ABSTRACT

Introducción: La malformación aneurismática en la vena de Galeno es infrecuente, pero tiene alta mortalidad en neonatos. Objetivo: Examinar la relevancia clínica del diagnóstico ecográfico de la malformación aneurismática en la vena de Galeno Métodos: Investigación observacional, prospectiva y transversal realizado en el Cardiocentro William Soler. (noviembre 1999-diciembre 2016) La muestra la conformaron 18 neonatos con diagnóstico de malformación aneurismática en la vena de Galeno variedad coroidea mediante ecografía doppler. Se configuraron dos grupos de referencia: 1) 70 niños supuestamente sanos. 2) 73 niños con malformación de la vena Galeno de diferente naturaleza que la variante coroidea estudiada. El procesamiento de la información incluyó elementos de estadística inferencial y herramientas de la medicina basada en la evidencia. Resultados: La presencia de fallo cardíaco neonatal, signos electrocardiográficos de isquemia miocárdica y detección de soplo continuo transcraneal, fueron significativamente diferentes en el grupo de estudio en relación con el grupo de referencia (p= 0,000001), con predominio en el número de pacientes del grupo estudio en todas las variables. Los resultados anteriores conjugados con diversos hallazgos ecográficos: la dilatación anómala de la vena, exceso de vasculatura aferente, reducción de los índices circulatorios encefálicos e incremento en los diámetros vasculares supraaórticos, identificaron de forma precisa la malformación aneurismática en la vena de Galeno. La evaluación del riesgo relativo reafirmó la documentación de los hallazgos expuestos. Conclusiones: La ecografía doppler, por su relevancia clínica y vínculo con otros elementos diagnósticos, es mandatoria en la detección de la malformación aneurismática en la vena de Galeno(AU)


Introduction: Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation is not frequent but it has high mortality rates in newborns. Objective: To assess the clinical relevance of ultrasound diagnosis of Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation. Methods: Observational, prospective and cross-sectional research conducted in William Soler Cardiocentro (November 1999- December 2016). The sample was formed by 18 newborns with diagnosis of Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (choroidal variety) through doppler echocardiography. Two reference groups were formed: 1) 70 supposedly healthy children; 2) 73 children with Vein of Galen malformation with a nature different to the studied choroidal variety. Processing of the information included elements of inferential statistics and tools from medicine based in evidences. Results: The presence of neonatal heart failure, electrocardiographic signs of myocardial ischemia and detection of transcranial continuous murmur were significantly different in the study group in relation with the reference group (p= 0,000001), with predominance in the number of patients of the study group in all the variables. The previous results combined with different ultrasound findings as the anomalous dilation of the vein, the excess of afferent vasculature, the reduction of encephalic circulation indexes and the increase of the supraaortic vascular diameters identified in a precise way the vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation. The assessment of the relative risk reaffirmed the information on the exposed findings. Conclusions: Doppler echography, due to its clinical importance and its links with other diagnostic elements, is mandatory in the detection of the vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation(AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La malformación aneurismática de la vena de Galeno es una infrecuente variedad de fístula arteriovenosa cerebral de origen embriológico. Se localiza en la línea media de la fisura coroidal y tiene morfología de amplio espectro. Objetivo: Exponer información actualizada acerca del tema. Método: La información se obtuvo de la búsqueda automatizada realizada fundamentalmente en bases de datos MEDLINE, Current Contents y Scielo. Resultados: La malformación aneurismática de la vena Galeno se manifiesta con síntomas y signos derivados de la insuficiencia cardiaca severa refractaria al tratamiento médico y del daño neurológico que provoca. La entidad implica morbilidad grave y mortalidad en el periodo neonatal. La angiorresonancia es la técnica de referencia, pero la ecografía doppler es buen método de valoración. El tratamiento de elección es la embolización endovascular. Consideraciones finales: Debe existir índice elevado de sospecha para no fracasar en el diagnóstico precoz de la enfermedad. Es importante definir la anatomía de la lesión, por las implicaciones clínicas, terapéuticas y pronósticas que ello acarrea. El tratamiento exitoso sigue siendo un reto terapéutico complejo(AU)


Introduction: Vein of Galen aneurysm is a rare and congenital cerebral arteriovenous abnormality with reported incidence of 1:25 000 live births. It represents the 30 percent of the vascular congenital cerebral malformations that harm the pediatric population. Objective: To show updated information about the topic. Method: The information was obtained from the automated search mostly done in MEDLINE, CurrentContents and Scielo databases. Development: Vein of Galen malformation presents with symptoms and signs derived from the severe refractary heart failure to medical treatment and the neurologic damage it causes. That entity implies severe morbidity and mortality on the neonatal period. Angioresonance is the reference technique, but the Doppler ecography is a good valuation method. The election treatment is the endovascular embolization. Final considerations: There must be an elevated rate of suspect to do not fail on the early diagnostic of the disease. It is important to define the lesion's anatomy, because of the clinic, therapeutic and prognostic implications this represent. The successful treatment is still a complex therapeutic challenge(AU)

