ABSTRACT

Introdução: A hipertrofia de pequenos lábios combinada com capuz clitoriano redundante é uma queixa comum entre mulheres que procuram cirurgia plástica genital cosmética por queixas funcionais, psicológicas e estéticas. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a técnica boomerang, um tratamento cirúrgico da hipertrofia labial que se estende a todo o capuz clitoriano. Método: Foi conduzido um estudo retrospectivo, de caráter analítico, para avaliar os prontuários médicos de 48 pacientes consecutivas submetidas a cirurgia estética genital feminina entre julho de 2017 e julho de 2021. Todos os procedimentos cirúrgicos foram realizados pela mesma cirurgiã. A técnica utilizada nas pacientes consistiu na ressecção longitudinal dos excessos de pequenos lábios vaginais associado à ressecção de capô clitoriano em forma de boomerang e à clitoropexia. Resultados: A idade média das pacientes submetidas a cirurgia foi de 36,25 anos (intervalo 18-59 anos), entre as quais 94,44% apresentaram queixas estéticas associadas ou não a queixas funcionais, e 5,56% apresentaram somente queixas funcionais. Duas pacientes apresentaram hematomas nos grandes lábios no pós-operatório imediato, e uma paciente teve deiscência de sutura nos pequenos lábios. Conclusão: A técnica boomerang é reprodutível e proporciona benefícios estéticos e/ou funcionais na genitália feminina.


Introduction: Hypertrophy of the labia minora combined with a redundant clitoral hood is a common complaint among women seeking aesthetic genital cosmetic surgery for functional, psychological, and aesthetic complaints. The objective of this study was to describe the boomerang technique, a surgical treatment for labial hypertrophy that extends to the entire clitoral hood. Method: A retrospective, analytical study was conducted to evaluate the medical records of forty-eight consecutive patients who underwent female genital cosmetic surgery between July 2017 and July 2021. The same surgeon performed all surgical procedures. The technique used in the patients consisted of longitudinal resection of excess small vaginal lips associated with resection of the boomerang-shaped clitoral hood associated with clitoroplasty. Results: The average age of patients undergoing surgery was 36.25 years (range 18-59 years), among whom 94.44% had aesthetic complaints associated or not with functional complaints, and 5.56% had only functional complaints. Two patients had bruises on the labia majora in the immediate postoperative period, and one patient had suture dehiscence on the labia minora. Conclusion: The boomerang technique is reproducible and provides aesthetic and/or functional benefits to the female genitalia.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: O carcinoma basocelular (CBC) de vulva é uma condição rara que corresponde a menos de 0,4% dos casos de CBC e de 2% a 4% das neoplasias de vulva. O CBC de vulva é mais comum entre mulheres brancas, multíparas e na pósmenopausa, especialmente na sétima década de vida. O objetivo é relatar um caso de CBC de vulva no qual discutiram-se os aspectos do diagnóstico e tratamento. Relato de Caso: Mulher de 63 anos de idade, G1P1A0, chega ao consultório em janeiro de 2022 para tratamento de lesão persistente em vulva. Realizou-se biópsia incisional que mostrou tratar-se de provável carcinoma basocelular nodular com invasão da derme. A paciente submeteu-se a uma ressecção do tumor com margens macroscópicas livres e sutura primária. A cirurgia não teve complicações no pré-operatório e no pós-operatório. O histopatológico da peça cirúrgica mostrou tratar-se de carcinoma basocelular nodular com área irregular, plana, branco, medindo 0,7x0,4cm, com as margens laterais distando 7,0 e 5,0mm e profundas, 5,9mm; todas livres. Conclusão: O caso relatado é raro, tendo sido o tratamento de ressecção cirúrgica do CBC de vulva com margens bem-sucedido. Catorze meses após a cirurgia, a paciente encontra-se sem evidências de recidiva local ou regional.


Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the vulva is a rare condition that accounts for less than 0.4% of BCC cases and 2% to 4% of vulvar neoplasms. BCC of the vulva is more common among white, multiparous and postmenopausal women, especially in the seventh decade of life. The aim is to report a case of BCC of the vulva in which aspects of diagnosis and treatment were discussed. Case report: A 63-year-old woman, G1P1A0, arrives at the office in January 2022 for treatment of a persistent lesion on her vulva. An incisional biopsy was performed and showed that it was likely nodular basal cell carcinoma with invasion of the dermis. The patient underwent tumor resection with free macroscopic margins and primary suture. The surgery had no complications preoperatively or postoperatively. The histopathology of the surgical specimen showed that it was a nodular basal cell carcinoma with an irregular, flat, white area, measuring 0.7x0.4cm, with the lateral margins 7.0 and 5.0mm apart and 5.9mm deep; all free. Conclusion: The reported case is rare, with surgical resection of BCC of the vulva with margins being successful. Fourteen months after surgery, the patient has no evidence of local or regional recurrence.

ABSTRACT

O tumor filoide é uma neoplasia fibroepitelial rara que representa 0,3 a 1% de todas as neoplasias mamárias. De acordo com a classificação histopatológica, 12 a 26% são do tipo borderline e aproximadamente 15% desses tumores recorrem após excisão cirúrgica. O tratamento recomendado para todos os tipos de tumor filoide é a excisão cirúrgica, e no caso de tumores gigantes o tratamento deve ser multidisciplinar. Apresentamos o caso de uma mulher de 46 anos com tumor filoide na mama esquerda que recorreu 4 anos após a excisão cirúrgica. O estudo anatomopatológico qualificou-o como tumor gigante e o estudo histopatológico relatou tumor filoide borderline. Foi submetida a excisão cirúrgica com mastectomia esquerda e reconstrução mamária com retalho de grande dorsal mais enxerto de gordura. A paciente apresentou evolução favorável sem recidiva. Concluindo, o tumor filoide gigante borderline recorrente é raro e seu manejo cirúrgico representa um desafio tanto na excisão quanto na reconstrução mamária.


Phyllodes tumor is a rare fibroepithelial neoplasm that represents 0.3 to 1% of all breast neoplasms. According to histopathologic classification, 12 to 26% are borderline type and approximately 15% of these tumors recur after surgical excision. The recommended treatment for all types of phyllodes tumor is surgical excision, and in the case of giant tumors the treatment should be multidisciplinary. We present the case of a 46-yearold woman with a phyllodes tumor in the left breast that recurred 4 years after surgical excision. The anatomopathological study qualified it as a giant tumor and the histopathological study reported a borderline phyllodes tumor. She underwent surgical excision with left mastectomy and breast reconstruction by means of a latissimus dorsi flap plus fat graft. The patient presented a favorable evolution without recurrence. In conclusion, the recurrent giant borderline phyllodes tumor is rare and its surgical management represents a challenge both in breast excision and reconstruction.

ABSTRACT

Circulating tumor DNA(ctDNA)is a kind of cell-free DNA derived from tumors,which carries comprehensive tumor genetic information;Recent studies have found that ctDNA detection can play a role in the early diagnosis,targeted therapy,and prediction of recurrence in tumors.Human papillomavirus(HPV)-associated gynecological malignancies include most cervical cancer,some vulvar cancer,and vaginal cancer.High-risk HPV long-term infection and integration with cell genome are important causes of these cancers.Studies found that the use of ctDNA detection technology to dynamically monitor changes in HPV-ctDNA can provide valuable information for the clinical management and prognosis of these cancers.Thus,HPV-ctDNA is expected to become an biomarker for HPV-associated tumors.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: mapear os estudos que mensuraram o potencial Hidrogeniônico (pH) da região vulvar no ciclo vital da mulher. Métodos: revisão de escopo conforme recomendações do Manual for Evidence Synthesis do Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), nas bases SCOPUS, Web of Science, Academic Search Premier, PubMed, Bielefeld Academic Search Engine e Google Acadêmico em janeiro de 2022. Foram incluídos estudos publicados em português, espanhol, francês e inglês, sem limite temporal. Resultados: dos 954 documentos recuperados, 13 foram selecionados. Apurou- se que os estudos utilizaram diferentes procedimentos para as medições quanto aos equipamentos, ambiente e preparo das participantes. A média de idade apresentada pela população feminina estudada variou entre 31 e 43 anos. Os locais de medição vulvar foram os grandes e pequenos lábios, dobra interlabial e períneo. O menor valor do pH aferido foi 4,6 e o maior 6,3. Conclusões: constatou-se baixa produção de estudos acerca do pH vulvar e ênfase das pesquisas na população de mulheres adultas. A diversidade de procedimentos e locais de aferição encontrados não permite afirmações seguras sobre uma faixa de valor de pH da superfície da pele vulvar.


