ABSTRACT

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A lipomatose simétrica benigna (LSB) foi descrita inicialmente por Madelung em 1888 e possui patogênese ainda desconhecida. É caracterizada por múltiplos depósitos de gordura indolor não encapsulado com disposição simétrica, localizados preferencialmente na região cervical e tronco superior, podendo causar sintomas compressivos e aparência pseudoatlética. O tratamento cirúrgico é o mais efetivo, por ressecção ou por lipossucção. O objetivo deste relato foi apresentar a importância do caso descrito, devido à sua exuberância clínica, apesar de assintomática e sem alterações significativas laboratoriais.RELATO DO CASO: Paciente do sexo masculino, 77 anos, agricultor, natural de Pernambuco. Relatou que há oito meses apresentava crescimento progressivo de massa indolor na região cervical, occipital e superior do tórax, negando outros sintomas que pudessem acompanhar o crescimento e sem história familiar. Hipertenso, etilista e tabagista. Ao exame constatou-se massa volumosa simétrica cervical fibroelástica, na região cervical, não aderida a planos profundos e sem sinais flogísticos.CONCLUSÃO: A LSB foi classificada por Enzi e col. em dois tipos, o paciente em questão foi classificado como tipo I, lipoma predominantemente cervical. A ingesta de álcool consumida pelo paciente tem forte associação com a etiologia da doença de acordo com Enzi e col. Foi realizada lipectomia, com abordagem em dois tempos cirúrgicos devido a invasão de estruturas nobres. O paciente evoluiu bem clinicamente, sem complicações, com bom resultado estético. O presente caso apresentava uma exuberância clínica não condizente com os parâmetros laboratoriais e sintomatologia descrita na literatura.(AU)


BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Benign symmetric lipomatosis (BSL) was first described by Madelung in 1888 and still has unknown pathogenesis. It is characterized by multiple unencapsulated painless fat deposits with symmetrical disposition, preferably located in the cervical region and upper trunk and may cause compressive symptoms and pseudoathletic appearance. Surgical treatment is most effective, and it could be done by resection or liposuction. The objective of this study was to present the importance to describe the case due to your clinical exuberance without symptoms or significant changes in laboratory tests.CASE REPORT: Male patient, 77 years old, farmer, born in Pernambuco. Reported that 8 months ago began progressive growth of a painless mass in the cervical region, occipital region and upper chest, with no family history. He has high blood pressure, alcoholic and smoker. On examination, it could be noticed a large fibroelastic symmetric mass, asymptomatic, in the cervical region, not adhered to deep planes and with no signs of inflammation.CONCLUSION: The benign symmetric lipomatosis was rated by Enzi et al. in two types, the patient in this case was classified as type I, predominantly cervical lymphoma. The intake of alcohol consumed by the patient is strongly associated with the etiology of this disease, according to Enzi et al. The patient underwent a lipectomy with a two steps approach due to surgical invasion of vital structures. The patient was stable clinically, without complications, with good aesthetic results. The clinical case described had an exuberance of clinical manifestations, not consistent with laboratory parameters and symptoms described in the literature.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Os autores relatam dois casos da doença de Madelung, que consiste em depósitos simétricos de gordura localizados no pescoço, ombros e mediastino superior, envolvendo nervos e vasos. Recomenda-se o uso da tomografia computadorizada, a qual confirma a natureza lipóide da massa, útil no estadiamento pré-operatório e acompanhamento pós-cirúrgico


The authors report two cases of patients with Madelung's disease, a symmetric fat deposit in the neck and superior mediastinum that involves nerves and vessels. Computed tomography can reveal the fat contents of these masses and guide preoperative staging and post-surgical follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Extramedullary hematopoiesis occurring in multiple organs such as thorax, liver and both kidneys is an unusual condition. We report the CT findings of this condition with review of literature. The lesions consisted of intrathoracic paravertebral masses, focal intrahepatic mass and masses of both pelvocalyceal systems on CT scans.

ABSTRACT

La TAC representa en la actualidad el método de más alto rendimiento diagnóstico para evaluar la patología mediastínica, debido a la capacidad para diferenciar distintos tejidos, mientras que el análisis axial facilita la ubicación precisa de la condición en estudio, desapareciendo también el problema de la sobreproyección de imágenes. Las indicaciones abarcan una amplia gama de alteraciones, las cuales, en todo caso, provienen del exhaustivo análisis de la radiografía simple, pilar básico en el estudio desde el punto de vista de la imagen y del conocimiento completo de los antecedentes clínicos del enfermo. Si bien es cierto que el análisis por TAC del mediastino es relativamente fácil, existen una serie de situaciones normales que pueden llevar a una interpretación errónea de patología, y es fundamental por lo tanto, tener presente y familiarizarse con éstas condiciones
