ABSTRACT

RESUMO Osteofitose cervical anterior é uma condição não inflamatória caracterizada por calcificação ou ossificação dos ligamentos paravertebrais anterolaterais da coluna cervical. Acomete 20 a 30% dos idosos, sendo responsável por 1,6% das etiologias identificáveis da disfagia na população senil. Em estados avançados, a disfagia por osteofitose cervical pode levar a complicações como desnutrição, perda de peso e pneumonia aspirativa. Este estudo visa alertar para a suspeição desse diagnóstico à equipe multidisciplinar que cuida do idoso disfágico, possibilitando tratamento oportuno e precoce da condição. É relatado o caso de um paciente masculino de 66 anos com disfagia tipo engasgo para sólidos e refluxo nasal de alimentos há 1 ano. Videoendoscopia da deglutição evidenciou abaulamento da parede posterior da faringe e, à oferta de alimento sólido, restrição à retroflexão da epiglote, refluxo nasal do alimento e grande quantidade de resíduo alimentar sobre a lesão. Tomografia computadorizada de coluna cervical identificou a presença de osteófitos cervicais anteriores entre as vértebras C3 e C6, o maior com comprimento anteroposterior de 12 milímetros, estreitando a coluna aérea ao nível da oro- e hipofaringe. O paciente foi adequadamente tratado com fonoterapia da deglutição. A estratégia inicial de tratamento para a osteofitose sintomática deve ser conservadora, geralmente com boa resposta à fonoterapia da deglutição. Apesar de raramente estarem implicados na etiologia da disfagia, considerando sua alta prevalência, é importante que otorrinolaringologistas e fonoaudiólogos estejam atentos a esse diagnóstico, permitindo tratamento precoce e efetivo para o paciente assistido, melhor prognóstico e menos complicações da disfagia orofaríngea no idoso.


ABSTRACT Anterior cervical osteophytosis is a noninflammatory condition characterized by calcification or ossification of the anterolateral paravertebral ligaments of the cervical spine. It affects 20 to 30% of the elderly, being responsible for 1.6% of the identifiable etiologies of dysphagia in the senile population. In advanced states, dysphagia due to cervical osteophytosis can lead to complications such as malnutrition, weight loss and aspiration pneumonia. This study aims to alert to this diagnosis, enabling early treatment of the condition. The case of a 66-year-old male patient with choking dysphagia for solids and nasal food reflux for 1 year is reported. Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing showed bulging of the posterior pharyngeal wall and, with solid food supply, restriction to the retroflexion of the epiglottis, nasal reflux of the food and a large amount of food residue on the lesion. Cervical spine Computed Tomography identified the presence of anterior cervical osteophytes between the C3 and C6 vertebrae, the largest with anteroposterior length of 12 millimeters, narrowing the air column at the level of the oro- and hypopharynx. The patient was adequately treated with swallowing therapy by speech-language pathologist. The initial treatment strategy for symptomatic osteophytosis should be conservative, usually with a good response to swallowing therapy. Although they are rarely implicated in the etiology of dysphagia, considering its high prevalence, it is important that otolaryngologists and speech-language pathologists are attentive to this diagnosis, allowing early and effective treatment for the assisted patient, better prognosis and fewer complications of oropharyngeal dysphagia in the elderly.

El dolor en etapa prequirúrgica fue de moderado a severo en un 77,2 %, y nulo o leve después de la operación. La función en etapa prequirúrgica estuvo afectada de moderada a severa en un 68,1 %, y nula o leve después del tratamiento quirúrgico. La flexión anterior activa estuvo por debajo de 90º en un 83,1 % antes de ser operados, y por encima de 90º en un 80,3 % en el posquirúrgico. La fuerza muscular era mala o regular en etapa prequirúrgica en un 77,2 %, resultando ser excelente o buena después de la operación. Conclusiones: una vez aplicada la técnica de Neer, el dolor fue leve o nulo en la mayoría del universo, la función del hombro fue buena, la flexión anterior adecuada, y buena la fuerza muscular. Se recomienda emplear esta técnica quirúrgica en esta afección (AU).


ABSTRACT Introduction: subacromial syndrome is a condition characterized by intra-articular tendinous impingement by osteophytes or narrowing of space. Objective: to evaluate Neer's technique in the treatment of patients with subacromial syndrome and the factors and activities favoring this condition. Materials end methods: an observational, descriptive, prospective study was performed in patients with subacromial syndrome treated with acromioplasty using Neer's technique. The universe was formed by 66 patients aged over 20 years, who presented subacromial syndrome with symptoms for more than 6 months, and were treated with Neer's technique. Results: the most affected sex was the female one, with 65.2 %. The age group aged 41 to 50 years predominated. In pre-surgical stage, pain ranged from moderate to severe in 77.2 %, and from null to mild after surgery. Preoperative function was moderate to severe in 68.1 % and null or mild after surgical treatment. The previous active flexion was below 90° in 83.1 % before being operated, and above 90° in 80.3 % after surgery. Muscle strength was poor or regular in pre-surgical stage in 77.2 %, being excellent or good after surgery. Conclusions: once Neer's technique was applied, the pain was mild or null in most of the universe, the shoulder function was good, the anterior flexion adequate, and the muscle strength good (AU).

