ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las úlceras de Marjolin son neoplasias cutáneas que asientan sobre pieles afectadas por úlceras crónicas, quemaduras, cicatrices, estasis venosa o heridas cutáneas. Generalmente se diagnostica por medio de biopsias, siendo los carcinomas escamosos la variedad más frecuente. Existe escasa información sobre su desarrollo en heridas quirúrgicas abdominales previas, y aún menos casos reportados de su aparición sobre un defecto de la pared abdominal. Objetivo: Reporte de un caso de un paciente con antecedente de múltiples cirugías abdominales que desarrolló un carcinoma escamoso sobre cicatriz de laparotomía previa. Pacientes y Métodos: Presentación de un de un paciente masculino de 61 años, con antecedente de laparotomía exploradora, que consultó por una tumoración, de 6 meses de evolución, vegetante sobre eventración de mediana suprainfraumbilical. Se realiza exéresis de lesión en bloque de pared con enterectomia, anastomosis primaria y eventroplastia con malla de reemplazo. Cursa internación prolongada y con mala evolución, falleciendo al 77 día postoperatorio. Conclusión: Los carcinomas de células escamosas que se desarrollan sobre lesiones cutáneas previas presentan una agresividad mayor a aquellos desarrollados espontáneamente, tienen alto porcentaje de recidiva y metástasis asociadas. Se propone abordajes quirúrgicos radicales para su tratamiento, aun asi presentando una morbimortalidad elevada


Background: Marjolin ulcers are skin malignancies that appear on skin affected by chronic ulcers, burns, scars, venous stasis or skin wounds. They are generally diagnosed through a biopsy and the most frequent type is the squamous cell carcinoma. There is little information on its development in existing abdominal surgical wounds, and there are even fewer cases reported in relation to its appearance upon an abdominal wall defect. Objective: To report a case of a patient with a history of multiple abdominal surgeries who developed a squamous cell carcinoma in an existing laparotomy scar in association with an incisional hernia. Patient and Methods: A 61-year-old male patient, with history of an exploratory laparotomy in 1986, presents with a 6-month-old vegetating tumor upon a supra-infraumbilical median eventration. An excision of the lesion that included the abdominal wall and an associated enterectomy, primary anastomosis, and eventroplasty with replacement mesh was performed. During his prolonged hospital stay, he underwent with many medical intercurrences and even an additional surgery was needed. Eventually, the patient dies 77 days after the surgery. Conclusion: Squamous cell carcinomas that develop in existing skin lesions tend to be more aggressive than those that develop spontaneously. They have a high percentage of recurrence and associated metastases. Radical surgical approaches are suggested for its treatment, although it has a high morbidity and mortality rate.

ABSTRACT

Se describe una nueva patología nostra-de nosotros los médicos-un nuevo síndrome que afecta al médico moderno en su relación con sus pacientes y enfermedades. Se postula que el ente mórbido toma su origen en la servil sumisión del facultativo ante la ¨Deidad Máquina¨ a quien concede, entre otros atributos, omnisciencia y omnipotencia. Como resultado de su fantasía, con mucha frecuencia ¨descalifica su cerebro¨ y abdica su juicio clínico a favor de los dictados erróneos de aquella, con el consiguiente perjuicio para el paciente. Como ilustración de la condición se narran las vicisitudes de algunos enfermos y el tortuoso camino del diagnóstico de sus condiciones patológicas


The ¨dysqualified¨ brain syndrome. The author describes a hitherto undescribed syndrome which affects the modern physician and his/her relationship with patients and their diseases. He postulates that the morbid entity takes its origin from the doctor’s submission to the ¨Machine Deity¨ to whom he concedes, among other attributes, those of omnipotence and omniscience. As a result of this fantasy, physicians frequently ¨disqualify¨ his/her brain,and abdicate their clinical judgment in its favor with the ensuing disservice to their patients. As an illustration of such condition, the difficulties of several patients are presented, whose diagnostics were abusive, erroneous or delayed due to deficient clinical histories
