ABSTRACT

Introducción. El tejido mamario accesorio es una anomalía congénita que se presenta en el 2-6 % de la población femenina. En este tejido se pueden desarrollar las mismas patologías que en la mama normal. El manejo curativo es la resección quirúrgica. El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar los resultados de la técnica de resección vía abierta de tejido mamario accesorio con dren vs sin dren. Métodos. Se realizó un estudio observacional tipo cohorte retrospectivo, teniendo en cuenta dos grupos de pacientes con tejido mamario accesorio: a uno de ellos se les realizó resección quirúrgica mediante técnica abierta con dren y al otro grupo sin dren. Además, se incluyó un brazo prospectivo donde se evaluó la calidad de vida y la satisfacción de las pacientes con el resultado posoperatorio mediante el uso de la herramienta Breast-Q. Resultados. Se recolectó la información de 82 pacientes, la mayoría mujeres; 22 se intervinieron con técnica con dren y 60 con técnica sin dren. 13,6 % de los pacientes presentaron complicaciones tempranas, siendo la infección de sitio operatorio la más frecuente (36,4 %). En general, las complicaciones fueron más comunes en el grupo con dren (40,9 % vs 3,4 %), con una diferencia estadísticamente significativa (p=0,000). La calidad de vida fue similar en ambos grupos. Conclusiones. Los pacientes a quienes se les realizó resección de mama supernumeraria y se dejó un sistema de drenaje en el lecho de disección presentaron más complicaciones posoperatorias que las pacientes a quienes no se les dejó dren


Introduction. Accessory breast tissue is a congenital anomaly that occurs in 2-6% of the female population. It can develop the same pathologies that in the normal breast. The curative management of this pathology is surgical resection. The objective of this study was to compare the results of the accessory breast tissue open resection technique with a drain vs without a drain. Methods. An observational retrospective cohort study was conducted considering two groups of patients with accessory breast tissue: one of them underwent surgical resection using an open technique with a drain and the other group without a drain. In addition, a prospective arm where the quality of life and satisfaction of the patients with the postoperative result was evaluated by the Breast-Q tool. Results. Eighty-two patients were included, most of them women; 22 were operated with open technique with drain and 60 without drain. 13.6% of patients presented early complications, with surgical site infection being the most frequent (36.4%) and, in general, complications were more common in the group with drain (40.9% vs 3.4%) with a statistically significant difference (p=0.000). Quality of life was similar in both groups.Conclusions. Patients who undergo supernumerary breast resection and leaving drainage in the dissection bed present more postoperative complications compared to those without drain

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: The axilla is the main communication channel connecting the upper limbs, the neck and chest. Stabilization of the internal structure is essential for upper limb and shoulder mobility. In this case, we observed and recorded the characteristics of the variation of the radial nerve as well as the intercalated ectopic muscle from latissimus dorsi muscle. The position relationship between both, was also particularly noted by us. In view of the presence of the variation we reported, related clinical research, surgery and disease diagnosis are expected to take this case into account.


La axila es el principal canal de comunicación que conecta los miembros superiores, el cuello y el tórax. La estabilización de la estructura interna es fundamental para la movilidad del miembro superior y del hombro. En este caso observamos y registramos las características de la variación del nervio radial así como del músculo ectópico intercalado del músculo latísimo del dorso. La relación de posición entre ambas también fue significativa en este estudio. En vista de la presencia de la variación que informamos, se espera que la investigación clínica relacionada con la cirugía y el diagnóstico de la enfermedad tengan en cuenta este caso.

