ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a morbidade cirúrgica pós-biópsia de linfonodo sentinela (BLS) ou dissecção axilar com (DA-NP) e sem preservação do nervo intercostobraquial (DA-NS). MÉTODOS: Fez-se estudo coorte prospectivo com 108 pacientes divididas em três grupos: BLS (n=35), DA-NP (n=36) e DA-NS (n=37). Foram avaliadas ocorrência de déficit sensorial, dor, linfedema, seroma e infecção no membro superior homolateral à cirurgia. Monofilamentos de Semmes-Weinstein foram usados para avaliar o déficit sensorial, perimetria braquial foi feita para avaliação da presença de linfedema e aplicado questionário de dor. Para análise estatística foram utilizados os testes ANOVA e Kruskal-Wallis. Foi feita análise bivariada e multivariada. RESULTADOS: Pelo menos uma complicação pós-cirúrgica, imediata ou tardia, ocorreu em 45/108 (41,7 por cento) pacientes avaliadas. A complicação mais comum foi dor. Houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os três grupos somente quanto ao déficit sensorial (p=0,04). Dor, linfedema e déficit sensorial ocorreram com maior freqüência no grupo DA-NS. As pacientes dos grupos BLS e DA-NP não apresentaram diferenças estatisticamente significantes para nenhuma das variáveis analisadas. A pesquisa com os monofilamentos mostrou sensibilidade cutânea preservada em 28/35 pacientes do grupo BLS, em 25/36 pacientes do grupo DA-NP e em 10/37 pacientes do grupo DA-NS (p<0,001). CONCLUSÃO: A secção do nervo está relacionada a maior déficit sensorial havendo diferença estatisticamente significante entre os três grupos, o que não demonstrou ser significante com os demais critérios avaliados dentre os grupos analisados.


BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the morbidity after sentinel node biopsy (SNB) and axillary dissection with (AD-NS) or without sparing the intercostobrachial nerve (AD-NOS). Methods: A prospective cohort study was performed on 108 patients divided into three groups: SNB (n=35), AD-NS (n=36) and AD-NOS (n=37). We evaluated the incidence of sensory loss, pain, lymphedema, seroma formation and infection in the arm homolateral to the breast surgery. Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments were used to assess the sensory loss; brachial perimetry was used to evaluate presence of lymphedema and a pain questionnaire was administered. ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis statistical tests were used. Bivariate and Multivariate analyses were performed. RESULTS: After surgery at least one complication was reported by 45/108 (41.7 percent) patients. Pain was the outcome more often reported by patients. In the three groups a significant difference was observed only regarding sensory loss (p=0.04). Pain, lymphedema, and sensory loss were more frequently found in the AD-NOS group. No significant difference was observed between SNB and AD-NS groups. Semmes-Weinstein monofilaments showed preservation of cutaneous sensitivity in 28/35 patients from the SNB group, in 25/36 patients from AD-NS group but in only 10/37 patients from AD-NOS group (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: The ICB section is associated with higher sensory loss, with statistically significant difference between the groups that were not shown to be significant with the others complications.
