RESUMO
We report the first case of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) caused by Actinobaculum massiliense. A 53-year-old woman attended the emergency department with symptoms compatible with a PID episode, finally resolved by intramuscular antibiotic treatment. Actinobaculum sp. was isolated by culture, and A. massiliense was confirmed by matrix assisted laser desorption time-of-flight mass spectrometry and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Only a few cases of A. massiliense infections have been reported, and the pathogenesis of infections by these bacteria is poorly understood. The introduction of new diagnostic methods into hospital routines will improve the detection of new and little-studied pathogens.

La técnica de la conización es un procedimiento muy empleado actualmente para el tratamiento de lesiones neoplasicas del cuello uterino; sin embargo, en la literatura sigue existiendo controversia acerca de cuál es el mejor método analgésico para su realización. OBJETIVO: conocer el grado de satisfacción y tolerancia al dolor de las pacientes sometidas a conizaciones ambulatorias utilizando anestesia intracervical. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: se llevó a cabo un estudio observacional de 55 conizaciones realizadas en nuestro centro; los criterios de inclusión fueron todas aquellas pacientes candidatas a una conización ambulatoria. Se hicieron un total de cuatro cuestionarios: dos a las pacientes y otros dos a los médicos que intervinieron en el procedimiento, uno el día de la conización y otro en la consulta de revisión. RESULTADOS: la mayoría de las pacientes definieron el dolor durante la intervención como tolerable o inferior, siendo la duración del dolor posquirúrgico muy escasa. El grado de satisfacción tanto de las pacientes como de los profesionales al realizar la técnica fue muy bueno. El sangrado posquirúrgico se limitó a la primera semana en la mayoría, lo que se correlaciona con una buena cicatrización objetivada en la revisión, sin que esto supusiera una disminución del tamaño del cono obtenido. CONCLUSIONES: la conización ambulatoria con la aplicación de anestesia local intracervical como método de analgesia es una técnica catalogada como de fácil aplicación por los profesionales y con muy buena colaboración y tolerancia por parte de las pacientes
The conization technique is a procedure currently used to treat neoplastic lesions of the cervix; however, in the literature there is still controversy about which is the best analgesic method for its realization. OBJECTIVE: To determine the degree of satisfaction and pain tolerance of patients undergoing ambulatory conization using intracervical anesthesia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An observational study of 55 conizations made in our center was carried out; the inclusion criteria were all those patients who were candidates for ambulatory conization. A total of four questionnaires were made: Two to the patients and another two to the doctors who took part in the procedure, one on the day of the conization and the other one in the review consultation. RESULTS: The majority of the patients defined the pain during the intervention as tolerable or inferior, the duration of the postsurgical pain being very scarce. The degree of satisfaction of both the patients and the professionals when performing the technique was very good. Postsurgical bleeding was limited to the first week in the majority, which correlates with a good healing objectified in the review, without this implying a decrease in the size of the cone obtained. CONCLUSIONS: Ambulatory conization with the application of intracervical local anesthesia as an analgesic method is a technique cataloged as easy to apply by professionals and with very good collaboration and tolerance on the part of patients
