patient with a history of surgically managed gastric adenocarcinoma (total gastrectomy and esophagoenteral anastomosis) presented with stenosis of the esophagojejunal anastomosis, which required an endoscopic dilatation protocol with a CRETM balloon. The third session of endoscopic dilation was held; in removing the endoscope, we identified a deep esophageal laceration with a 4 cm long perforation at the level of the middle esophagus (8 cm proximal to the dilated anastomosis), suspecting the mechanism of barotrauma as the causal agent. She required urgent transfer to the operating room, where we performed thoracoscopic esophagectomy, broad-spectrum empiric antimicrobial coverage, and enteral nutrition by advanced tube during in-hospital surveillance. The control esophagram at seven days showed a small leak over the anastomotic area, which was managed conservatively. Imaging control at 14 days showed a decrease in the size of the leak, with good evolution and tolerance to the oral route. The patient was later discharged.


Resumen Introducción: típicamente, cuando se menciona la perforación esofágica secundaria a barotrauma como el mecanismo fisiopatológico causal de la perforación, la literatura se refiere a la perforación esofágica espontánea o síndrome de Boerhaave como entidad, la cual hace referencia a la ruptura longitudinal y transmural del esófago (previamente sano) secundaria a un aumento abrupto de la presión intraluminal esofágica, que se desencadena frecuentemente durante el vómito. Sin embargo, en la literatura médica existen algunos reportes que mencionan otros mecanismos de barotrauma diferentes a esta entidad. Reporte de caso: se presenta el caso de una paciente de 64 años con antecedente de adenocarcinoma gástrico manejado quirúrgicamente (gastrectomía total y anastomosis esofagoenteral), quien presentaba estenosis de anastomosis esofagoyeyunal, que requirió un protocolo de dilatación endoscópica con balón CRETM. Se llevó a una tercera sesión de dilatación endoscópica, en la que durante la extracción del endoscopio se identificó una laceración esofágica profunda con perforación de 4 cm de longitud a nivel del esófago medio (8 cm proximal a anastomosis dilatada), y se sospechó del mecanismo de barotrauma como agente causal. Requirió traslado urgente a sala de cirugía, en la que se realizó esofagorrafia por toracoscopia, cubrimiento antimicrobiano empírico de amplio espectro y nutrición enteral por sonda avanzada durante la vigilancia intrahospitalaria. El esofagograma de control a los 7 días mostró una pequeña fuga sobre el área anastomótica, la cual se manejó de manera conservadora. El control imagenológico a los 14 días evidenció una disminución del tamaño de la fuga, con una evolución satisfactoria y tolerancia a la vía oral, y posteriormente se dio el egreso.

RESUMO

Introducción: El uso de prótesis esofágicas para el manejo endoscópico de fístulas y perforaciones se ha convertido en un procedimiento habitual. Una de sus limitaciones es su alta tasa de migración. Para resolver esta situación, se ha propuesto el uso de prótesis cubiertas de doble malla.Objetivos: Analizar nuestra experiencia práctica en el empleo de prótesis esofágicas cubiertas de doble malla (PECDM) (modelo Niti S™ DOUBLE™ Esophageal Metal Stent) en pacientes con fístula o perforación esofágica.Material y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo, descriptivo y unicéntrico, donde se incluyen pacientes con diagnóstico de fístula o perforación esofágica, desde noviembre 2010 hasta octubre 2018. Como objetivo primario, se evaluará su eficacia en términos de éxito técnico. Como objetivo secundario, se analizará su perfil de seguridad.Resultados: Se incluyeron inicialmente un total de 31 pacientes, siendo 8 de ellos excluidos por fallecimiento por causas ajenas a la técnica. Se detectó un éxito técnico del 100%, con un éxito primario del 75% tras la recolocación de la prótesis. Entre sus complicaciones, la migración ocurrió en un 21,7% de los pacientes (n=5), resolviéndose vía endoscópica en el 100% de los casos.Conclusiones: Según nuestros hallazgos, las PECDM suponen una alternativa en el tratamiento de fístulas y perforaciones esofágicas, con una alta tasa de éxito en la resolución de fístulas y baja de complicaciones, en contraste con lo expuesto en las series publicadas. En todos los casos, la migración de la prótesis se resolvió mediante recolocación endoscópica, sin requerir nueva prótesis ni cirugía.(AU)


