ABSTRACT

RESUMEN El vólvulo gástrico agudo (VGA) es una entidad infrecuente, con elevada mortalidad de hasta 50%, y su diagnóstico se basa en un alto nivel de sospecha clínica. En el paciente estable se puede plantear manejo no operatorio, pero en el inestable se impone el tratamiento quirúrgico. Presentamos el caso de un paciente con VGA e inestabilidad hemodinámica, en el cual se realizó laparotomía y devolvulación gástrica, pero falleció en el posoperatorio inmediato por shock refractario.


ABSTRACT Acute gastric volvulus (AGV) is an uncommon condition with high mortality (up to 50%) and its diagnosis is based on high level of suspicion. Conservative management can be attempted in stable patients, but the surgical approach is indicated in unstable cases. We report the case of a patient with AGV and hemodynamic instability who underwent laparotomy with reduction of the volvulus but who died in the immediate postoperative period due to refractory shock.

ABSTRACT

El vólvulo de la vesícula biliar es una enfermedad rara y poco frecuente de difícil diagnóstico de manera preoperatoria, ya que las manifestaciones clínicas son atribuidas a otras enfermedades. Se presenta un caso de una paciente femenina de 84años de edad que ingresó en el servicio de cirugía general con un cuadro de dolor abdominal a tipo cólico en hipocondrio derecho acompañado de náusea y vómitos con restos de alimentos. Se realizó examen físico y se indicó ultrasonido abdominal. Se interpretó como una colecistitis aguda litiásica. Se impuso un tratamiento con ceftriaxone. Dado su evolución no desfavorable, cinco días después de su ingreso se realizó la colecistectomía donde se encuentra órgano volvulado. La biopsia confirma colecistitis aguda gangrenada. La paciente evolucionó satisfactoriamente. Tres días posteriores a la cirugía egresó de la institución(AU)


Gallbladder volvulus is a rare and infrequent disease difficult to diagnose preoperatively, as clinical manifestations are attributed to other diseases. A case is presented of an 84-year-old female patient who entered the general surgery service with abdominal colicky pain to the right hypochondrium accompanied by nausea and vomiting with food remains. A physical examination was performed and abdominal ultrasound was indicated. It was interpreted as acute lithiasic cholecystitis. Ceftriaxone was prescribed. Given the unfavorable evolution five days after admission, the cholecystectomy was performed, where the volvulus was found. The biopsy confirms acute gangrenous cholecystitis. The patient evolved satisfactorily. Three days after the surgery he was discharged from the institution(AU)

ABSTRACT

La hernia hiatal tipo IV es la más rara. Se puede reparar por vía abdominal o torácica y por la cirugía laparoscópica mínimo invasiva. Paciente de 67 años de edad, de sexo femenino, que presentaba desde hace más menos 5 meses cuadros de vómitos postprandiales inmediatos con repercusión en el estado nutricional, llega con deshidratación ligera al servicio de urgencias, se realiza panendoscopia digestiva superior de urgencia diagnosticándose una hernia paraesofágica con el estómago intratorácico, se complementó el estudio con una serie esófago-gastroduodenal corroborando el diagnóstico de vólvulo gástrico órgano-axial. Se discute el caso en colectivo y se decide su corrección quirúrgica por vía laparoscópica con evolución satisfactoria(AU)


The hiatal hernia type IV is the weirdest.

An upper digestive panendoscopy is done.Diagnosis: Paraesophageal hernia in intrathoracic stomach the medical examinationwas complemented with a esophagus - gastorduodenal study, assuring the gastric volvulus axial- organ diagnosis. The case is analyzed by medical team and patient was treather surgically through laparoscopic surgery. Patient improved satisfactorily(AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Presentar un caso de vólvulo gástrico obstructivo. Caso clínico: Presentamos el caso de una paciente que inició con un episodio de obstrucción intestinal por una volvulación gástrica. El antecedente de otro episodio antiguo y la radiología de tórax alertaron de una posible hernia diafragmática crónica. La buena respuesta al tratamiento médico inicial permitió un estudio completo y una cirugía programada mediante abordaje laparoscópico.


Aim: To present a patient with gastric volvulus. Case report: A case of a female patient who started with an episode of intestinal obstruction due to gastric volvulus. The history of a former episode and chest radiology alerted us to a possible chronic diaphragmatic hernia. The patient's good response to initial medical treatment allowed a complete study and laparoscopic intervention.

ABSTRACT

Neonatal acute gastric volvulus is rare and often associated with diaphragmatic anomalies. Patients usually present with vomiting and respiratory distress, but excessive salivation, failure to pass a nasogastric tube beyond 20 cms and the presence of a space occupying thoracic lesion should also prompt a search for the entity. The authors describe a case presenting with these atypical findings and stress the importance of the plain radiograph chest to make a diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Gastric volvulus is a rare abdominal emergency in children and occurs secondary to associated predisposing congenital defects. The less frequent idiopathic variety of gastric volvulus is mostly chronic in its clinical course. Acute idiopathic mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus is a rare subtype and two out of the four reported cases of this entity among children in the past 12 years have been from the Indian subcontinent. We report another case of acute idiopathic mesenteroaxial gastric volvulus in a 7 year old Indian girl. Possibly there is an increased propensity of Asians to this is potentially fatal disease.
