ABSTRACT

La rotura uterina es una complicación obstétrica infrecuente, pero potencialmente letal para la madre y el feto. Ocurre principalmente durante el segundo o tercer trimestre, asociada a factores de riesgo, entre los que destaca la cirugía uterina previa. Su aparición durante el primer trimestre es excepcional, constituyendo un desafío médico por su difícil diagnóstico diferencial y controversial manejo. Se presenta el caso de una paciente con rotura espontánea de útero grávido de 10 semanas de gestación, portadora de triple cicatriz anterior. El diagnóstico fue intraoperatorio, tras la descompensación hemodinámica de la paciente. El manejo incluyó el cierre primario de la lesión y observación posterior. Al sexto día se constata la muerte fetal y se efectúa el vaciamiento de la cavidad uterina. La falla de las medidas conservadoras obligó finalmente a realizar una histerectomía obstétrica. La histopatología informó placenta acreta.


Uterine rupture is an uncommon obstetric event, but still potentially lethal for the mother and the fetus. It presents mainly during the second or third trimester and is associated with several riskf actors, being a previous uterine scar the most important of them. Its presentation during the first trimester is exceptional, and it constitutes a medical challenge, because of its difficult differential diagnosis and controversial management. A case of a multiparous, previous triple scar woman is presented, with a spontaneous uterine rupture at 10 weeks of pregnancy. In this case the diagnosis was made during surgery, after the patient's hemodynamic decompensation. The management included primary closure of the lesion and observation; when fetal death was confirmed, dilatation and curettage of the cavity had to be performed. Because of the failure of conservative management, an obstetric hysterectomy was carried out. Histopathology reported placenta accreta.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Comparar la esterilización quirúrgica vía transumbilical en puérperas recientes con anestesia local versus anestesia regional. Método: Durante el período de estudio comprendido entre septiembre de 2003 a septiembre de 2004, se realizaron en el hospital Carlos Van Burén, 196 ligaduras posteriores a un parto vaginal. El grupo 1 (anestesia local) quedó constituido por 136 mujeres y el grupo 2 (anestesia regional) por 60 mujeres. Resultados: No hubo diferencias significativas entre los grupos analizados de las características obstétricas y antropométricas, tiempo operatorio, percepción del dolor y complicaciones postoperatorias. Hubo una reducción significativa en el período de latencia entre el parto y la salpingo-ligadura, de 30 horas en el grupo de anestesia local versus 62 horas en el de anestesia raquídea (p<0,00001) y en días de hospitalización de 2,2 versus 3,9 días (p<0,0001), respectivamente. Conclusiones: La esterilización quirúrgica realizada con anestesia local disminuyó de manera significativa el tiempo de latencia entre el parto y la ligadura y los días de hospitalización, permitiendo el retorno precoz de las madres a su ambiente familiar y una disminución de los costos asistenciales.


Objectives: To compare the tubal sterilization trough subumbilical incision performed with local anesthesia versus spinal anesthesia in the postpartum period. Methods: We perform 196 tubal sterilization procedures after a vaginal delivery. The study group 1 (local anesthesia) included 136 women and the study group 2 (spinal anesthesia) 60 women. Results: The study showed no statistical significant difference between the two groups, in the obstetrics and anthropometries characteristics, neither in the average surgical time, the pain score (measured with the analogue visual scale), or postoperative short term complications. The only statistically significant difference was found in the period of time between the vaginal delivery and the sterilization procedure (30 hours in group 1 and 62 hours in group 2, p<0.0001), and in the hospitalization number of days (2.2 days in group 1 and 3.9 days in group 2, p<0.0001). Conclusions: The transumbilical tubal sterilization under local anesthesia in postpartum period lowers the hospital stay and the time between childbirth and the surgical procedure an allowing the mothers an early return to their home, with less cost for the health system.
