RESUMO

Purpose To analyze, in aged obese patients, the weight loss, comorbidity control, and safety postoperative complications of bariatric surgery by Roux-en-Y gastric bypass technique. Methods Twenty-seven patients who underwent laparoscopic weight-reducing gastroplasty with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass to treat obesity were included. All patients were ≥ 60 years old at the time of surgery. The Wilcoxon test was used for statistical analysis, and a p-value ≤0.05it was considered significant. Results Ten (90.9%) patients with dyslipidemia were cured (p < 0.001). Nine (81.8%) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had total improvement and 2 (18.2%) had partial improvement (p = 0.003). In 23 patients with systemic arterial hypertension, 9 (39.1%) achieved total improvement and 14 (60.9%) partial improvement (p = 0.140). Five (71.4%) patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome were cured (p = <0.001). For other comorbidities, no partial improvement or cure was shown. Conclusions Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in obese elderly patients can be performed safely and with low morbidity and mortality rates. The benefits of weight loss and reduced comorbidities are promising and like those of the younger population.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the quality of the sexual function of women with suspected deep infiltrating endometriosis. METHODS: A cross-sectional, observational and prospective study was conducted between May 2015 and August 2016, in which 67 patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis, suspected or diagnosed, were assessed for epidemiological and clinical characteristics, such as pain level through a visual analog scale (VAS), features of deep infiltrating endometriosis lesions and score on the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) before the onset of treatment. The statistical analysis was performed using the software STATA version 12.0 (StataCorp LLC, College Station, TX, USA) to compare the variables through multiple regression analysis. RESULTS: The average age of the patients was 39.2 years old; most patients were symptomatic (92.5%); and the predominant location of the deep infiltrating lesions was on the rectosigmoid colon (50%), closely followed by the retrocervical region (48.3%). The median overall score on the FSFI was 23.4; in 67.2% of the cases the score was ≤ 26.5 (cutoff point for sexual dysfunction). Deep dyspareunia (p = 0.000, confidence interval [CI]: 0.64-0.83) and rectosigmoid endometriosis lesions (p = 0.008, CI: 0.72-0.95) showed significant correlation with lower FSFI scores, adjusted by bladder lesion, patients' age and size of lesions. Deep dyspareunia (p = 0.003, CI: 0.49-0.86) also exhibited significant correlation with FSFI pain domain, adjusted by cyclic bowel pain, vaginal lesion and use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog. These results reflect the influence of deep dyspareunia on the sexual dysfunction of the analyzed population. CONCLUSION: Most patients exhibited sexual dysfunction, and deep dyspareunia was the pelvic painful symptom that showed correlation with sexual dysfunction.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a qualidade da função sexual em pacientes com suspeita de endometriose profunda infiltrativa. MéTODOS: Foi realizado um estudo observacional transversal prospectivo entre maio de 2015 e agosto de 2016, no qual foram analisados os dados clínicos e epidemiológicos de 67 pacientes com endometriose profunda presuntiva ou diagnosticada, níveis de dor através de escala visual analógica (EVA) e Índice de Função Sexual Feminina (questionário IFSF) antes do início do tratamento. A análise estatística foi realizada utilizando o programa estatístico STATA, na versão 12.0 (StataCorp LLC, College Station, TX, USA), para comparar as variáveis por meio de regressão múltipla. RESULTADOS: A idade média foi de 39,2 anos; houve predominância de mulheres sintomáticas (92,5%) e da localização de lesões de endometriose profunda em retossigmoide (50%) seguida pela topografia retrocervical (48,3%). A pontuação total no IFSF mostrou uma mediana de 23,4, e em 67,2% das mulheres a pontuação foi ≤ 26,55 (cut-off que indica disfunção sexual). Dispareunia (p = 0.000, intervalo de confiança [IC]: 0.64­0.83) e lesão endometriótica em retossigmoide (p = 0.008, IC: 0.72­0.95) exibiram uma relação estatisticamente significante com valores baixos de pontuação no IFSF, ajustados por lesão em bexiga, idade da paciente e tamanho da lesão. A dispareunia de profundidade também mostrou correlação significante com o domínio dor do IFSF ajustado por dor cíclica intestinal, lesão vaginal e uso de análogo de hormônio liberador de gonadotrofina (GnRH). Os resultados refletem a influência da dispareunia de profundidade na disfunção sexual da população do estudo. CONCLUSãO: A maioria das pacientes apresentava disfunção sexual e o sintoma mais relacionado a esta disfunção foi dispareunia de profundidade.