Introduction: to map the studies that measured the Potential of Hydrogen (pH) of the vulvar region in women's life cycle. Methods: scoping review according to recommendations from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Manual for Evidence Synthesis in the SCOPUS, Web of Science, Academic Search Premier, PubMed, Bielefeld Academic Search Engine and Google Scholar databases in January 2022. Studies published in Portuguese, Spanish, French, and English, without time limit, were included. Results: of the 954 documents retrieved, 13 were selected. Different measurement procedures in relation to equipment, environment and preparation of participants were used in the studies. The average age of the female population ranged between 31 and 43 years. The vulvar measurement sites were the labia majora and minora, interlabial sulci and perineum. The lowest pH value measured was 4.6 and the highest was 6.3. Conclusions: there was a low production of studies on vulvar pH and an emphasis of studies on the population of adult women. The diversity of procedures and measurement sites found does not allow for safe statements about a range of pH values on the surface of the vulvar skin.

ABSTRACT

Fibroma mole, ou pólipo fibroepitelial, é uma lesão de proporções geralmente reduzidas, de cor hiperpigmentada ou igual à da pele, localizando-se frequentemente na face, pescoço, tronco e regiões intertriginosas. É um tumor classificado como benigno e pode acometer tanto homens quanto mulheres em idade reprodutiva e depois da quarta década de vida. Ocorre principalmente em obesos, diabéticos e durante a gestação. Com menor frequência, podem alcançar dimensões que excedem 5 cm. Seu crescimento pode ser lento ou rápido e comumente são assintomáticos, mas podem promover sangramentos por conta de ulcerações decorrentes de traumas repetidos. Apresentamos neste relato um fibroma mole, gigante, de localização vulvar, com 11 cm de comprimento, 11 cm de largura e 5 cm de espessura, pesando 500 g.


Giant soft vulvar fibroma is a fibroepithelial polyp lesion with generally reduced proportions, with a hyperpigmented color or similar to that of the skin, frequently located on the face, neck, trunk and intertriginous regions. It is a tumor classified as benign, can affect both men and women, of reproductive age and after the fourth decade, mainly obese, diabetic and during pregnancy. However, less frequently, they can reach dimensions that exceed 5 cm, may have a slow or accelerated evolution. They are commonly asymptomatic, but bleeding may be present due to ulcerations resulting from repeated trauma. In the current study, we describe a giant soft fibroma with a vulvar location measuring 11 cm in length, 11 cm in width, 5 cm in thickness and weighing 500 grams.

ABSTRACT

Los pólipos fibroepiteliales son tumores cutáneos benignos frecuentes en la población general. Sin embargo, la afectación del tracto genital es inhabitual. Su etiología no es clara, pero se han descrito asociaciones con trastornos metabólicos y fluctuaciones hormonales, lo cual explica su mayor prevalencia en mujeres. Debido a la variedad de diagnósticos diferenciales, es necesaria la evaluación histopatológica. Su manejo es habitualmente conservador; sin embargo, pueden requerir intervención quirúrgica en algunos casos. Exponemos cuatro casos de tumores fibroepiteliales vulvares de diferentes tamaños, uno de ellos clasificado como gigante, así como la aproximación de manejo. Con esta presentación, esperamos mejorar el conocimiento, la precisión del diagnóstico y contribuir al tratamiento eficaz de las pacientes con esta patología vulvar tan poco frecuente.