ABSTRACT

Vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation (VGAM) is the result of the direct communication between the arterial network and the median prosencephalic vein. It is a rare vascular congenital malformation representing less than 1% of intracranial abnormalities. This finding is very rare in adults, and it may or may not present symptoms during childhood. Most cases of VGAM can be detected in the fetus by ultrasonography. The referral of pregnant women with fetuses with this condition to centers where better facilities and resources for childbirth and immediate postpartum care are available has resulted in considerable improvement in the prognosis of newborns. Regarding treatment, the endovascular approach to VGAM includes arterial embolization and percutaneous transvenous techniques. The transvenous endovascular treatment was chosen in the case presented in this article.


A malformação aneurismática da veia de Galeno (MAVG) é resultado da comunicação direta entre a rede arterial e a veia prosencefálica mediana. Trata-se de uma malformação vascular congênita rara, que representa menos de 1% das anormalidades intracranianas. Sua ocorrência é muito rara em adultos, e a malformação pode ou não apresentar sintomas durante a infância. A maioria dos casos pode ser detectada em fetos por ultrassonografia. O encaminhamento de grávidas com fetos com esta malformação para centros mais bem estruturados, com recursos para cuidados no parto e pós-parto, tem resultado em considerável melhora do prognóstico de recémnascidos. Quanto ao tratamento, o acesso endovascular à MAVG inclui a técnica de embolização arterial e o tratamento transvenoso percutâneo. O tratamento transvenoso endovascular foi escolhido no caso apresentado neste artigo.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. El vasoespasmo cerebral como complicación de la Hemorragia subaracnoidea aneurismática, es considerado como una vasoconstricción patológica de las arterias principales de la base del encéfalo; es una condición reversible, que se caracteriza con la reducción del calibre de la luz de las arterias y por lo consiguiente una disminución del flujo sanguíneo al área perfundida por el vaso comprometido. Objetivo. Desarrollar un proceso enfermero basado en la taxonomía Nanda, Noc, Nic a una persona con vasoespasmo cerebral. Metodología. Se realizó la elección de un caso clínico, con la metodología del proceso de atención de enfermería estableciendo un plan de cuidados en el área de recuperación y terapia intermedia del Instituto Nacional de Neurología y Neurocirugía Manuel Velasco Suárez durante el periodo postquirúrgico inmediato. Se detectaron las necesidades básicas alteradas al realizar la valoración neurológica de enfermería. Se procedió a formular los diagnósticos de enfermería reales y de riesgo y con base en estos se planearon las intervenciones de enfermería. Conclusión. El realizar las intervenciones de enfermería de forma sistematizada a partir del proceso enfermero, se establece un método científico, en donde cada intervención se fundamenta y da pauta a la aplicación de un cuidado especializado, dirigido hacia la mejora de la persona desde el punto de vista individual y con ello detectar oportunamente signos y síntomas de alarma así como posibles complicaciones.


Introduction. The cerebral vasospasm as complication of the Haemorrhage subarachnoid aneurismática, is considered to be a pathological vasoconstriction of the main arteries of the base of the brain; it is a reversible condition, which is characterized by the reduction of the caliber of the light of the arteries and for consequent a decrease of the blood flow to the area perfundida for the awkward glass. Target. To develop a process nurse based on the taxonomy Nanda, NOC, NIC to a person with vasospasm cerebral. Methodology. There was realized the election of a clinical case, with the methodology of the process of attention of infirmary establishing a care plan in the field of recovery and intermediate therapy of the National Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery Manuel Velasco Suárez during the immediate postsurgical period.

ABSTRACT

Aneurismas cerebrales son una enfermedad grave, a pesar del alto grado de conocimiento respecto su fisiopatología y patogenia. La letalidad de ruptura de un aneurisma cerebral es todavía alrededor de 50%, allá de altas tasas de morbilidad. El tratamiento endovascular ha evolucionado en las últimas décadas para mejorar los resultados. Se presenta el caso de un paciente con síntomas neurológicos graves secundarios a la hemorragia subaracnoidea, cuya investigación mostró múltiples aneurismas. Varios dispositivos fueron utilizados en modalidades terapéuticas endovasculares consecutivas, incluyendo la embolización con remodelación, colocación de stents y desviador de flujo, con buen resultado clínico y angiográfico.