ABSTRACT

The present study aimed to investigate the protective role of Shaofu Zhuyu Decoction(SFZY) against endometriosis fibrosis in mice, and decipher the underlying mechanism through the phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten(PTEN)/protein kinase B(Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR) pathway. Eighty-five BALB/c female mice were randomly assigned into a blank group, a model group, high-, medium, and low-dose SFZY(SFZY-H, SFZY-M, and SFZY-L, respectively) groups, and a gestrinone suspension(YT) group. The model of endometriosis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of uterine fragments. The mice in different groups were administrated with corresponding groups by gavage 14 days after modeling, and the blank group and model group with equal volume of distilled water by gavage. The treatment lasted for 14 days. The body weight, paw withdrawal latency caused by heat stimuli, and total weight of dissected ectopic focus were compared between different groups. The pathological changes of the ectopic tissue were observed via hematoxylin-eosin(HE) and Masson staining. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the mRNA levels of α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA) and collagen type Ⅰ(collagen-Ⅰ) in the ectopic tissue. The protein levels of PTEN, Akt, mTOR, p-Akt, and p-mTOR in the ectopic tissue were determined by Western blot. Compared with the blank group, the modeling first decreased and then increased the body weight of mice, increased the total weight of ectopic focus, and shortened the paw withdrawal latency. Compared with the model group, SFZY and YT increased the body weight, prolonged the paw withdrawal latency, and decreased the weight of ectopic focus. Furthermore, the drug administration, especially SFZY-H and YT(P<0.01), recovered the pathological and reduced the area of collagen deposition. Compared with the blank group, the modeling up-regulated the mRNA levels of α-SMA and collagen-Ⅰ in the ectopic focus, and such up-regulation was attenuated after drug intervention, especially in the SFZY-H and YT groups(P<0.05,P<0.01). Compared with the blank group, the modeling down-regulated the protein level of PTEN and up-regulated the protein levels of Akt, mTOR, p-Akt, and p-mTOR(P<0.01, P<0.001). Drug administration, especially SFZY-H and YT, restored such changes(P<0.01). SFZY may significantly attenuate the focal fibrosis in the mouse model of endometriosis by regulating the PTEN/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El tiroides ectópico es una alteración congénita infrecuente que presenta una prevalencia entre 1/100.000-1/300.000. En el 90% de los casos se encuentra en la línea media cervical, siendo los casos de tiroides ectópico cervical lateral muy infrecuentes. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 44 años que consultó por presentar una tumoración submandibular izquierda de más de seis meses de evolución. Las pruebas de imagen (ecografía, tomografía computarizada y gammagrafía) sugirieron un bocio ectópico multinodular; la punción aspiración con aguja fina (PAAF) informó de tejido tiroideo sin atipias (Bethesda II) y el estudio sanguíneo de hormonas tiroideas fue normal, orientando finalmente el caso como un bocio multinodular ectópico submandibular eutiroideo. Ante la ausencia de síntomas y signos sugerentes de malignidad, en conjunto con una PAAF con características de benignidad, se decidió realizar seguimiento. En el momento que presentó clínica por efecto masa se decidió realizar la exéresis de la lesión, que confirmó el diagnóstico de bocio multinodular ectópico. Los casos descritos en la literatura de bocio multinodular ectópico submandibular como único tejido tiroideo funcionante son excepcionales. El tiroides ectópico se debe considerar en el diagnóstico diferencial de una masa submandibular. Aunque actualmente no existe un consenso en relación con el manejo de dicha patología, el crecimiento de la masa puede contribuir a la decisión de una exéresis completa del tiroides ectópico, aun tratándose del único tejido tiroideo funcionante.