Fibroepithelial polyps are common benign skin tumors in the general population. However, genital tract involvement is unusual. Their etiology is unclear, but associations with metabolic disorders and hormonal fluctuations have been described, which explains their higher prevalence in women. Due to the variety of differential diagnoses, histopathological evaluation is necessary. Their management is usually conservative. However, they may require surgical intervention in some cases. We present four cases of vulvar fibroepithelial tumors of different sizes, one of them classified as giant, as well as the management approach. With this presentation, we hope to improve knowledge, diagnostic accuracy and contribute to the effective treatment of patients with this rare vulvar pathology.

ABSTRACT

Metastatic Crohn's disease (MCD) is a rare cutaneous manifestation of Crohn's disease (CD). The simultaneous involvement of the vulva and oral region is uncommon in clinical presentations of MCD. We present the case of a middle-aged woman with a family history of autoimmunity who initially presented with oral and vulvoperineal involvement. Initially, Behçet's disease was ruled out, but histopathological studies of the vulva revealed findings compatible with MCD. The patient had no gastrointestinal symptoms, and fecal calprotectin levels were normal. Upper and lower endoscopic examinations and capsule endoscopy of the small intestine (SI) did not reveal any significant findings. Treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents was initiated but resulted in paradoxical psoriasis with adalimumab and infliximab. Cyclosporine was also used, but the patient experienced intolerable tachycardia. After 18 months, the patient developed episcleritis and experienced diarrhea accompanied by cramp-like abdominal pain. Repeat upper and lower endoscopic examinations showed normal results, while capsule endoscopy of the SI revealed CD enteritis. The patient was diagnosed with CD of the small intestine, along with extraintestinal manifestations of vulvoperineal MCD, oral involvement, and episcleritis. Management with azathioprine and ustekinumab was initiated, resulting in significant clinical improvement. MCD poses a diagnostic challenge due to its unusual manifestations. It may present without gastrointestinal tract involvement, mimicking other conditions. Therefore, timely diagnosis and the selection of the most appropriate therapeutic strategy are crucial.


La enfermedad de Crohn metastásica (ECM) es una entidad rara, es una manifestación cutánea en enfermedad Crohn (EC), y en su presentación clínica es inusual el compromiso vulvar y oral de modo concomitante. Se describe el caso de una mujer de edad media que tiene historia familiar de autoinmunidad, presenta inicialmente compromiso oral y vulvoperineal. En su abordaje inicial se descartó enfermedad de Behçet, pero los estudios histopatológicos a nivel vulvar tuvieron hallazgos compatibles para ECM. Hubo ausencia de síntomas gastrointestinales y sus niveles de calprotectina fecal eran normales. Los estudios endoscópicos altos y bajos, y la cápsula endoscópica del intestino delgado (ID) no tuvieron hallazgos relevantes. Se inició el tratamiento con antifactor de necrosis tumoral (anti-TNF) y presentó una psoriasis paradójica con adalimumab e infliximab. También se utilizó ciclosporina y presentó una taquicardia intolerable. 18 meses después de estos síntomas tuvo epiescleritis e inició con diarrea asociada a dolor abdominal tipo cólico, por lo que se repitieron los estudios endoscópicos altos y bajos, que resultaron normales, y cápsula endoscópica de ID mostró una enteritis por EC. Se consideró EC de ID con manifestaciones extraintestinales y con ECM vulvoperineal, compromiso oral y epiescleritis. Se requirió manejo con azatioprina y ustekinumab, con una mejoría clínica significativa. La ECM es un reto diagnóstico, pues es una manifestación inusual; en su debut puede haber ausencia de compromiso en el tracto gastrointestinal y también simular otras entidades. Debe buscarse lograr el diagnóstico oportuno y la estrategia terapéutica más segura.