Cerebral aneurysms are a serious illness, despite the high degree of knowledge about its pathophysiology and pathogenesis. The lethality of cerebral aneurysm´s rupture is still about 50% beyond high morbidity. Endovascular treatment has evolved in recent decades to improve outcomes. It is reported the case of a patient with severe neurological symptoms secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage, whose examination showed multiple aneurysms. Several devices were used on consecutive endovascular therapeutic modalities, including remodeling embolization, stenting and flow diverter, with good clinical and angiographic outcome.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. Las malformaciones aneurismáticas del polígono de Willis comprenden un raro grupo de anomalías congénitas que se presentan en edades pediátricas. Son causa importante de morbimortalidad en este grupo de edad; en consecuencia, el manejo de estas lesiones es complejo y potencialmente letal, y puede plantear problemas para el paciente y su tratamiento. Caso clínico. Presentamos el caso de una niña de 10 años que inició de manera súbita con síncope neurogénico y crisis convulsivas tónico-clónicas generalizadas. Al llegar a urgencias, se le realizó una tomografía donde se identificó hemorragia subaracnoidea Fisher II. En la angiografía cerebral de 4 vasos se observó una lesión sacular del ápex carotideo, de aproximadamente 5.1 x 7.2 mm, con cuello visible y domo dirigido hacia la parte cefálica y hacia la parte frontal. Se le realizó craneotomía fronto-pterional derecha. Durante el transquirúrgico, se llevaron a cabo un ultrasonido pre-clipaje, que identificó la lesión aneurismática, y uno post-clipaje, para verificar la permeabilidad de las ramas distales al clipaje. Conclusiones. Las malformaciones aneurismáticas en la edad pediátrica son extremadamente raras. Por ello, métodos como la endoscopia y la sonografía transoperatoria y postoperatoria son de gran utilidad, ya que evidencian detalles que en ocasiones los estudios de imagen convencionales no revelan. Todo esto condiciona un procedimiento con menor riesgo de morbimortalidad para este tipo de pacientes.


Background. Aneurysm malformations of the circle of Willis comprise a rare group of congenital anomalies that occur during the pediatric age and are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in this age group. Consequently, management of these lesions is complex and potentially lethal and may pose problems for the patient and affect their treatment. Case report. We report the case of a 10-year-old girl who had a sudden onset of neurogenic syncope and tonic-clonic seizures. After arriving at the emergency room, she underwent a CT scan, identifying a Fisher II subarachnoid hemorrhage. Four-vessel cerebral angiography identified apex saccular carotid injury ~5.1 x 7.2 mm with visible neck and dome partially cephalic and partially frontal. Right frontopterional craniotomy was performed and preclipping during trans-surgical ultrasound was performed, identifying the aneurysmal lesion and post-clipping to verify patency of the distal branches to clipping. Conclusions. Aneurysmal malformations in children are extremely rare. For this reason, methods such as endoscopy, trans- and postoperative ultrasound are very useful. These procedures sometimes reveal details that conventional imaging studies do not, determining use of a procedure with less risk of morbidity and mortality for these patients.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: a hemorragia subaracnóidea (HSA) aneurismática é um evento clínico grave, que apresenta altas taxas de morbimortalidade. Dos indivíduos acometidos por HSA, apenas um terço voltam à vida normal, na grande maioria das vezes desenvolvem sequelas neurológicas significativas. Objetivo: conhecer os tipos de sequelas e prevalência em pacientes com hemorragia subaracnóidea por ruptura de aneurisma intracraniano no Hospital Nossa Senhora da Conceição ? HNSC, Tubarão ? SC. Métodos: pesquisa transversal, constituída por prontuários médicos de pacientes pós-cirúrgicos de HSA por ruptura de aneurisma intracraniano, com idade superior a 18 anos. Resultados: foram analisados 7 prontuários. Houve predominância do sexo feminino (67,6%). A média de idade dos pacientes foi de 52,1 anos. O tempo de internação teve uma média de 36,7 dias. Dentre as complicações pesquisadas o vasoespasmo apresentou-se de forma mais frequente (20,3%), seguido de convulsões (17,6%), ressangramento (10,8%), hidrocefalia (9,5%), hematoma cerebral (4,1%), PIC elevada (1,4%) e outras complicações (4,2%). As sequelas neurológicas mais encontradas entre os indivíduos pesquisados foram: a alteração cognitiva (45,9%) e o déficit motor (31,1%), o déficit comportamental (2,7%) e outras sequelas (4,1%). Conclusão: no HNSC houve uma prevalência significativa de pacientes pós-cirúrgicos com sequelas neurológicas devido a HSA aneurismática. O vasoespasmo esteve associado às principais sequelas; e a taxa de mortalidade mostrou--se baixa em relação à literatura utilizada.