Introduction: The use of esophageal stents for the endoscopic management of esophageal leaks and perforations has become a usual procedure. One of its limitations is its high migration rate. To solve this incovenience, the double-layered covered esophageal stents have become an option.Objectives: To analyse our daily practice according to the usage of double-layered covered esophageal metal stents (DLCEMS) (Niti S™ DOUBLE™ Esophageal Metal Stent Model) among patients diagnosed of esophageal leak or perforation.Methods: Retrospective, descriptive and unicentric study, with inclusion of patients diagnosed of esophageal leak or perforation, from November 2010 until October 2018. The main aim is to evaluate the efficacy of DLCEMS, in terms of primary success and technical success. The secondary aim is to evaluate their (the DLCEMS) safety profile.Results: Thirty-one patients were firstly included. Among those, 8 were excluded due to mortality not related to the procedure. Following stent placement, technical success was reached in 100% of the cases, and primary success, in 75% (n=17). Among the complications, stent migration was present in 21.7% of the patients (n=5), in whom the incident was solved by endoscopic means.Conclusions: According to our findings, DLCEMS represent an alternative for esophageal leak and perforation management, with a high success rate in leak and perforation resolutions and low complication rate, in contrast to the published data. The whole number of migrations were corrected by endoscopic replacement, without the need of a new stent or surgery.(AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: debido al uso de técnicas de imagen de alta resolución se ha incrementado el diagnóstico incidental de la compresión del tronco celiaco por el ligamento arcuato mediano. Si tenemos en cuenta que en solo un 1 % de los casos se produce sintomatología, su hallazgo casual puede llevar a diagnósticos erróneos en pacientes con sintomatología a nivel abdominal. Caso clínico:presentamos el caso de un varón de 47 años con dolor abdominal pospandrial secundario a una perforación esofágica que inicialmente pasó desapercibida, e imágenes en angiografía por tomografía computarizada sugestivas de síndrome de ligamento arcuato mediano, con abundante circulación colateral, pero sin signos de sufrimiento de asas ni trombosis arterial. Discusión:el síndrome del ligamento arcuato mediano es una patología muy infrecuente y, en su mayor parte, solo constituye una imagen radiológica; por ello es necesario descartar cualquier otra patología antes de identificarlo como el responsable de cualquier cuadro clínico digestivo.(AU)


Background: due to high resolution imaging techniques there has been an increase in incidental diagnosis of celiac trunk compression by median arcuate ligament. In fact, only 1 % of the cases of abdominal pain are attached to coeliac trunk compression. Therefore, its incidental finding might lead to a misdiagnosis in those patients with abdominal symptoms. Case report:we report a case of a 47 year-old male with abdominal post-pandrial pain, as a result of an esophageal perforation which was initially misdiagnosed, and image techniques suggesting a median arcuate ligament syndrome, with abundant collateral circulation but without signs of intestinal ischemia or arterial thrombosis. Discussion:median arcuate ligament syndrome is very uncommon and it is mainly a radiological image finding. Thus it is needed to rule out any other digestive pathology before median arcuate ligament syndrome is diagnosed in patients with abdominal symptoms.(AU)

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To describe the radiologic findings of extrapulmonary air in the chest and to review atypical and unusual causes of extrapulmonary air, emphasizing the importance of the diagnosis in managing these patients. CONCLUSION: In this article, we review a series of cases collected at our center that manifest with extrapulmonary air in the thorax, paying special attention to atypical and uncommon causes. We discuss the causes of extrapulmonary according to its location: mediastinum (spontaneous pneumomediastinum with pneumorrhachis, tracheal rupture, dehiscence of the bronchial anastomosis after lung transplantation, intramucosal esophageal dissection, Boerhaave syndrome, tracheoesophageal fistula in patients with esophageal tumors, bronchial perforation and esophagorespiratory fistula due to lymph-node rupture, and acute mediastinitis), pericardium (pneumopericardium in patients with lung tumors), cardiovascular (venous air embolism), pleura (bronchopleural fistulas, spontaneous pneumothorax in patients with malignant pleural mesotheliomas and primary lung tumors, and bilateral pneumothorax after unilateral lung biopsy), and thoracic wall (infections, transdiaphragmatic intercostal hernia, and subcutaneous emphysema after lung biopsy).

