ABSTRACT

Eosinophilic cystitis is a rare bladder disorder that was first reported in 1960 and can be diagnosed in children or adults. Its cause is unknown and usually presents with hematuria, supra pubic pain, sysuria and frequency. We have made an extensive literature review and we reported on 2 illustrative cases. The first case was a man presented with hematuria; a computed tomography, shown expansive process with a mass suggesting infiltration of the perivesical tissues. A biopsy was done and the pathological diagnosis was eosinophilic cystitis. The patient was treated with steroids. Later on, he had an episode of hematuria on the left ureteral orifice and a nephrouretectomy showed grade 2 urothelial carcinoma of the ureter. The second case is a child with neurogenic bladder due to myelomeningocele who had a cystostomy since the age of 5 months. Surgery was performed, including partial cystectomy with an ileal neobladder. The anatomopathological diagnosis was eosinophilic cystitis. The different classifications of eosinophilic cystitis were presented and discussed. The diagnosis of this entity can only be made by microscopic examination which shows mucosal edema or fibrosis, a polymorphous infiltrate rich in eosinophils and sometimes replacement of the bladder muscle by fibrotic tissue

ABSTRACT

Novos métodos tem sido preconizados para o tratamento da hérnia inguinal, o que torna imprescindível o uso das telas sintéticas. O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a reaçäo peritoneal induzida por duas telas de polipropileno macroporosas e monofilamentares quando colocadas no espaço pré-peritoneal. Neste experimento foram utilizados 60 ratos machos divididos em tres grupos: grupo P (tela prolene n=20), grupo T (tela teste, n=20) e grupo C(controle, n=20). Através de uma incisäo mediana obteve-se acesso ao espaço pré-peritonial, onde foi introduzido o fragmento da tela a ser testada, de 1cm. No grupo controlefoi apenas realizada a divulsäo do espaço pré-peritonial com pinças hemostáticas. Os animais dos tres grupos foram sacrificados no 30§ dia pós-operatório. Macroscopicamente foram avaliados: presença deseroma, abscessos, deslocamentos da tela e aderências. A análise histopatológica foi realizada mediante a observaçäo e quantificaçäo da reaçäo inflamatória aguda e crônica, fibrose e reaçäo de corpo estranho. Concluiu-se que a formaçäo de aderências, fibrose, reaçäo inflamatória e de corpo estranho das telas de polipropileno colocadas no espaço pré-peritoneal foram semelhantes àquelas do grupo controle, onde o espaço foi apenas divulsionado
