RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to revise the histopathologic types of neoplasias in the genitourinary tract and determine the frequency of 2 new entities included in the 2016 book of World Health Organization classification of renal tumors. It is not established so far whether these 2 recently described tumors are the most frequent in association with end-stage kidney disease. METHODS: In a retrospective analysis, we revised the histopathologic type of 37 genitourinary tumors from 21 patients in dialysis and/or submitted to renal transplantation from 2003 to 2016 aiming to find the frequency of acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma and clear cell papillary (tubulopapillary) renal cell carcinoma. RESULTS: From the total of 37 tumors, 34 were from native end-stage kidneys, 1 from the pelvis of the transplant kidney, and 2 from the urinary bladder. The frequencies from native kidneys were: papillary carcinoma, 13/34 (38.2%); papillary adenoma, 9/34 (26.5%); acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma, 4/34 (11.8%); oncocytoma, 3/34 (8.8%); conventional clear cell renal cell carcinoma, 3/34 (8.8%); and clear cell papillary (tubulopapillary) renal cell carcinoma, 2/34 (5.34%). The pelvis and urinary bladder tumors were high-grade urothelial carcinomas. The patients with urinary bladder tumors had been treated for polyomavirus infection. CONCLUSIONS: The frequencies of acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma and clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma were 11.8% and 5.9%, respectively. However, the spectrum of adenoma/carcinoma papillary tumors composed the majority, 64.7%, of tumors.

OBJECTIVES: We designed studies to test the hypotheses that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy should protect liver against subsequent ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury are scarce and controversial. The purpose of this study was to clarify some questions about the association of HBO with the processes of liver I/R. METHODS: We divided Wistar rats into 5 groups: (1) SHAM operation, (2) I/R, rats submitted to total pedicle ischemia for 30 minutes followed by 5 minutes of reperfusion; (3) HBO60I/R and (4) HBO120I/R, rats respectively submitted to 60 and 120 minutes of HBO therapy at 2 absolute atmospheres and immediately after submitted to the experimental protocol of I/R; (5) HBO120, rats submitted to 120 minutes of HBO therapy at 2 absolute atmospheres and then immediately after humanely killed. The experimental protocol included (1) serum levels of aspartate and alanine aminotransferase; (2) mitochondrial function; (3) tissue malondialdehyde (MDA); and (4) plasma nitrite/nitrate. Data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test and were considered significant P < 5%. RESULTS: The processes of liver ischemia/reperfusion caused tissue injury with hepatic mitochondrial functional impairment. A single exposure to 120 minutes of HBO caused an increase of tissue MDA. The time of HBO exposure as preconditioning before hepatic I/R is critical in the prevalence of beneficial or deleterious effects. Sixty minutes of hyperoxic preconditioning before liver I/R presents systemic benefits, but no significant tissue preservation. One hundred twenty minutes of hyperoxic preconditioning tissue liver benefits predominate compared with systemic benefits. CONCLUSIONS: The HBO preconditioning therapeutic benefits to liver I/R injury are time dependent, suggesting a therapeutic window that needs to be clearly defined in future studies.