RESUMO

Resumen La perforación esofágica espontánea es una forma rara de ruptura del grosor de la pared del esófago sano, de manera no traumática. Es característico verla en pacientes de mediana edad, con obesidad y alcohólicos, que tienen episodios violentos de náuseas y vómitos. El tratamiento de la perforación esofágica espontánea depende de varios factores, como la etiología, sitio de la perforación, tiempo transcurrido desde la perforación hasta el diagnóstico, el grado de la contaminación del peritoneo o mediastino, comorbilidades, y estado general del paciente. En este artículo se presenta el caso de un paciente con enfisema subcutáneo en la parte superior del tórax, cuello y cara; con taquicardia de 115 latidos por minuto, hemograma con 18 mil leucocitos con predominio de neutrófilos. Se le realizaron radiografías de tórax y senos paranasales, donde se observa aire entre partes blandas y hueso. Se le realiza tratamiento quirúrgico con cierre de la perforación por toracotomía izquierda, se deja alimentación por sonda nasogástrica y antibióticos por 7 días.


Abstract Spontaneous esophageal perforation is a rare form of non-traumatic rupture of the thickness of the wall of the healthy esophagu. It is observed in middle-aged, obese, and alcoholic patients who have violent episodes of nausea and vomiting. Treatment of spontaneous esophageal perforation depends on several factors, such as the etiology, site of the perforation, time from perforation to diagnosis, degree of contamination of the peritoneum or mediastinum, comorbidities, and general condition of the patient. This article presents the case of a patient with subcutaneous emphysema in the upper part of the chest, neck and face; with a heart rate of 115 beats per minute, with a blood count of 18,000 leukocytes with a predominance of neutrophils. X-rays of the chest and paranasal sinuses were performed, where air is observed between soft tissue and bone. Surgical treatment is performed with closure of the perforation by left thoracotomy, feeding by nasogastric tube and antibiotics is left for 7 days.

RESUMO

Los diferentes reportes de consumo de sustancias evidencian cómo el consumo de alcohol afecta diferentes órganos y sistemas; según el tiempo de presentación hay riesgos agudos y crónicos. Dentro de las complicaciones agudas gastrointestinales asociadas al consumo de alcohol está el síndrome de Boerhaave consistente en una ruptura esofágica espontánea. Es importante identificar este síndrome porque se relaciona con alta mortalidad debido a la amplia gama de signos y síntomas que produce, como vómito, disnea, taquipnea, taquicardia y dolor esternal, que pueden generar confusión con otras enfermedades como el tromboembolismo pulmonar. El objetivo de este reporte es pre-sentar el primer caso clínico en Colombia de un paciente con síndrome de Boerhaave como complicación del consumo de alcohol, ya que es importante que el personal de salud reconozca los factores de riesgo que lo desencadenan.


Numerous reports of substance use show how alcohol consumption affects different organs and systems; related risks can be acute and chronic, depending on the time of presentation. Among the acute gastrointestinal complications associated with alcohol consumption is Boerhaave syndrome, which consists of a spontaneous esophageal rupture. It is important to identify this pathology because it is associated with high mortality due to the wide range of signs and symptoms that it produces such as vomiting, dyspnea, tachypnea, tachycardia, and sternal pain, which can lead to confusion with other diseases like pulmonary thromboembolism and may therefore delay proper and timely diagnostic. The objective of this report is to present the first clinical case reported in Colombia of a patient who suffered from Boerhaave syndrome secondary to chronic alcohol consumption and to sensitize the health personnel about the importance of recognizing alcohol consumption as a risk factor for this complication.


Os diferentes relatos de uso de substâncias mostram como o consumo de álcool afeta diferentes órgãos e sistemas; dependendo da época de apresentação, existem riscos agudos e crônicos. Entre as complicações gastrointestinais agudas associadas ao con-sumo de álcool está a síndrome de Boerhaave, que consiste em uma ruptura esofágica espontânea. É importante identificar essa síndrome, pois está associada a alta mortalidade devido à ampla gama de sinais e sintomas que produz, como vômitos, dispneia, taquipneia, taquicardia e dor esternal, que podem levar à confusão com outras doenças, como tromboembolismo pulmonar. O objetivo deste relatório é apresentar o primeiro caso clínico na Colômbia de um paciente com síndrome de Boerhaave como uma complicação do consumo de álcool, pois é importante que o pessoal de saúde reconheça os fatores de risco que a desencadeiam.

