ABSTRACT

Desde el siglo XIX se conocen los efectos negativos del aumento de la presión intraabdominal, pero no se le prestó la debida atención a este trastorno hasta la última década del pasado siglo y la primera del actual. En este artículo exponemos las definiciones de los términos presión intrabdominal, hipertensión intrabdominal y síndrome compartimental abdominal, que fueron tomadas por consenso y aprobadas por la World Society of the Abdominal Compartment Syndrome. En nuestro medio, para el diagnóstico de la hipertensión intrabdominal y del síndrome compartimental abdominal se requiere medir la presión intrabdominal, secundariamente la presión de perfusión abdominal y se deben correlacionar estos datos con signos de deterioro clínico en el paciente. Las medidas terapéuticas médicas en relación con el síndrome compartimental abdominal son limitadas; cuando este es sintomático la descompresión abdominal es el tratamiento ya establecido. Enfatizamos en que el diagnóstico temprano de la hipertensión intrabdominal y del síndrome compartimental abdominal contribuyen a disminuir el desarrollo de un síndrome de disfunción múltiple de órganos y por tanto a reducir la mortalidad en estos pacientes. Con el objetivo de actualizar los conocimientos sobre hipertensión intrabdominal y síndrome compartimental abdominal, su diagnóstico y tratamiento, realizamos una minuciosa revisión actualizada de diversos artículos referentes al síndrome compartimental abdominal, tanto en el ámbito nacional como internacional(AU)


The negative effects of increased intra-abdominal pressure are known since the XIX Century, but attention was not paid to this disorder until the last decade of the last century and the first decade of the present one. In this article, we state the definitions of the terms intra-abdominal pressure, intra-abdominal hypertension, and abdominal compartment syndrome which were taken with consent and approved by the World Society of the Abdominal Compartment Syndrome. In our field, to get to a diagnosis of intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome, it is required to measure the intra-abdominal pressure and secondarily, the abdominal perfusion pressure; then, these data should be correlated with the signs of clinical deterioration of the patient. The medical therapeutic measures related to the abdominal compartment syndrome are limited, and when it is symptomatic, abdominal decompression is the established treatment. We want to make emphasis on the fact that the early diagnosis of intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome contribute to diminish the development of a multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, hence reducing mortality in these patients. With the aim of updating knowledge about intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome as well as their diagnosis and treatment, we carried out a detailed updated review of different articles regarding the abdominal compartment syndrome from both national and international scopes(AU)

ABSTRACT

El trauma múltiple nos ofrece la oportunidad única de observar la importancia de relacionar la fisiología de los múltiples sistemas del cuerpo humano. La presión intrabdominal y sus expresiones patológicas son temas de gran controversia e interés actual. La discusión y el manejo de dicho tema son fundamentales en la práctica médica actual. Se describe brevemente la fisiología de la presión intrabdominal y sus relaciones con múltiples sistemas. Además, se discuten sus manifestaciones patológicas, como la hipertensión abdominal y el síndrome de compartimiento abdominal, y sus principales causas.


Simple and tremendously important physiological concepts such as intraabdominal pressure are commonly relegated in the actual medical education. This review focuses on the physiological and pathological aspects of intraabdominal pressure and its relationship with the renal, cardiovascular, pulmonary, portosystemic visceral and central nervous systems. Methods of measurement and actual definitions of its pathologic expression (intraabdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome) are also reviewed. The deadly trauma triad and damage control surgery are concepts intimately related with the abdominal compartment syndrome, its physiology and treatment are described briefly. The review also explores the relationship between intra abdominal pressure and intra cranial pressure, and describes a new treatment strategy for intractable intracranial hypertension after traumatic brain injury based on this relationship.The complexity of polytraumatized patients forces us to study from a universal point of view the physiologic phenomena involved, and to identify and treat the repercussions that these may have in the rest of the body. Trauma sets the perfect stage for a better understanding of the body’s physiology and reminds us of the great complexity that is the human body machinery.

ABSTRACT

El adenocarcinoma fetal bien diferenciado de pulmón es un tumor raro compuesto por glándulas neoplásicas ricas en glucógeno y túbulos que se parecen al pulmón fetal entre la semana 10 y 16 de gestación[1]. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 26 años, con antecedentes de bronquitis aguda y tabaquismo, cuyos hallazgos clínicos, imaginológicos, macroscópicos y microscópicos fueron indicativos de esta neoplasia. Se le practicó lobectomía inferior izquierda.


Well differentiated fetal adenocarcinoma is a rare lung tumour that is composed of glycogenrich neoplasic glands and tubules that resemble fetal lung at 10 to 16 weeks of gestation. In this report, we present a case of a 26 year old woman with a history of acute bronchitis and smoking, on which the clinical, imaging, macroscopic and microscopic features were compatible with this neoplasm. Lobectomy was performed of the left lower lobe.
