ABSTRACT

This review corresponds to a general analysis of osteoporosis, with emphasis in calcium metabolism, the role of Vitamin D, as well as osteoporosis physiopathology, diagnosis and treatment. The second part (Osteoporosis. Part II) will describe the importance of osteoporosis in several digestive diseases (liver and gastrointestinal tract).


En esta revisión abordamos el tema osteoporosis en forma general, desarrollando principalmente el metabolismo del calcio, el rol de la vitamina D; así como la fisiopatología, el diagnóstico y tratamiento de la osteoporosis. En la segunda parte (Osteoporosis. Parte II ) se describirá la importancia de la osteoporosis en diversas enfermedades digestivas (hepáticas y del tubo digestivo).

ABSTRACT

The present review addresses liver and gastrointestinal diseases that are more frequently associated to osteopenia and osteoporosis. For each disease, we describe the prevalence and physiopathology of these bone metabolism conditions. The purpose is to create awareness of this scenario and prompt early analysis if these patients, and in other cases, to provide prophylaxis and treatment of these disorders.


En esta revisión se abordan las enfermedades hepáticas y del tubo digestivo que con mayor frecuencia se asocian a osteopenia y osteoporosis. En cada patología describimos la prevalencia y fisiopatología de estas afecciones del metabolismo óseo. El objetivo es dar a conocer esta realidad e inducir a que estos pacientes sean estudiados precozmente, en otros casos aplicar la profilaxis y tratar estos desórdenes.

ABSTRACT

Cases of intra-abdominal foreign bodies are rare and caused mainly by retained elements after surgery and by, in general, accidental swallowing and subsequent perforation of the gastrointestinal tract. We report the case of a 74 year-old female patient, presenting with fever, abdominal pain and weight loss. An abdominal TC showed the presence of a foreign body that had caused a perforation of duodenum and gallbladder neck; surgery showed that it was a 4 cm ‘twist-tie’. The description of the case presents differential diagnoses, based on a review of the literature. This is a rare event and corresponds to the third publication of a case of a twist-tie intra-abdominal foreign body, according to a review of other medical publications.


Los cuerpos extraños intraabdominales son infrecuentes y se deben en gran medida a accidentes quirúrgicos y a ingesta, en general, accidental y posterior perforación del tracto digestivo. Se reporta un caso de una mujer de 74 años con fiebre, dolor abdominal y baja de peso, cuyo estudio mediante tomografía computada de abdomen muestra un cuerpo extraño que perfora duodeno y el bacinete. La cirugía demostró que se trataba de un “twist tie” de 4 cm que perforaba esas estructuras. En la descripción del caso se plantean los diagnósticos diferenciales basados en revisión de la literatura. Se presenta este caso por ser muy infrecuente, correspondiendo a la tercera publicación de un cuerpo extraño intra-abdominal por twist tie, de acuerdo con la revisión de las publicaciones médicas.