Abstract Ectopic thyroid is an uncommon congenital disorder with a prevalence between 1/100,000-1/300,000. In 90% of cases, it is placed in cervical midline, being the cases of lateral cervical ectopic thyroid very infrequent. We present the case of a 44-year-old female patient who had a left submandibular mass during more than six months. Imaging tests (ultrasound, computed tomography and scintigraphy) suggested a multinodular ectopic goiter; fine needle aspiration (FNA) reported thyroid tissue without atypia (Bethesda II) and the thyroid hormone blood tests were normal, finally orienting the case as a euthyroid submandibular ectopic multinodular goiter. In the absence of symptoms and signs suggestive of malignancy, together with an FNA with benign characteristics, it was decided to follow up. When the patient presented clinical symptoms due to mass effect, it was decided to perform excision of the lesion, which confirmed the diagnosis of ectopic multinodular goiter. There are very few cases described in the literature of submandibular ectopic multinodular goiter as the only functioning thyroid tissue. Ectopic thyroid should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a submandibular mass. Although there is currently no consensus on the management of this pathology, the growth of the mass may contribute to the decision of a complete excision of the ectopic thyroid, even if it is the only functioning thyroid tissue.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ectopic meningothelial hamartoma (EMH). Methods: Three cases of EMH diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2014 to December 2020 were enrolled. All cases were evaluated by clinical and imaging features, HE and immunohistochemical staining, and the relevant literature was reviewed. Results: There were one male and two female patients, aged 2, 67 and 19 years, respectively. Clinically, they presented as skin masses in the head and face region (two cases) and sacro-coccygeal region (one case). Grossly, the lesions ranged in size from 1.6 cm to 8.9 cm. Microscopically, the lesions were ill-defined, and located in the dermis and subcutis, and showed pseudovascular channels lined by monolayer of cuboidal to flattened epithelium with mild atypia, with variable cystic cavity formation. There was prominent interstitial fibrosis. Concentric, lamellated, onion skin-like arrangement with short spindle or ovoid cells and psammoma bodies were noted. Immunohistochemically, these cells were strongly positive for SSTR2, EMA, vimentin and progesterone receptor. Ki-67 positive index was low, approximately 1%. Conclusions: EMH is uncommon. Definitive diagnosis relies on histopathologic examination. The importance in recognizing the lesions is to differentiate from other more aggressive tumors.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: la heterotopia de mucosa gástrica del esófago proximal (HMGEP) es una entidad clínica poco entendida y probablemente subdiagnosticada, que consiste en la presencia de islas de mucosa gástrica ectópica en el esófago proximal. Caso clínico: presentamos el caso de un neonato que presenta de manera temprana estridor y distrés respiratorio secundario a mucosa redundante en la región poscricoidea, que prolapsa sobre la supraglotis y ocluye la luz de la vía aérea. El estudio histopatológico reporta HMGEP. Se realiza una terapia ablativa con láser, con lo cual la paciente se recupera paulatinamente. Metodología: se llevó a cabo una amplia búsqueda de la literatura de HMGEP en las bases de datos PubMed, SciELO, Mendeley y Elsevier, en idioma inglés y español, desde 1980 a 2021 y se incluyeron 18 artículos en total. Discusión: la HMGEP suele ser una entidad asintomática que en ocasiones genera síntomas faringolaríngeos, y de manera infrecuente puede asociarse con complicaciones como estenosis, úlceras, perforación esofágica e incluso obstrucción de la vía aérea como en el presente caso. Conclusiones: además de las diversas alteraciones en la vía aérea que pueden generar estridor y dificultad respiratoria en niños, debemos descartar causas gastroesofágicas subyacentes asociadas con estas manifestaciones, como la HMGEP.logos y expertos en radioterapia permite obtener buenos resultados quirúrgicos y clínicos en la inmensa mayoría de casos.