ABSTRACT

La enfermedad de Behçet (EB) es un trastorno inflamatorio, multisistémico, recidivante y remitente de etiología desconocida. Una característica clave de la enfermedad es la ulceración orogenital que provoca una morbilidad considerable con gran impacto en la calidad de vida de los pacientes. Su manejo médico consiste en un esquema con colchicina, esteroides o inmunomoduladores. Comunicamos el caso de una paciente con lesiones genitales quien consultó en múltiples ocasiones, recibiendo manejo antibiótico e incluso quirúrgico, con respuesta refractaria a estas intervenciones. Posteriormente, por las características de las lesiones y el comportamiento clínico se sospechó enfermedad de Behçet y se instauró manejo médico con esteroides orales y curaciones con fitoestimulina. Hubo resolución de las úlceras genitales y posteriormente la paciente fue llevada a cirugía para corrección de las sinequias vulvares.


Behçet's disease (BD) is an inflammatory, multisystemic, relapsing-remitting disorder of unknown etiology. A key feature of the disease is orogenital ulceration that causes considerable morbidity with great impact on patient's quality of life. Its medical management consists of a scheme with colchicine, steroids or immunomodulators. We report the case of a patient with genital lesions who consulted on multiple occasions, receiving antibiotics and even surgical management, with refractory response to these interventions. Subsequently, due to the characteristics of the lesion and clinical behavior, Behçet's disease was suspected and medical management with oral steroids and cures with phytostimulin was initiated. The genital ulcers were resolved, and the patient was subsequently taken to surgery for correction of the vulvar synechiae.

ABSTRACT

Resumen ANTECEDENTES: El tumor de células granulares de la vulva es poco común y de origen neurogénico. Afecta, principalmente, a mujeres entre 60 y 70 años y es más frecuente en la raza negra. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 63 años, con una lesión vulvar indolora y no pruriginosa, en crecimiento. En la exploración se observó una lesión excrecente de 2.5 cm en la región superior del labio mayor izquierdo, dura, vascularizada y con infiltración a 2 cm de profundidad. No se palparon adenopatías sospechosas. Luego del reporte de la biopsia, sugerente de tumor de células granulares, se practicó una escisión completa, con márgenes libres. El estudio inmunohistoquímico se reportó positivo para CD68, S100 y TFE3 lo que confirmó el diagnóstico. Puesto que el índice proliferativo (Ki67) fue inferior al 5% y los márgenes quirúrgicos estaban libres, no se requirió tratamiento adyuvante. La paciente permanece en seguimiento y sin signos de recidiva. CONCLUSIÓN: Si bien los tumores de células granulares de la vulva son poco comunes y casi siempre benignos, deben incluirse en el diagnóstico diferencial de una tumoración vulvar. La inmunohistoquímica es la herramienta más útil para el diagnóstico preciso y su tratamiento de elección es la escisión local amplia, por su tendencia a la recurrencia local.


Abstract BACKGROUND: Granular cell tumor of the vulva is rare and neurogenic in origin. It mainly affects women between 60 and 70 years of age and is more frequent in black women. CLINICAL CASE: A 63-year-old woman with a painless, non-pruritic, growing vulvar lesion. Examination revealed a 2.5 cm excrescent lesion in the upper region of the left labium majus, hard, vascularized and infiltrated to a depth of 2 cm. No suspicious lymph nodes were palpated. After the biopsy report, suggestive of granular cell tumor, complete excision was performed, with free margins. The immunohistochemical study was positive for CD68, S100 and TFE3 which confirming the diagnosis. Since the proliferative index (Ki67) was less than 5% and the surgical margins were clear, adjuvant treatment was not required. The patient remains in follow-up with no signs of recurrence. CONCLUSION: Although granular cell tumors of the vulva are rare and almost always benign, they should be included in the differential diagnosis of a vulvar tumor. Immunohistochemistry is the most useful tool for accurate diagnosis and their treatment of choice is wide local excision because of their tendency for local recurrence.

