RESUMO

Pleuropulmonary blastomas are rare, potentially aggressive embryonal cancers of the lung parenchyma and pleural surfaces that account for 0.25%-0.5% of primary pulmonary malignancies in children. Pleuropulmonary blastomas are classified as cystic (type I), mixed cystic and solid (type II), and solid (type III). Pleuropulmonary blastoma occurs in the same age group (0-6 years) as other more common solid tumors such as neuroblastoma and Wilms tumor. Differential diagnosis includes metastasis from Wilms tumor and macrocystic congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM). A key pathologic and genetic discriminator is the DICER1 germline mutation found in patients with pleuropulmonary blastoma. Imaging, histopathologic, and clinical data are important to use in conjunction in order to determine the diagnosis and risk stratification of pleuropulmonary blastomas. Survival varies from poor to good, depending on type. However, the spectrum of pleuropulmonary blastoma is insufficiently understood due to the variable presentation of this rare disease. We present a current review of the literature regarding pleuropulmonary blastomas in this article.

RESUMO

Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) is a developmental malformation of the lower respiratory tract. We report the case of a male newborn diagnosed with cystic lung disease during prenatal ultrasound. A cesarean section was performed at the 32nd gestational week because of premature rupture of the membranes, and soon after the delivery the newborn developed respiratory failure and died. The aim of this study is to report an autopsy case because of its rarity, and to briefly discuss the CPAM subtypes and differential diagnosis of cystic lung diseases of childhood.

RESUMO

INTRODUCCIÓN: La malformación adenomatoidea quística (MAQ) es una patología congénita del pulmón poco frecuente y su diagnóstico prenatal es factible en la mayoría de los casos. Existen discrepancias en cuanto al manejo prenatal y tratamiento postparto. OBJETIVO: Analizar una serie de casos de MAQ diagnosticados prenatalmente, evaluando los hallazgos ecográficos y la evolución fetal y post natal. PACIENTES Y MÉTODO: Estudio retrospectivo de todos los casos diagnosticados prenatalmente por ecografìa entre 2005 y 2016 en dos hospitales de referencia. Los exámenes de ultrasonido fueron realizados utilizando ecógrafos de alta resolución, Toshiba Xario y Voluson 730 Expert Pro, con seguimiento desde el diagnóstico hasta el parto. Las variables analizadas incluyeron la edad gestacional en el momento del diagnóstico, las características de la lesión pulmonar, las malformaciones asocia das, el estudio citogenético, la evolución del embarazo, el tipo de parto, presencia de distrés respira torio, necesidad de pruebas de imagen complementarias, evolución clínica pediátrica y tratamientos postnatales necesarios. Se consideró resolución la desaparición total de la lesión ecográfica prenatal o que la radiografía torácica postnatal no mostrara lesión alguna. RESULTADOS: Se identificaron pre natalmente 17 casos. La evolución varía desde la resolución prenatal de la lesión hasta la persistencia de la misma tras el nacimiento. Tres pacientes decidieron abortar voluntariamente por hallazgos ecográficos de mal pronóstico. De los catorce casos restantes no hubo ningún caso de muerte fetal ni neonatal, un caso requirió cirugía tras el nacimiento y cuatro pacientes presentaron sintomatología leve durante el primer año de vida. Se ha reportado un caso de falso negativo con muerte neonatal, que la necropsia informó como MAQ tipo 0. CONCLUSIONES: Esta malformación pulmonar presenta buen pronóstico, excluyendo los casos con hidrops fetal. La ecografía bidimensional suele ser suficiente para el diagnóstico y el seguimiento. La tomografía computarizada es la técnica de elección para confirmar la resolución de las lesiones tras el nacimiento. El tratamiento quirúrgico es preferible sobre el manejo conservador, aunque se desconoce si las complicaciones potenciales de esta patología, aun siendo asintomática, justifican la morbilidad quirúrgica.

INTRODUCTION: Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a rare congenital lung di sease, and in the most of cases, prenatal diagnosis is feasible. There are discrepancies regarding pre natal management and postpartum treatment. OBJECTIVE: To analyze prenatally diagnosed CCAM in our hospitals, in order to evaluate ultrasound findings with fetal and postnatal evolution. PATIENTS AND METHOD: Retrospective study of all cases diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound between 2005 and 2016 in two reference hospitals. The ultrasounds were performed using high-resolution ultrasound scanners, Toshiba Xario and Voluson 730 Expert Pro, with follow-up from diagnosis to delivery. The variables analyzed included gestational age at diagnosis, the characteristics of the lung lesion, associated malformations, cytogenetic study, the evolution of pregnancy, type of delivery, presence of respiratory distress, need for complementary imaging tests, pediatric clinical course, and necessary postnatal treatments. It was considered a resolution the total disappearance of the lesion in the pre natal ultrasound or that the postnatal chest X-ray showed no lesion. RESULTS: 17 cases were prenatally diagnosed. The evolution ranges from the prenatal resolution of the lesion to the persistence after bir th. Three patients voluntarily decided to have an abortion due to ultrasound findings of poor progno sis. Of the fourteen remaining cases there were no cases of fetal or neonatal deaths, one case required surgery after birth and four patients had mild symptoms during the first year of life. One case of false negative with neonatal death has been reported which necropsy reported as CCAM type 0. CONCLUSIONS: This pulmonary malformation presents good prognosis, excluding cases with fetal hydrops. Two-dimensional ultrasound is usually enough for diagnosis and follow-up. Computed tomography is the technique of choice to confirm the resolution of lesions after birth. Surgical treatment is pre ferable over conservative management, although it is unknown if the potential complications of this disease, even when asymptomatic, justify surgical morbidity.