Introduction: Gastric mucosal heterotopia of the proximal esophagus (HMGEP) is a poorly understood and probably underdiagnosed clinical entity that consists of the presence of islands of ectopic gastric mucosa in the proximal esophagus. Clinical Case: In this article, we present the case of a newborn who started with early stridor and respiratory distress secondary to redundant mucosa in the postcricoid region that prolapsed over the supraglottis, occluding the airway lumen. The histopathological study reports HMGEP. Ablative laser therapy is performed with which the patient gradually recovers. Methodology: An extensive search of the HMGEP literature was conducted in PubMed, SciELO, Mendeley, and Elsevier data base; in English and Spanish, from 1980 to 2021, including a total of 18 articles. Discussion: HMGEP is usually an asymptomatic entity that sometimes causes pharyngolaryngeal symptoms and, infrequently, can be associated with complications such as stenosis, ulcers, esophageal perforation, and even airway obstruction, as in the present case. Conclusions: In addition to the various alterations in the airway that can generate stridor and respiratory distress in children, we must rule out underlying gastroesophageal causes associated with these manifestations, such as HMGEP.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: reportar el caso de una paciente con diagnóstico de tejido mamario ectópico en vulva, y realizar una revisión de la literatura acerca del diagnóstico, tratamiento y pronóstico de esta condición en esta localización. Materiales y métodos: paciente de 49 años consulta por masa vulvar dolorosa a un centro privado de nivel medio de complejidad ubicado en Bogotá, Colombia. Se realizó ecografía de la lesión y posteriormente escisión quirúrgica; la histopatología mostró tejido mamario ectópico sin malignidad. Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, LILACS y Scielo, con las palabras clave "Vulva", "Glándulas mamarias", "ectópico", "Vulva", "Breast" y "Ectopic", y se incluyeron reportes y series de caso de mujeres con tejido mamario en vulva confirmado por histopatología. Resultados: se identificaron 184 títulos, de los cuales 94 fueron finalmente incluidos para un total de 126 casos. El 57,9% eran tumores benignos, con un 95% en mujeres menores de 50 años; y el 42,06% eran tumores malignos, el 92 % en mujeres mayores de 50 años. El diagnóstico se realizó por clínica, con imágenes diagnósticas complementarias, marcadores tumorales e inmunohistoquímica en algunos casos. Se realizó escisión local en el 91% de los casos de patología benigna y 43% de patología maligna, siendo el método diagnóstico y terapéutico. Conclusión: el tejido mamario ectópico en vulva debe ser considerado como parte del diagnóstico diferencial de masas a nivel vulvar con diferente pronóstico en mujeres pre y posmenopáusicas. Se requieren más estudios para una mejor caracterización de la patología y definir el tratamiento ideal en términos de recaída y supervivencia.


Objective: To report the case of a patient diagnosed with ectopic mammary tissue in the vulva, and to conduct a literature review of the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of this condition in that location. Material and methods: A 49-year-old patient who presented with a painful vulvar mass to a private intermediate complexity center in Bogotá, Colombia. The lesion was assessed on ultrasound and then surgically excised; histopathology showed ectopic mammary tissue with absence of malignancy. A search was conducted in the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, LILACS and Scielo databases using the keywords "Vulva," "Breast" and "Ectopic." Case reports and case series of women with histopathology-confirmed mammary tissue in the vulva were included. Results: Overall, 184 titles were identified and, of these, 94 were ultimately included, for a total of 126 cases, with 57.9% being benign tumors, 95% in women under 50 years of age, and 42.06% being malignant tumors, 92% in women over 50 years of age. Diagnosis was made on the basis of the clinical findings, with ancillary diagnostic imaging, tumor markers and immunohistochemistry in some cases. Local excision was performed in 91% of cases with benign pathology and in 43% of cases with malignant pathology, with the diagnostic method being therapeutic. Conclusion: Ectopic mammary tissue in the vulva must be considered as part of the differential diagnosis of vulvar masses, prognosis being different in pre and postmenopausal women. Further studies are needed to enhance the characterization of this condition and define the ideal course of treatment in terms of relapse and survival.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El coristoma pancreático, o páncreas heterotópico, es una condición rara en gastroenterología. Esta entidad consiste en el hallazgo de tejido pancreático aberrante, en alguna zona del tracto gastrointestinal, sin continuidad vascular o anatómica con el páncreas normal, es poco reportado y presenta sintomatología variable. Presentamos el caso de un individuo de 46 años con dolor abdominal a quien se le encontró mediante exámenes invasivos un divertículo duodenal, el cual al examen histopatológico e inmunohistoquímico mostró un coristoma pancreático.


Abstract Pancreatic choristoma, also called heterotopic pancreas is a rare condition in gastroenterology. This entity consists of the presence of aberrant pancreatic tissue in some other area of the gastrointestinal tract without vascular or anatomical continuity with the normal pancreas; it has been seldomly reported and it could exhibit variable symptomathology. We herein report the case of a 46-year-old male, who presented with abdominal pain and was found, through invasive examinations to have a pancreatic choristoma within a duodenal diverticulum. The diagnosis was made using histopathology and immune-histochemistry testing.