ABSTRACT

Os grandes lábios tornam-se flácidos com o envelhecimento. Apesar de o preenchimento com ácido hialurônico proporcionar um rejuvenescimento significativo, ele também pode levar à formação de verdadeiros testículos vulvares se mal indicado, principalmente em vulvas excessivamente flácidas, que não suportam qualquer volumização adicional. Nesses casos de flacidez excessiva, acreditamos que os bioestimuladores de colágeno seriam o melhor tratamento inicial, pois sua injeção levaria à reposição de colágeno dérmico, com melhora da frouxidão, sem acréscimo expressivo de volume. Temos utilizado a hidroxiapatita de cálcio, o ácido l-polilático e os fios não espiculados de PDO, desde 2019, com bons resultados.


The labia majora become saggy with aging. Although filling with hyaluronic acid provides significant rejuvenation, it can also lead to the formation of true vulvar testicles if poorly indicated, especially in excessively flaccid vulvas, which do not support any further volumization. In these cases of excessive flaccidity, we believe that collagen biostimulators would be the best initial treatment, as their injection would lead to the replacement of dermal collagen and improvement in laxity, without a significant increase in volume. We have been using calcium hydroxyapatite, l-polylactic acid, and PDO threads since 2019, with good results.

ABSTRACT

Resumen ANTECEDENTES: Las quemaduras son la forma más severa de estrés que el cuerpo puede sufrir; pueden generarse por diferentes agentes térmicos y químicos. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 25 años, con dolor intenso en la región genital de 12 horas de evolución, secundario a la introducción en la vagina de una piedra de alumbre. Se le hicieron múltiples irrigaciones con solución salina al 0.9% sin obtener el resto de la piedra de alumbre. Se le aplicó sulfadiazina de plata en la cavidad vaginal cada 12 horas, óvulos vaginales de ketanserina, miconazol y metronidazol cada 8 horas, ketorolaco por vía oral 10 mg cada 8 horas. Durante su estancia hospitalaria tuvo buena evolución, con disminución de la inflamación en la zona genital, epitelización adecuada. Al tercer día se dio de alta del hospital con cita para valoración a los siete días. CONCLUSIÓN: El tratamiento de las quemaduras en el área genital, por agentes químicos, tiene como piedra angular la identificación del agente causante de la lesión que permita actuar de forma inmediata y evitar las secuelas físicas, sexuales y psicológicas mediante el lavado exhaustivo con solución o agua estéril para remover el agente causal y disminuir que continúe actuando en el sitio afectado.


Abstract BACKGROUND: Burns are the most severe form of stress that the body can suffer; they can be caused by various thermal and chemical agents. CLINICAL CASE: A 25-year-old female patient presented with severe genital pain of 12 hours' duration, secondary to the introduction of an alum stone into the vagina. She underwent several irrigations with 0.9% saline without obtaining the rest of the alum stone. She was given vaginal silver sulfadiazine every 12 hours, vaginal ketanserin, miconazole and metronidazole every 8 hours and oral ketorolac 10 mg every 8 hours. During her stay in hospital, she progressed well, with a decrease in genital inflammation and adequate epithelialisation. She was discharged on the third day with an appointment for a seven-day follow-up. CONCLUSION: The management of genital burns caused by chemical agents is based on the identification of the agent causing the lesion, which allows immediate action and prevents physical, sexual and psychological sequelae by thorough washing with sterile solution or water to remove the causative agent and reduce its continued action in the affected area.