ABSTRACT

Resumen La hiperostosis esquelética difusa idiopática (DISH) es una enfermedad sistémica caracterizada por la osificación del ligamento longitudinal anterior de la columna. Los pacientes suelen ser asintomáticos o presentar dolor leve o rigidez, sin embargo, cuando afecta la región cervical puede ocasionar disfagia, disfonía o disnea. Presentamos el caso de un paciente de 63 años con disfonía y disfagia en quien los estudios demostraron desplazamiento del aritenoides y colapso del seno piriforme debido a un osteofito a nivel de C4. El paciente presentó mejoría con tratamiento conservador. Realizamos una discusión del caso y una revisión de la literatura sobre diagnóstico y tratamiento de esta patología.


Abstract Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a systemic disease characterized by ossi- fication of the anterior longitudinal ligament of the spine. Patients are usually asympto- matic, or present mild pain or stiffness, however cervical compromise can cause dysphagia, dyspnea and dysphonia. We present the case of a 63-year-old patient with hoarseness and dysphagia. Studies revealed anterior displacement of the arytenoid cartilage and collapse of the pyriform sinus secondary to an osteophyte at C4 level. The patient showed improvement with conservative management. We present a discussion about this case and the available scientific evidence on the diagnosis and treatment of this pathology.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Identificar la relación entre la inclinación de la eminencia articular de pacientes clase II esquelética con signos de osteoartrosis, medidos con tomografía computarizada de haz cónico (TCHC) en pacientes del Centro de Diagnóstico por Imágenes (CDI) en Lima, Perú, entre los años 2010 y 2014. Materiales y método: El grupo de estudio retrospectivo será planificado de acuerdo con el tamaño de muestra de estimación y consistirá en exploraciones con TCHC de pacientes asintomáticos; las imágenes serán obte-nidas del archivo del CDI, previa solicitud al director. Las imágenes TCHC serán analizadas con el software RealScan 2.0 (Point Nix. Corea) para los defectos óseos mediante reconstrucción multiplanar en vistas axiales, coronales, sagitales, cortes transaxiales, así como la evalua-ción mediante reconstrucciones 3D en volumen rendering y para la inclinación de la eminencia articular, una de las vistas axiales sobre la cual se observan los procesos condilares en su más amplia extensión lateral medial y que es utilizada como vista de referencia para la reconstrucción secundaria. Resultados: El promedio de edad fue de 30 años ± 6,13 y no hubo diferencias significativas entre sexos. El ángulo ANB en promedio la muestra fue de 7,02° ± 1,80° y no hubo diferencias significativas entre géneros. Los valores cuantitativos de la inclinación de la eminencia articular medidos a través de los ángulos EBT y ETR no tuvieron diferencias significativas entre lados. No se encontró asociación significativa entre el ángulo de la eminencia articular EBT y la presencia de cambios óseos dege-nerativos. En el caso de la asociación entre el grado del ángulo de la eminencia articular ETR y la presencia de cambios óseos degenerativos, el aplanamiento mostró del lado izquierdo y se encontró asociación significativa con la erosión en el lado derecho. Conclusiones: La incli-nación de la eminencia articular medida en el ángulo EBT de pacientes clase II esquelética y su relación con cambios osteoatrósicos según lado no muestra asociaciones significativas. La inclina-ción de la eminencia articular medida en el ángulo ETR de pacientes clase II esquelética y su relación con cambios osteoartrósicos, según lado del apla-namiento, mostró una asociación signi-ficativa en lado izquierdo y una asocia-ción significativa en la erosión del lado derecho.

Objetive: Identify the relationship between the inclination of the articular eminence of skeletal class II patients with signs of osteoarthrosis measured by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in patients from the Diagnostic Imaging Center (CDI) in Lima, Perú between 2010 and 2014. Material and method: We performed a retrospective study of CBCT explorations in asymptomatic patients. The images were obtained from the head of the Radiology Department of the CDI in Lima, Peru. The CBCT images were analyzed with RealScan 2.0 soft-ware (Point Nix. Korea) for bone defects by multiplanar reconstruction in axial, coronal, sagittal, transaxial planes as well as evaluation by 3D reconstruction in volume rendering and for the inclina-tion of the articular eminence. An axial view showing the condylar processes at their broadest lateral medial extension was used as the reference for secondary reconstruction. Results: The mean age of the patients studied was 30 years ± 6.13, with no significant differences between sexes. The mean ANB angle was 7.02° ± 1.80°, with no significant differences between sexes. The quantitative values of the inclination of the joint eminence measured according to the EBT and ETR angles, showed no significant differences between sides There was no significant association between the degree of the angle of the EBT articular eminence and the presence of degenerative bone changes. The association between the degree of the ETR joint eminence shown by flattening on the left side and the presence of degenerative bone changes demonstrated by erosion on the right side was found to be significant. Coclu-sions: No significant association was found between the inclination of the joint eminence measured in the EBT angle of skeletal class II patients and its relation-ship with osteoarthritic changes. There was a significant association between the inclination of the joint eminence at the ETR angles shown by flattening on the left side and osteoarthritic changes observed as erosion on the right side.