Background: subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by ruptured aneurysms is a severe clinical event that presents high morbimortality rates. Just a third part of patients have a normal life after a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Usually the major part of patients will develop significant neurological sequelae. Objective: to know the prevalence and every kind of sequelae that occurs in patients after subarachnoid hemorrhage event caused by a ruptured aneurysms in Nossa Senhora da Conceição Hospital, Tubarão ? SC. Methods: transversal study constituted by medicals handbooks of patients older than 18 years old after aneurysm intracranial surgery from January of 2000 to May of 2008. Results: 74 medicals handbooks were analyzed. There was a female predominance (67,6%). The age average was 52,1 years old. The time average spent into the hospital for each was 36,7 days. About surgery complications, vasospasm was more common (20,3%), convulsions (17,6%), rebleeding (10,8%), hidrocephalia (9,5%), cerebral hematoma (4,1%), high intracranial pressure (1,4%) and others complications (4,1%). About neurological sequelaes were found: cognitive alteration (45,9%), motor deficits (31,1%), behavior deficits (2,7%) and others sequelaes (4,1%). Conclusion: we verify that had a significant prevalence of patients with neurological sequelae consequently subaracnoid hemorrhage aneurismal in Nossa Senhora da Conceição Hospital. The main sequelaes and vasospasm usually were associated. Comparing with literature, mortality rates were lower.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Los aneurismas intracraneales gigantes, son lesiones con características muy particulares, que implican la utilización de métodos quirúrgicos específicos para su exclusión de la circulación, dependientes de su tamaño, localización, morfología, relaciones con otras estructuras neurales y vasculares, así como características propias del saco. Método: Se realiza un estudio descriptivo, de todos los pacientes portadores de aneurismas intracraneales gigantes, que fueron intervenidos quirúrgicamente en el servicio de neurocirugía del Hospital “Roberto Rodriguez”, de la ciudad de Morón, en la provincia de Ciego de Ávila, Cuba, en el período comprendido entre enero de 1996 y diciembre del 2008. La evaluación al ingreso fue con la escala de Hunt y Hess, el diagnóstico se obtuvo con imágenes de angiotomografía computarizada multicortes, angioresonancia magnética nuclear o angiografía cerebral. El corredor quirúrgico fue el frontopterional de Yasargil y se emplearon medidas adyuvantes para lograr el presillamiento. Resultados: La muestra estuvo representada por 13 pacientes. Predominaron los aneurismas de la comunicante posterior (61,53 por ciento), ocho (61,54 por ciento), debutaron con una hemorragia subaracnoidea y cinco (38,46 por ciento), con compresión de estructuras adyacentes. De los tres operados en fase aguda, dos fallecieron (ERG I) (66,67 por ciento) y uno (33,33 por ciento) quedó con secuelas severas (ERG III). Los operados en fase tardía, dos (20 por ciento) quedaron con secuelas severas (ERG III), tres (30 por ciento) mostraron secuelas moderadas (ERG IV) y cinco (50 por ciento) quedaron con secuelas ligeras o sin ellas (ERG V). La mortalidad global fue de 15,38 por ciento. Conclusiones: La microcirugía constituye un método eficaz en centros que no cuentan con tratamiento endovascular.


Introduction: The surgical treatment of giant intracraneal aneurysms aims to exclude them from the circulation and to reduce its mass effect while preserving normal vasculature. Method: We have carried out a descriptive study in thirteen patients with a giant aneurysm located in the anterior circulation of Willis circle operated on in neurological surgery department of Moron General Hospital, Ciego de Avila, Cuba between January of 1996 to December of 2008. The neurological status in emergency department was evaluated by Hunt and Hess scale, the results were evaluated by Glasgow outcome scale. The diagnosis was obtained by CT scan, MRI and conventional angiography. Results: From thirteen aneurysms, 9 were excluded of circulation (69,23 percent), 7 were clipped, 2 were trapped and 4 reinforced. Three patients were operated on in acute phase with poor grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, two of them died (66,67 percent) (GOS I), and one (33,33 percent) had a severe disability (GOS III). Delayed surgery was carried out in 10 patients, two of them (20 percent) showed severe disability (GOS III), 3 (30 percent) had moderate disability and 5 (50 percent) had favorable outcome (GOS 5). The global mortality in the group was 15,38 percent. Conclusion: Microsurgery is the more important treatment in countries without possibilities of endovascular treatment for giant intracranial aneurysms.
