ABSTRACT
RESUMO Objetivo: relatar a experiência da Divisão de Cirurgia Plástica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo no tratamento de lesões cutâneas por extravasamento acidental de drogas. Métodos: foram incluídos os pacientes com lesões por extravasamento de drogas num período de 18 meses. Os seguintes parâmetros foram avaliados retrospectivamente: idade, diagnósticos durante internação e comorbidades, níveis séricos de albumina e hemoglobina, local de internação, droga envolvida, segmento anatômico acometido, conduta terapêutica e óbito durante internação. Resultados: foram acompanhados 14 pacientes. A principal droga envolvida foi a noradrenalina (21%). Todos os pacientes foram submetidos a desbridamento da necrose tecidual. Três pacientes foram submetidos a retalhos após preparo do leito com terapia por pressão negativa, com bons resultados. Sete pacientes não tiveram tratamento definitivo de suas lesões por falta de condições clínicas. Conclusão: o tratamento definitivo por meio de retalhos se mostrou adequado para os casos de feridas por extravasamento de drogas em tecido subcutâneo, quando há exposição de estruturas nobres, em pacientes com condições clínicas favoráveis.
ABSTRACT Objective: to report the experience of the Division of Plastic Surgery of the Hospital das Clínicas of the Medical School of the University of São Paulo in the treatment of cutaneous lesions due to accidental extravasation of drugs. Methods: we included patients with lesions due to extravasation of drugs over a period of 18 months. We retrospectively evaluated the following parameters: age, diagnoses during hospitalization and comorbidities, serum levels of albumin and hemoglobin, place of hospitalization, drug involved, anatomic segment affected, therapeutic management and death during hospitalization. Results: we followed-up 14 patients. The main drug involved was noradrenaline (21%). All patients underwent debridement of tissue necrosis. Three patients were submitted to flaps after preparation of the wound bed with negative pressure therapy, with good results. Seven patients had no definitive treatment of their lesions due to lack of clinical conditions. Conclusion: in patients with favorable clinical conditions, the definitive treatment with flaps was adequate for cases of wounds due to extravasation of drugs in the subcutaneous tissue when there was exposure of noble structures.

Se analiza el tratamiento quirúrgico en las extravasaciones de citostáticos por vía periférica. Se discute cuándo y cómo realizarlo. Se lo ubica dentro del contexto de los otros dos tratamientos: el de urgencia y el clínico. Se señala que el tipo de citostático utilizado y el estado clínico de paciente influyen en esta decisión.
Surgical treatment in peripheral cytostatic extravasations is analysed. It discusses when and how to perform it. It is placed within the context of the other two treatments: the emergency and the clinical. It is pointed out that the type of cytostatic used and the clinical status of the patient influence this decision.

Se presenta el caso clínico de un dispositivo intrauterino ubicado en el lumen de la trompa de Falopio con hidrosalpinx secundario, diagnosticado en forma incidental al realizar una radiografía de columna lumbar, estudio complementado con ecotomografia transvaginal. Se realizó laparoscopia diagnóstica y salpingectomía sin complicaciones.
We present a case of asymptomatic IUD inserted in the right uterine tube, with secondary hydrosalpinx. The IUD was found during a non-related X-ray examination of lumbar spine. She underwent laparoscopic surgery and removal of the uterine tube, without any further complication. We discuss the current treatment of intraabdominal lUDs.