RESUMO

La perforación esofágica es la más letal de todas las perforaciones del aparato digestivo. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 65 años que acude a urgencias por un cuadro clínico de dolor torácico, vómitos e hipotensión. Se le realizó tomografía computarizada por sospecha de síndrome aórtico agudo, con hallazgos sugerentes de perforación esofágica. El síndrome de Boerhaave consiste en la rotura longitudinal del esófago sobre una pared macroscópicamente sana. Su tratamiento definitivo se realiza con cirugía durante las primeras 24 horas. El síndrome de Boerhaave debe considerarse como complicación posible en los pacientes con dolor epigástrico y vómitos, ya que es una emergencia quirúrgica con alta morbimortalidad.Esophageal perforation is the most lethal of all perforations of the digestive system. 65-year-old male who goes to the emergency department due to clinical symptoms of chest pain, vomiting and hypotension, who underwent CT scan for suspected acute aortic syndrome, with suggestive findings of esophageal perforation. Boerhaave syndrome consists of the longitudinal rupture of the esophagus on a macroscopically healthy wall. Its definitive treatment is performed with surgery during the first 24 hours. Boerhaave syndrome should be considered as a possible complication in patients with epigastric pain and vomiting, as it is a surgical emergency with high morbidity and mortality.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND AIM: Enteric perforations and fistulas are difficult to manage due to comorbidities, poor nutritional status, and anatomic challenges related to multiple interventions in those patients. The use of endoscopic methods as a nonsurgical approach is increasing. The aim of the present study was to describe the clinical experience with the use of the Ovesco Over-The-Scope Clip system in the closure of perforations, fistulas, and other indications in the digestive tract at a tertiary care hospital center. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A case series was carried out on patients that underwent lesion closure with the Ovesco clip, within the time frame of January 2015 to December 2017. RESULTS: The Ovesco clip was used for closure in 14 patients ranging in age from 21-90 years, with different indications: iatrogenic perforations; anastomotic leaks and fistulas; tracheoesophageal fistulas; and esophagogastric perforation. Technical success was achieved in 100% of the patients and clinical success in 78.57%. No complications were reported. CONCLUSIONS: The Ovesco Over-The-Scope Clip system is a safe and effective method for managing gastrointestinal acute perforations and fistulas.

RESUMO

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 30 pacientes con mediastinitis aguda por perforación esofágica, operados en el Hospital Provincial Docente Clinicoquirúrgico Saturnino Lora Torres de Santiago de Cuba, con vistas a caracterizarles desde los puntos de vista clínico, diagnóstico y quirúrgico, desde enero de 1990 hasta agosto de 2016. La incidencia de la enfermedad fue de 37,9 por cada 100 000 habitantes con predominio de los pacientes jóvenes, en los cuales la esofagoscopia terapéutica por cuerpo extraño de difícil extracción fue la causa más frecuente de la perforación torácica, acompañada de síntomas y signos de síndrome esofágico y de sepsis, asociada a la presencia de estafilococos y estreptococos. La tomografía computarizada constituyó el examen de mayor valor para el diagnóstico, en tanto, los diferentes hallazgos durante la intervención quirúrgica estuvieron en dependencia del grado de infección mediastinal. Se necesita un conocimiento exhaustivo de los antecedentes, la clínica y posibles resultados de los exámenes complementarios para asumir una conducta rápida y eficaz, a fin de lograr la disminución de la mortalidad por dicha afección(AU)


A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 30 patients with acute mediastinitis due to esophageal perforation, who were surgically intervened at Saturnino Lora Torres Teaching Clinical Surgical Provincial Hospital was carried out in Santiago de Cuba from January, 1990 to August, 2016, aimed at characterizing them from the clinical, diagnostic and surgical points of view. The incidence of the disease was 37.9 out of 100 000 inhabitants with the young patients prevalence, in which the therapeutic esophagoscopy due to strange body of difficult extraction was the most frequent cause in the thoracic perforation, accompanied by symptoms and signs of esophageal syndrome and sepsis, associated with the staphylococci and streptococci presence. The computerized axial tomography constituted the exam of more value for the diagnosis, as long as, the different findings during the surgical intervention were in dependence of the grade of mediastinal infection. An exhaustive knowledge of the history, clinic and possible results of the complementary exams is necessary to assume a quick and effective behaviour, in order to achieve the decrease of mortality due to this disorder.