ABSTRACT

A heterotopia pancreática é definida como a presença de tecido pancreático em localização topográfica anômala. Essa patologia pode acometer variadas estruturas da cavidade abdominal, mas raramente manifesta-se na vesícula biliar. Até o momento, menos de 40 casos de heterotopia pancreática em vesícula biliar foram relatados na literatura médica. Apresentamos um caso de uma mulher de 25 anos, que realizou uma colecistectomia videolaparoscópica por colelitíase, com exame anatomopatológico que identificou uma heterotopia pancreática. Apesar de rara, a doença deve ser considerada em pacientes com sintomatologia de doenças da via biliar e de doenças pancreáticas e sem diagnóstico após uma investigação de rotina, tendo em vista que o tecido pancreático ectópico está sujeito às mesmas alterações patológicas, manifestações clínicas e complicações encontradas no próprio pâncreas. (AU)


Heterotopic pancreas is defined as the presence of pancreatic tissue at an anomalous location. This condition may affect multiple structures in the abdominal cavity but rarely appears in the gallbladder. To date, fewer than 40 cases of heterotopic pancreas in the gallbladder have been reported in the medical literature. We present a case of a 25 year-old woman who underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis, with a pathology test that detected heterotopic pancreas. Despite its rarity, this disease must be considered in cases of corresponding symptoms without a diagnosis after a routine evaluation, considering that ectopic pancreatic tissue is exposed to the same pathological alterations, clinical manifestations, and complications found in the pancreas.

ABSTRACT

Ectopic liver tissue is a rare developmental abnormality. It is often asymptomatic and is commonly found incidentally, during surgery or autopsy. It has been reported in various abdominal and extra-abdominal sites, most often in the gall bladder. We are reporting an incidentally found mass in the left subdiafragmatic region, diagnosed as ectopic liver in abdominal CT and intraoperatively. We aim to assess the importance of imaging examinations in the differential diagnosis of intraabdominal masses ranging from benign to malignant entities and to point out that despite the low incidence of ectopic liver, it is necessary to be aware of this diagnostic possibility.


El tejido hepático ectópico es una rara anormalidad del desarrollo. A menudo es asintomático y generalmente se encuentra de manera incidental, durante la cirugía o la autopsia. Se ha informado en varios sitios abdominales y extraabdominales, con mayor frecuencia en la vesícula biliar. Reportamos el caso de una masa encontrada en la región subdiafragmática izquierda, diagnosticada como hígado ectópico en la TC abdominal e intraoperatoriamente. Nuestro objetivo fue evaluar la importancia de los exámenes por imágenes en el diagnóstico diferencial de masas intraabdominales que incluyen masas benignas como también malignas, y señalar que a pesar de la baja incidencia de hígado ectópico, es necesario tener en cuenta esta posibilidad en el diagnóstico.

ABSTRACT

Subepithelial lesions are generally an incidental diagnosis with an prevalence of 0.4%. These tumors represent a great diagnostic challenge, mainly when ruling out potentially malignant lesions, such as gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), lymphomas and carcinomas. Among the many differential diagnosis, the ectopic pancreas arises with an prevalence of 1-2% in general population. The first diagnostic approach is performed using upper digestive endoscopy, computed tomography and endosonography. This last one has a diagnostic performance of less than 50%, which increases to 90% when it is associated with a histopathological examination. There is no current consensus regarding the management and monitoring of these lesions. Based on the imaging and histological characteristics, the possibilities range from observation to endoscopic or surgical resection. In this context, we will present a clinical case of ectopic pancreas as an incidental finding, and afterwards the diagnostic and therapeutic breakdown of subepithelial lesions.