RESUMO

Modelo de estudo: Relato de caso. Objetivo: Relatar o caso de um paciente com tumores gástricos sincrônicos e demonstrar a importância sobre o reconhecimento desta coexistência, tendo em vista que, normalmente, a sincronicidade só é detectada após o procedimento cirúrgico. Método: Estudo do prontuário médico do paciente pertencente ao Hospital do Servidor Público de São Paulo. Resultados: Apresentamos o caso de um paciente de 69 anos, sexo masculino, apresentando sintomas dispépticos, perda ponderal e astenia. Foram realizados exames laboratoriais, tomografia computadorizada e endoscopia digestiva alta. Os resultados demonstraram que se tratava da associação de duas lesões gástricas de aspectos diferentes, um adenocarcinoma gástrico com um tumor estromal gastrointestinal (GIST), próximos, todavia sem colisão. Conclusão: O paciente foi submetido a uma gastrectomia total com reconstrução em Y de Roux. Importância do problema: O câncer gástrico é a maior causa de mortalidade de natureza neoplásica, tendo em vista sua elevada frequência e por ser oligossintomático. Apesar de os dois serem muito diferentes quanto aos seus aspectos histopatológicos, podem ocorrer sincronicamente no estômago. É de grande importância a identificação pré-operatória da sincronicidade destes tumores, para um melhor aperfeiçoamento do planejamento cirúrgico. Comentários: No atual momento, ainda não há um exame específico para o rastreio de GIST, levando a dificuldade diagnóstica deste tumor. Neste caso, foi realizado o diagnóstico de adenocarcinoma, porém, apesar de ter sido evidenciado duas lesões gástricas distintas no exame de imagem, o diagnóstico final de GIST só pode ser feito com a análise anatomopatológica. (AU)

Objective: The aim of this report is to describe a case of a patient with synchronous gastric tumors and demonstrate the importance of identifying this coexistence before surgery, considering that synchronicity is generally detected only after the surgery. Methods: The medical records of patients from Servidor Público Estadual Hospital of São Paulo were analyzed. Results: We identified a case of a 69-year-old male patient who presented with symptoms of dyspepsia, weight loss, and asthenia. The patient underwent serum laboratory tests, abdominal computed tomography, and upper digestive endoscopy. Analysis of the results revealed that the symptomatology was related to the association of two different gastric lesions, gastric adenocarcinoma and a nearby gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), although without collision. Conclusion: The patient was submitted to a total gastrectomy with a Y-en-Roux reconstruction. Importance of the problem: Gastric cancer is the major cause of mortality of neoplastic nature, considering its high frequency and presentation of few symptoms. Although gastric adenocarcinoma and GIST are extremely different in their histopathological aspects, they can occur synchronously in the stomach. Preoperative identification of the synchronicity of these tumors is significantly important to improve surgical planning. Comments: Currently, there is a lack of a specific examination for screening GISTs, which explains the difficulty in diagnosing this tumor before the surgical procedure. In the present case, the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma was made despite the fact that two distinct gastric lesions were detected in the radiological imaging examination, and the final diagnosis of GIST was made only through anatomopathological analysis.(AU)

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Epiphrenic diverticulum is a rare disease associated with esophageal motor disorders that is usually asymptomatic and has a well-established surgical indication. We report a case of giant epiphrenic diverticulum in a 59-year-old symptomatic woman who was diagnosed after underwent complementary exams. Because of her symptoms, the surgical treatment was chosen, and esophageal diverticulectomy was performed along with laparoscopic cardiomyotomy and anterior partial fundoplication.

RESUMO O divertículo epifrênico é uma patologia rara associada a distúrbios motores esofágicos e, frequentemente, assintomática, tendo indicações cirúrgicas bem estabelecidas. Relatamos um caso de divertículo epifrênico gigante em paciente de 59 anos, sexo feminino, sintomática, diagnosticada por exames complementares. Devido à sintomatologia, optou-se por tratamento cirúrgico, sendo realizada a diverticulectomia esofágica com cardiomiotomia e fundoplicatura parcial anterior laparoscópica.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT An asymptomatic 79-year-old woman, with incidental finding on abdominal ultrasound of a solid nodule in the tail of the pancreas. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a 12mm solid tumor. The suggested diagnosis was pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. The pathological examination showed an intrapancreatic splenic tissue. This is a rare ectopic location of spleen tissue and it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic solid tumors.

RESUMO Mulher de 79 anos, com achado incidental em ultrassonografia de abdome de lesão sólida em cauda de pâncreas. Em ressonância magnética, foi confirmada lesão de 12mm. Foi aventada a hipótese diagnóstica de tumor neuroendócrino não secretor, sendo realizada pancreatectomia distal laparoscópica. Em estudo anatomopatológico, diagnosticou-se tecido esplênico, configurando baço acessório intrapancreático. Este tipo de manifestação topográfica de baço é rara, mas deve fazer parte dos diagnósticos diferenciais em tumores sólidos do pâncreas.