The incidence of the disease was 37.9 out of 100 000 inhabitants with the young patients prevalence, in which the therapeutic esophagoscopy due to strange body of difficult extraction was the most frequent cause in the thoracic perforation, accompanied by symptoms and signs of esophageal syndrome and sepsis, associated with the staphylococci and streptococci presence. The computerized axial tomography constituted the exam of more value for the diagnosis, as long as, the different findings during the surgical intervention were in dependence of the grade of mediastinal infection. An exhaustive knowledge of the history, clinic and possible results of the complementary exams is necessary to assume a quick and effective behaviour, in order to achieve the decrease of mortality due to this disorder

RESUMO

Introducción: la mediastinitis aguda constituye una complicación grave de la perforación esofágica. No existen clasificaciones ni pautas generales para su tratamiento. Objetivo: desarrollar una clasificación evolutiva, y un algoritmo de tratamiento quirúrgico. Métodos: se efectuó una investigación en el Hospital Provincial Saturnino Lora, de Santiago de Cuba, desde 1990 hasta el 2014. Se utilizó la prueba chi cuadrado de homogeneidad para la validación de los resultados, así como el porcentaje como medida de resumen y el calcula de las tasas de incidencia y de mortalidad. El estudio incluyó dos diseños metodológicos: el primero, de desarrollo tecnológico, para la elaboración de la clasificación y el algoritmo de tratamiento, y un cuasiexperimento, para la aplicación del algoritmo. Resultados: se identificó que en los estados más severos de la mediastinitis aguda, la mortalidad es más elevada. La carga de mortalidad para el primer grupo de pacientes fue del 77,7 por ciento y descendió al 22,3 por ciento en el grupo tratado con el algoritmo (decremento del riesgo del 64,8 por ciento). Conclusiones: la clasificación evolutiva pauta la implementación del algoritmo de tratamiento quirúrgico de la enfermedad. La aplicación del algoritmo de tratamiento quirúrgico de la mediastinitis aguda por perforación esofágica permite disminuir la carga de morbilidad. En consecuencia, disminuye de forma relevante el riesgo de morir por esta enfermedad(AU)


Introduction: acute mediastinitis is a serious complication of esophageal perforation. There are no classifications or general guidelines for its treatment. Objective: to develop an evolutionary classification and a surgical treatment algorithm. Methods: aresearch was carried out at Saturnino Lora Provincial Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, from 1990 to 2014. The chi-square homogeneity test was used for the validation of the results, as well as the percentage as a summary measure and the calculation of incidence rates and mortality. The study included two methodological designs: the first, technological development, for the elaboration of the classification and the treatment algorithm, and a quasi-experiment for the application of the algorithm. Results: in the more severe states of acute mediastinitis, mortality was identified as higher. The mortality load for the first group of patients was 77.7 percent and decreased to 22.3 percent in the group treated with the algorithm (risk reduction of 64.8 percent). Conclusions: the evolutionary classification guides the implementation of the surgical treatment algorithm of the disease. The application of the surgical treatment algorithm of acute mediastinitis through esophageal perforation allows reducing the burden of morbidity. Consequently, the risk of dying from this disease decreases significantly(AU)

RESUMO

En situaciones de urgencia, la cirugía constituye un desafío a la pericia de los cirujanos, sobre todo cuando se trata de la perforación del esófago, que es una de las roturas orgánicas más graves y complejas de todo el tracto digestivo. Esto ocurre debido a las características anatómicas del órgano, que además, está rodeado de tejidos laxos y cavidades fasciales virtuales; por ello, su perforación permite que la infección se disemine rápidamente en el mediastino, la pleura y el pericardio, lo cual provoca que la mortalidad por mediastinitis aguda sobrepase el 60 por ciento(AU)


Surgery constitutes a challenge to surgeons skill, in situations of emergency mainly when it is an esophageal perforation which is one of the most serious and complex organic breaks in the whole digestive tract. This happens due to the anatomical characteristics of the organ that is also surrounded by relaxed tissues and virtual fascia cavities; reason why, its perforation allows the infection to be quickly disseminated in the mediastinal cavity, pleura and pericardium, which causes that mortality due to acute mediastinitis exceeds the 60 percent(AU)