Las lesiones subepiteliales son pesquisadas generalmente de manera incidental, con una prevalencia de 0,4%. Estos tumores suponen un gran desafío diagnóstico, principalmente al momento de descartar lesiones potencialmente malignas, como el tumor estromal gastrointestinal (GIST), linfomas y carcinomas. Dentro de los posibles diagnósticos, surge el páncreas ectópico, con una prevalencia de hasta 1-2% en la población general. La primera aproximación diagnóstica se realiza mediante endoscopia digestiva alta, tomografía computarizada y la endosonografía, ésta última con un rendimiento diagnóstico menor del 50%, que aumenta hasta el 90% al asociar el examen histopatológico. No existe consenso actual respecto al manejo y seguimiento de estas lesiones, que según sus características imagenológicas e histológicas, va desde la observación hasta la resección endoscópica o quirúrgica. En este contexto, se presenta un caso clínico de páncreas ectópico como hallazgo incidental y el desglose diagnóstico y terapéutico de las lesiones subepiteliales.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To report an unusual case of oral hairy polyp (HP) and review the literature, providing epidemiological, clinical and histopathological information on this disease. Case description: A 12-year-old male patient was referred to a Stomatology department with a nodule in the posterior midline of the tongue. The patient did not know exactly when it arose or whether it had grown since then. Clinical exam revealed a bulky and mobile pedunculated mass lesion on the dorsum of the tongue, with a diameter of approximately 1 cm. The patient's mother reported no previous health problem. An excisional biopsy was performed, the surgical specimen was sent for anatomopathological analysis, and the findings were compatible with the diagnosis of HP. Comments: Hairy polyp is a rare lesion, especially in the oral region. The literature search revealed only 10 case reports of oral HP published between January 1999 and January 2019, and they revealed a predominance of the disease in female newborns. Two uncommon facts were presented in this case: the patient was male and diagnosis was made at 12 years old.


RESUMO Objetivo: Relatar um caso incomum de pólipo piloso (PP) oral e revisar a literatura para trazer informações epidemiológicas, clínicas e histopatológicas acerca da doença. Descrição do caso: Paciente do sexo masculino, 12 anos de idade, encaminhado ao Departamento de Estomatologia com nódulo na região posterior de linha média da língua. O paciente não soube relatar quando surgiu a lesão e se ela havia crescido desde então. O exame clínico revelou massa pedunculada, volumosa e móvel no dorso da língua, medindo aproximadamente 1,0 cm de diâmetro. A mãe do paciente relatou que ele nunca havia tido nenhum problema de saúde anterior. Foi realizada biópsia excisional e o material foi enviado para análise anatomopatológica, sendo os achados compatíveis com o diagnóstico de PP. Comentários: O pólipo piloso é uma lesão rara, especialmente na região oral. A pesquisa bibliográfica revelou apenas dez relatos de casos de PP oral, publicados entre janeiro de 1999 e janeiro de 2019, sendo observada predominância da doença em recém-nascidos do sexo feminino. Dois fatos incomuns ocorreram neste caso: tratava-se de um paciente do sexo masculino e o diagnóstico se deu aos 12 anos de idade.

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Presentamos un caso un hombre de 53 años con antecedentes de reflujo gastroesofágico y pirosis con varias visitas al servicio de urgencias por vómitos, con antecedentes de consumo crónico de alcohol. La TC sin y con contraste endovenoso mostró a nivel del píloro una lesion ovoidea de paredes gruesas con captación similar al tejido pancreático, con un gran componente quístico bien delimitado que condiciona una obstrucción intestinal. La ecografía confirma la presencia de una lesión quística con ecos móviles en su interior. Tras la realización de antrectomía, el estudio histológico revela un pseudoquiste pancreático sobre páncreas ectópico, siendo esta presentación muy infrecuente, con pocos casos descritos hasta la fecha. Conclusión: Los hallazgos clínico-radiológicos con TC y US de páncreas ectópico pueden orientar el diagnóstico, aunque no son concluyentes. El diagnóstico definitivo se realiza mediante estudio histológico.


Abstract: A 53 year-old male with a past history of chronic alcohol intake, presents with an intestinal obstruction. A CT scan shows an ovoid tumor in pylorus with a great cystic component, thick wall and delimited rim, causing gastric retention. Its walls have similar enhancing pattern as the pancreatic tissue. Ultrasound revealed the presence of a cystic tumor with mobile echoes inside. After antrectomy the histological study reports pancreatic pseudocyst hosted in ectopic pancreas. This is an unusual presentation and only a few cases have been reported. Conclusion: The clinical and radiographic findings of ectopic pancreas are non-specific. Definitive diagnostic requires histological study.

