ABSTRACT

Se presenta el caso clínico de una lactante de 17 meses, remitida al Hospital Infantil Sur de Santiago de Cuba, en fase terminal, desde el Hospital Pediátrico de Palma Soriano, donde había permanecido ingresada durante 14 días por neumonía grave. Inicialmente se planteó la posibilidad de un proceso séptico de origen tuberculoso o tumoral. En todo momento, la niña evolucionó desfavorablemente hasta fallecer. Los hallazgos anatomopatológicos confirmaron la presencia de un linfoma linfoblástico agudo del mediastino, con infiltración linfomatosa del saco pericardio, ambas pleuras, parénquima pulmonar, ganglios aorticoabdominales y ambos riñones.

ABSTRACT

Se modificó la técnica de Perls para disponer de un medio que pudiera revelar la presencia del pigmento férrico y poder utilizarlo en el diagnóstico histopatológico; para ello se elevó a 58 grados centígrados la temperatura en los reactivos, lo cual no se hace en el procedimiento habitual, y el citado pigmento se tiñó de verde o azul, de manera que fue posible identificarlo en los núcleos grises de la base en un paciente con síndrome de Hallervordem - Spatz, que falleció en esta institución.


The technique of Perls was modified to have a mean that could reveal the presence of the ferric pigment and to be able to use it in the histopathological diagnosis; for this purpose the temperature was rised to 58º centigrades in the reagents, which is not done in the habitual procedure, and the mentioned pigment was stained of green or blue, so that it was possible to identify it in the gray nuclei of the base in a patient with syndrome of Hallervordem - Spatz, who died in this institution.