ABSTRACT

Disc herniation is a frequent pathology in the radiologist's daily practice. There are different pathologies that can simulate a herniated disc from the clinical and especially the imaging point of view that we should consider whenever we report a herniated disc. These lesions may originate from the vertebral body (osteophytes and metastases), the intervertebral disc (discal cyst), the intervertebral foramina (neurinomas), the interapophyseal joints (synovial cyst) and from the epidural space (hematoma and epidural abscess).


La hernia discal es una patología frecuente en la práctica diaria del radiólogo. Hay distintas patologías que pueden simular una hernia discal desde el punto de vista clínico y especialmente imagenológico que debemos considerar cada vez que informamos una hernia discal. Estas lesiones pueden provenir del cuerpo vertebral (osteofitos y metástasis), del disco intervertebral (quiste discal), de los forámenes intervertebrales (neurinomas), de las articulaciones interapofisiarias (quiste sinovial) y desde el espacio epidural (hematoma y absceso epidural).

ABSTRACT

Doenças degenerativas na coluna cervical são comuns nos pacientes idosos. Os autores apresentam caso de paciente do sexo feminino, 44 anos, com quadro de disfagia progressiva relacionada à osteofitose cervical anterior em (C5-C6 e C6-C7). Esofagograma mostrou a compreensão esofágica pelos osteófitos anteriores. O tratamento realizado foi brocagem dos osteófitos, discectomia cervical em dois níveis e artrodese cervical, resultando na remissão completa do sintoma. Embora seja uma causa de disfagia, osteófito deve ser incluído como diagnóstico diferencial pois é uma causa tratável e reversível do sintoma.


Degenerative diseases of the cervical spine are common in elderly patients. The authors present a case report of female, 44 years old, with progressive dysphagia due to anterior cervical osteophytes (C5-C6 and C6-C7). Esophagogram showed esophageal compression by anterior osteophytes. The treatment was removal of osteophytes by drill, cervical discectomy on two levels and cervical arthrodesis, resulting in complete remission of symptoms. Although it is an un-common cause of dysphagia, osteophytes should be included in the differential diagnosis because it is a reatable and reversible cause of the symptom.

ABSTRACT

We present a case of a 73-year-old male patient with progressive dysphagia, and hoarseness (irritability in the throat). He was studied with the appropriate imaging techniques, and esophagoscopy led to a diagnosis of extrinsic esophageal dysphagia for osteophyte obstruction of the cervical spine due to the arthrosis. A surgical resection was performed, without complications. Some considerations are given on this theme.

ABSTRACT

La hiperostosis esquelética idiopática difusa (DISH) o enfermedad de Forestier es una patología que presenta como principal manifestación la osificación del ligamento longitudinal anterior (LLA) y la formación de puentes óseos intervertebrales. Las repercusiones otorrinolaringológicas con poca frecuencia son descritas, siendo la disfagia, la disfonía y la disnea los síntomas más comunes. Presentamos dos casos clínicos de DISH en pacientes de sexo masculino de setenta y cuatro años y otro de setenta y un años respectivamente, con disfagia de varias semanas de evolución asociado a disfonía y disnea en un caso. Realizamos la discusión de ambos casos y de las manifestaciones otorrinolaringológicas de esta patología.


Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hiperostosis (DISH) or Forester's disease is a pathology characterized by the ossification of the anterior longitudinal ligament (ALL) and the formation of intervertebral osseous bridges. The otolaryngology repercussions are rarely described, dysphagia, hoarseness and dyspnea being the most common symptoms. We present a clinical case of two patients with DISH in a 74 year-old male patient and another of 71 year-old respectively, suffering from several weeks of dysphagia associated with dysphonia and dyspnea in one case. We are going to discuss both cases together with the otolaryngological manifestations of this pathology.

ABSTRACT

Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis is a condition of unknown cause, characterized by calcification and ossification of entheseal sites, which generally causes ankylosis of the spinal column and ossification of the extra-spinal ligaments or tendons. The case reported is from the cervical region of the spinal column of skeletal remains. Knowledge of the multiple clinical and functional implications analyzed is of great importance when approaching patients with said manifestations.


La hiperostosis esquelética difusa idiopática es una afección de causa desconocida, caracterizada por calcificación y osificación de sitios de entesis, que generalmente ocasiona anquilosis de la columna vertebral y osificación de ligamentos o tendones. El caso reportado es a partir de la región cervical de la columna vertebral de un resto esquelético. El conocimiento de las múltiples implicaciones clínicas y funcionales analizadas es de gran importancia para el momento del abordaje de pacientes con dichas manifestaciones.