RESUMO

Objective: To describe 16 patients treated for a congenital pulmonary anomaly named congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) or congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) in Roberto del Río children S Hospital. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patienes who had had surgery for CPAM/CCAM from January 2000 to July 2014. Results: We found 16 cases, 9 of them were males. Nine had surgery within the first year of life (5 of them within 3 weeks of life). According to Stocker 's classification CPAM/CCAM was type 1 in 9 patients, and type 2 in 7. Diagnosis was based on antenatal ultrasonography s (n = 10), persistent abnormalities in Chest X-Ray (n = 4), recurrent pneumonia (n = 1) and incidental radiological findings (n = 1). Computed Tomography (CT) was performed in 13 patients, CT angiography in 2 and only chest x-ray in one. The lesions were located in right upper lobe (3), right middle lobe (2), right lower lobe (4), left upper lobe (4) and left lower lobe (3). One patient had pectus excavatum and another one had ventricuar septal defect. They all had open thoracotomy with lobectomy of the affected area. Postoperatively was uneventful except for transient lobar atelectasis in 2 patients. There was no mortality. Conclusions: We emphasize the early diagnosis and good outcome of our patients treated which this disease. Our findings are consistent with those that has been reported in the literature.

RESUMO

The use of prenatal ultrasonography has improve the detection of fetal abnormalities, which affects the perception about the natural history and evolution of them, changing the management of the fetus and neonate. Today, it is possible to perform an early prenatal diagnosis, and be treated even intrauterine with high rates of success. Such is the case of Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation (CCAM), characterized by abnormal proliferation and dilatation of the terminal structures of the airway, generating multiple cysts of diferent sizes and locations. The CCAM can be asymptomatic until adulthood, but sometimes it is presented as an adverse perinatal outcome, manifested with ascites, hydrothorax, hydrops and hypoplasia of the affected lung. We report a case of a pregnant women, 32-year-old, diagnosed on the 18 week pregnancy by ultrasound Type 3 Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation disease. Treated with an intrauterine intervention percutaneous fetal sclerotherapy successfully.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify the incidence of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung (CCAM) at birth; to evaluate prenatal and perinatal history, association with clinical and sociodemographic variables and concordance between CT scan results and anatomopathology studies. METHOD: Descriptive study based on the registry of malformed newborns, deliveries and patients records between August 1990 and November 2010. Ultrasonic, clinical, imaging and anatomopathologic information were studied. Association studies were made using chi-square test. Kappa was used to correlate CT scan to anatomopathology results. RESULTS: The incidence was 1:1980 (25/49 503). The mean gestational age for detection by ultrasonography was 24 ± 3.7 weeks. There were progression of the lesions in 11 cases (44%), stability in 6 (24%) and regression in 8 (32%). Three cases of CCAM followed due to polyhydramnios/hydrops died. There were neither familial cases nor association with sex, weight, age or maternal parity (p > 0.15). Radiographic abnormalities were found in 22/23 studied patients. The correspondence between CT scan and anatomopathologic was 0.77 (Kappa). CONCLUSIONS: The incidence was higher than the one described in the literature, probably, because it is a reference center in fetal medicine. The prenatal lesion involution rate was 32%, an intermediate proportion. There was good concordance between CT scan and anatomopathologic results. The polyhydramnios/hydrops were predictive of worst prognosis.

RESUMO

The purpose of this paper is to examine the case of a 50-day-old patient with an unusual and severe presentation of a rare disease: congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung. The infant was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit with respiratory failure and circulatory collapse refractory to intravenous fluids and inotropic drugs. Chest X-ray showed a radiolucent homogeneous image in the right lung base, suggesting bullous lesion of the right lower lobe associated with ipsilateral pneumothorax. Drainage was performed by placing a chest tube with subsequent clinical improvement. Later the cyst was resected by right lower lobectomy; the histopathological diagnosis was congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation type 4 (Stocker classification). The patient evolved favorably.

RESUMO

El propósito de este trabajo es examinar el caso de un paciente con una forma de presentación no habitual y grave de una patología poco frecuente, como la malformación adenomatoidea quística pulmonar. Se trata de un lactante de 50 días de vida que ingresó en la unidad de cuidados intensivos pediátricos con insuficiencia respiratoria y colapso circulatorio refractario a la expansión de volumen y los inotrópicos. La radiografía de tórax mostró una imagen radiolúcida, homogénea, en la base pulmonar derecha, que parecía corresponder a una lesión bullosa en el lóbulo inferior derecho, asociada a neumotórax homolateral. Se realizó drenaje con colocación de un tubo de avenamiento pleural y se observó una mejoría clínica posterior. Se efectuó la resección del quiste mediante lobectomía inferior derecha; el diagnóstico histopatológico fue malformación adenomatoidea quística de la vía aérea de tipo 4 (clasificación de Stocker). El paciente evolucionó favorablemente.
