ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Fundamento: el melanoma maligno es un tumor con una gran capacidad de invasión y de difícil tratamiento por su elevada agresividad y mortalidad, en este, los estudios morfométricos se hacen necesarios por el valor que aportan en el diagnóstico histológico para mejorar el pronóstico de la enfermedad. Objetivo: describir el comportamiento de indicadores morfométricos como el área nuclear, volumen nuclear y factor de forma nuclear. Métodos: se realizó un estudio de serie de casos de 12 pacientes con el diagnóstico de melanoma maligno de piel en el período septiembre 2015 a septiembre 2017 en la provincia Holguín. Se emplearon métodos teóricos y empíricos, estos últimos basados en técnicas morfométricas, luego se realizó análisis estadístico de los datos obtenidos y se reflejaron en tablas. Resultados: el área y el volumen nuclear muestran valores pequeños. El factor de forma como indicador de pleomorfismo nuclear presentó valores superiores en los casos del estudio que en los descritos en la literatura. Conclusiones: el volumen nuclear muestra valores pequeños, lo que habla a favor de un comportamiento característico de tejido hiperplásico, al igual que el comportamiento del área nuclear, los valores del factor de forma nuclear indican menor pleomorfismo que el descrito en la literatura.


ABSTRACT Background: malignant melanoma is an invasive tumour and difficult to treat due to its high level of mortality and aggressiveness, a morphometry study was required to provide a proper diagnosis of the disease. Objective: to describe the behavior of morphometric indicators as nuclear area, nuclear volume and nuclear shape factor. Methods: a case series study in 12 patients having malignant skin melanoma was carried out, in the period from September 2015 to September 2017 in Holguin Province. Theoretical and empirical methods were used; these last two methods were based on Morphometric techniques. Then a statistical analysis of the information obtained was performed and they were added on a chart. Results: the area and nuclear volume showed low rate. The shape factor showed less levels of pleomorfism than the ones described in specialized literature. Conclusions: when low values of nuclear volume and nuclear area in malignant melanoma are found we are dealing with hyperplastic tissue. The same happens with the incidence of the nuclear area; the values of the nuclear shape factor evidenced less pleomorfi levels than the ones described in specialized literature.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O lentigo maligno é um melanoma in situ, de crescimento radial e lento, que acomete áreas fotoexpostas principalmente em idosos. Quando acomete a pálpebra, devido à proximidade a um órgão nobre, a conduta é controversa, porém a cirurgia é o método mais usado, com margens que variam de acordo com a referência utilizada. Terapias conservadoras são descritas, como o imiquimode 5% e a radioterapia. O presente relato tem como objetivo demonstrar a escassez de estudos sobre a margem cirúrgica e citar opções de tratamentos não cirúrgicos para o lentigo maligno da face.


Abstract Lentigo maligna is a melanoma in situ, of slow radial growth, which affects sun-exposed areas, especially in the elderly. When it affects the eyelid, due to the proximity to a noble organ, the conduct is controversial, but surgery is the method most commonly used, with with margins varying according to the reference used. Conservative treatments are described, such as imiquimod 5% and radiotherapy. This report aims to demonstrate the lack of studies on the surgical margin, and to name nonsurgical treatment options for lentigo maligna of the face.