ABSTRACT

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) also known as histiocytosis X, is a rare systemic disorder arising from the clonal proliferation of myeloid dendritic cells (histiocytes) with a tendency to involve single or multiple organ systems with variable clinical course and prognosis. Clinical presentation usually depends on the site of involvement. The organs commonly affected in adults by order of decreasing frequency include lungs, bone, skin, pituitary glands, lymph nodes, and the liver. Vulval and perianal involvement is extremely rare in adults. We describe the case of a 31-year-old non-smoker adult female with multisystemic LCH involving the vulva, perianal region, and lung. Probable involvement of other sites with LCH included mandibular bone, pituitary gland, skin, lymph nodes, liver, thyroid, and colon. She is undergoing systemic chemotherapy and has completed two cycles of cytarabine and steroids without any complications. Treatment is not standardized due to the very less incidence of the disease and inadequate knowledge regarding its pathophysiology. Langerhans cell histiocytosis remains a major concern for treating physicians because of its rarity with many faces and requires careful consideration for management.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Gynecological sarcomas are uncommon and their location in the vulva and vagina has an incidence of 5% of all malignant neoplasms of the female genital tract. We present the case of a 54-year-old patient with a diagnosis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans in the vulva, an infrequent pathology, with less than 60 cases reported worldwide in this anatomical location. Clinically it has a locally aggressive behavior, due to the proliferation of spindle cells with pleomorphism and frequent figures of mitosis that infiltrate the reticular dermis and subcutaneous cellular tissue, giving rise to tumor lesions of variable size and with high rates of local recurrence. The treatment of first choice is surgical excision of the tumor with Mohs micrographic surgery or other surgical techniques for complete evaluation of the circumferential and deep peripheral margin. However, the identification of carcinogenesis mechanis ms where the chromosomal translocation t (17; 22) (q22; q13) is recognized, forming the COL1A1-PDGFB fusion gene, which participates in stimulating tumor cell proliferation, allowing treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as imatinib for neoadjuvant therapy of surgically unresectable tumors and local recurrences.


Resumen Los sarcomas ginecológicos son infrecuentes y la localización de estos en vulva y vagina tienen una incidencia del 5% de todas las neoplasias malignas del tracto genital femenino. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 54 años con diagnóstico de dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans en vulva, una patología infrecuente, con menos de 60 casos reportados a nivel mundial en esta localización anatómica. Clínicamente tiene un comportamiento localmente agresivo, debido a la proliferación de células fusiformes con pleomorfismo y frecuentes figuras de mitosis que infiltran la dermis reticular y tejido celular subcutáneo, dando origen a lesiones tumorales de tamaño variable y con altas tasas de recurrencia local. El tratamiento en primera elección es la escisión quirúrgica del tumor con cirugía micrográfica de Mohs u otras técnicas quirúrgicas para evaluación completa del margen periférico circunferencial y profundo. Sin embargo, la identificación de mecanismos de carcinogénesis donde se reconoce la translocación cromosómica t (17; 22) (q22; q13), formando al gen de fusión COL1A1-PDGFB, el cual participa estimulando la proliferación celular tumoral, ha permitido la utilización de los inhibidores de la tirosina quinasa como el imatinib para la realización de terapia neoadyuvante en casos de tumores irresecables quirúrgicamente y en recurrencias locales.

ABSTRACT

El fibroadenoma es una neoplasia benigna usualmente localizada en mama. Su localización vulvar es extremadamente rara, con publicación de pocos casos. Su origen es incierto y muy debatible, en tanto se piensa que puede originarse de un tejido mamario ectópico vulvar o de glándulas anogenitales similares a las de tejido mamario que existen normalmente. Se presenta un caso inusual de fibroadenoma vulvar en una mujer de 29 años que durante dos años evidenció tumoración a nivel de la vulva que le producía dispareunia y sangrado poscoital. A nivel del labio mayor de la vulva se extirpó un tumor bien delimitado de 3 x 2 x 2 cm, blanquecino, de consistencia firme. En la microscopia se observó un fibroadenoma que por inmunohistoquímica mostró positividad para receptores de estrógeno y progesterona.


Fibroadenoma is a benign neoplasm usually located in the breast. Its vulvar location is extremely rare, with few cases published. Its origin is uncertain and highly debatable, as it is thought that it may originate from vulvar ectopic breast tissue or from anogenital glands similar to normally existing breast tissue. An unusual case of vulvar fibroadenoma is presented in a 29-year-old woman who for two years presented with a vulvar lump that caused dyspareunia and postcoital bleeding. At the level of the labium majus of the vulva, a well-demarcated tumor measuring 3 x 2 x 2 cm, whitish, with a firm consistency was excised. Microscopy showed a fibroadenoma which by immunohistochemistry showed positivity for estrogen and progesterone receptors.

