ABSTRACT

Los Teratomas Quísticos son tumores de origen embrionario que están compuestos por células germinales pluripotenciales. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 57 años, que ingresa al servicio de emergencia por presentar como molestia principal una tumoración abdominal dolorosa a predominio de región mesogástrica. En los estudios realizados, se determinó por imagen una masa anexial derecha asociada a valores elevados del marcador tumoral Antígeno Carcinogénico 125 (CA-125). Bajo la sospecha clínica de la presencia de una neoplasia maligna de ovario, sumado a los hallazgos clínicos e imagenológicos se optó por una conducta quirúrgica. Se llevó a cabo una cirugía radical (Cistectomía, histerectomía radical ampliada, apendicectomía, omentectomía, disección ganglionar y lavado peritoneal). Los estudios anatomopatológicos postoperatorios concluyeron con el diagnóstico de un Teratoma Quístico Benigno de Ovario. Se ha demostrado que esta patología representa un cuadro clínico de comportamiento benigno, pero ante la existencia de pequeños porcentajes que podrían tener un curso maligno, se recomienda el principio de la detección y manejo temprano con la finalidad de reducir cualquier posibilidad de malignidad mediante una intervención médica oportuna.


Cystic Teratomas are tumors of embryonic origin that are composed of pluripotent germ cells. It was presented the case of a 57-year-old woman admitted to the emergency department for presenting as a major annoyance due to a painful abdominal mass to a predominance of the mesogastric region. In the studies performed, a right adnexal mass associated with high values of the tumor marker 125 Carcinogenic Antigen (CA-125) is determined. Under the suspicion of a malignant ovarian neoplasm, added to the clinical and imaging findings, a surgical approach was chosen. Radical surgery was performed (cystectomy, extended radical hysterectomy, appendectomy, omentectomy, lymph node dissection and peritoneal lavage). The postoperative anatomopathological studies concluded with the diagnosis of a Benign Ovarian Cystic Teratoma. It has been demonstrated that this pathology represents a clinical picture of benign behavior, but in the presence of small percentages that may have a malignant course. Therefore, the principle of detection and early management for unidentified purposes of a timely medical entity is recommended.

ABSTRACT

The dermatological manifestations of disseminated histoplasmosis present in about 17% of the cases, is a challenge for its diagnosis. We report the case of a patient from the northern coast of Peru, who presented diffuse dermal lesions, erythema-violaceous nodules, and ulcers histopathologically compatible with the infection of the genus Histoplasma var. capsulatum