ABSTRACT

Las células de Merkel se describieron originalmente en el estrato basal de la epidermis, con propiedades neuroendocrinas. El carcinoma de células de Merkel de la vulva es una neoplasia extremadamente rara y altamente agresiva. Existen pocos casos de estos tumores, la mayoría de los cuales han sido considerados tumores neuroendocrinos. El origen histológico y la etiología de esta enfermedad son controvertidas. Debido a su rareza en esta localización, no está claro si se comporta de manera diferente a los carcinomas de piel similares en otras localizaciones. Se presenta un caso de carcinoma primario de células de Merkel vulvar. El examen de biopsia por escisión reveló una tumoración de 4 x 3 centímetros en el tercio posterior del labio mayor izquierdo de la vulva sin afectación de los ganglios linfáticos. La paciente fue sometida a vulvectomía radical y disección bilateral de ganglios linfáticos inguinales. La evaluación histológica postoperatoria no mostró metástasis regionales ni distantes.


Merkel cells were originally described in the stratum basale of the epidermis with neuroendocrine properties. Merkel cell carcinoma of the vulva is an extremely rare and highly aggressive neoplasm. There are few cases of these tumors, most of which have been considered neuroendocrine tumors. The histologic origin and etiology of this disease are controversial. It is known for his aggressive behavior and propensity for early diffusion. Because of its rarity in this location, it is unclear whether it behaves differently from similar skin carcinomas in other locations. A case of primary vulvar Merkel cell carcinoma is presented. Excisional biopsy examination revealed a 4 x 3-centimeter tumor in the posterior third of the left labium majus of the vulva without lymph node involvement. The patient underwent radical vulvectomy and bilateral inguinal lymph node dissection. Postoperative histological evaluation showed no regional or distant metastases.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar el índice de Caslick en yeguas de la raza caballo peruano de paso y su relación con la conformación de grupa (ángulo de inclinación de grupa y tipo de inserción de cola). Se tomaron medidas morfométricas para hallar el índice de Caslick, la inclinación de grupa y la inserción de cola en yeguas participantes del LXX Concurso Nacional Oficial de Caballos Peruanos de Paso (n = 98). La media del ángulo de inclinación de grupa fue 37,23° ± 4,88°. La mayoría de las yeguas presentó una alta inserción de cola (55,1 %), y el índice de Caslick promedio fue de 42,68 ± 35,05. Más del 90 % de yeguas tuvo una buena conformación vulvar. Se concluyó que no hubo relación entre la inserción de cola y el índice de Caslick (p > 0,05), ni tampoco una correlación entre la edad e inclinación de grupa vs. el índice de Caslick (ρ = -0,187 y 0,042, respectivamente; p > 0,05). Sin embargo, se encontró una correlación negativa entre el número de partos y el índice de Caslick (ρ = -0,264; p < 0,05).


Abstract This study aims to determine the Caslick's Index in Peruvian Paso mares and how it relates to the croup conformation (croup inclination angle and type of tail insertion). To find the Caslick's Index, croup inclination, and tail insertion, some morphometric measures were made in the mares that participated in the LXX Official National Contest of Peruvian Paso Horses (n = 98). The mean for the croup inclination angle was 37.3° + 4.88°. Most of the mares showed a high tail insertion (55.1 %), and the average mean Caslick's Index was 42.68 + 35.05. More than 90% of the mares had a good vulvar conformation. It was concluded that there was no relationship between the tail insertion and the Caslick's Index (p > 0.05), nor any correlation between age and croup inclination vs. Caslick's Index (ρ = -0.187 and 0.042, respectively; p > 0.05). However, a negative correlation was found between the number of labors and the Caslick's Index (ρ = -0.264; p < 0.05).