ABSTRACT

Osseous choristoma is a rare, benign proliferative osseous lesion, which is defined as the growth of normal tissue in an abnormal location. The etiopathogenesis for its formation is unknown, but various hypotheses have been proposed. Treatment of choice is en-bloc resection, and no recurrence has been reported. Here, we report the two cases of osseous choristoma, presented with a mass on the base of the tongue with/without globus symptom and were treated with surgical excision.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective To characterize the patterns of cell differentiation, proliferation, and tissue invasion in eutopic and ectopic endometrium of rabbits with induced endometriotic lesions via a well- known experimental model, 4 and 8 weeks after the endometrial implantation procedure. Methods Twenty-nine female New Zealand rabbits underwent laparotomy for endometriosis induction through the resection of one uterine horn, isolation of the endometrium, and fixation of tissue segment to the pelvic peritoneum. Two groups of animals (one with 14 animals, and the other with15) were sacrificed 4 and 8 weeks after endometriosis induction. The lesion was excised along with the opposite uterine horn for endometrial gland and stroma determination. Immunohistochemical reactions were performed in eutopic and ectopic endometrial tissues for analysis of the following markers: metalloprotease (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease (TIMP-2), which are involved in the invasive capacity of the endometrial tissue; and metallothionein (MT) and p63, which are involved in cell differentiation and proliferation. Results The intensity of the immunostaining for MMP9, TIMP-2, MT, and p63 was higher in ectopic endometria than in eutopic endometria. However, when the ectopic lesions were compared at 4 and 8 weeks, no significant difference was observed, with the exception of the marker p63, which was more evident after 8 weeks of evolution of the ectopic endometrial tissue. Conclusion Ectopic endometrial lesions seem to express greater power for cell differentiation and tissue invasion, compared with eutopic endometria, demonstrating a potentially invasive, progressive, and heterogeneous presentation of endometriosis.


Resumo Objetivo Caracterizar o padrão de diferenciação celular, proliferação e invasão tecidual em endométrio eutópico e ectópico de coelhas com lesões de endometriose induzidas por um modelo experimental 4 e 8 semanas após o procedimento de implantação endometrial. Métodos Vinte e nove coelhas fêmeas Nova Zelândia foram submetidas a laparotomia para indução de endometriose através da ressecção de um dos cornos uterinos, isolamento do endométrio e fixação do tecido no peritônio pélvico. Dois grupos de animais (14 animais em um grupo e 15 animais no outro) foram sacrificados 4 e 8 semanas após a indução da endometriose. A lesão foi excisada junto com o corno uterino contralateral para determinação da presença de glândulas e de estroma endometrial. Reações de imunohistoquímica foram realizadas no tecido endometrial eutópico e ectópico para análise dos seguintes marcadores: metaloprotease (MMP9) e inibidor tecidual da metaloprotease 2 (TIMP-2), os quais estão envolvidos na capacidade de invasão do tecido endometrial; e metalotioneina (MT) e p63, os quais estão envolvidos na diferenciação e proliferação celular. Resultados A intensidade da imunomarcação para MMP9, TIMP-2, MT e p63 foi mais alta nos endométrios ectópicos do que nos endométrios eutópicos. Contudo, quando as lesões foram comparadas entre 4 e 8 semanas, nenhuma diferença foi observada, com exceção do marcador p63, o qual foi mais evidente depois de 8 semanas de evolução do tecido endometrial ectópico. Conclusão Lesões endometriais ectópicas parecem expressar maior poder de diferenciação celular e de invasão tecidual comparadas com endométrios eutópicos, demonstrando o potencial de invasão, de progressão e de apresentação heterogênea da endometriose.

ABSTRACT

The occurrence of heterotopic tissue in the large intestine is unusual. The most common heterotopic tissue type described is gastric-type mucosa. On the other hand, heterotopic salivary gland tissue in the large intestine is extremely rare. To the best of the authors' knowledge, only five cases of heterotopic salivary gland in the large intestine have been reported, and all cases arose in the left colon. One out of five cases arose in the sigmoid colon, and the four other cases were found in the rectum-anal canal region. Endoscopically, they usually appeared as a polyp. The presentation of the patients was rectal bleeding or asymptomatic. Heterotopic salivary gland tissue in the colon has not been reported in Korea. This paper reports a case of heterotopic salivary gland tissue at the hepatic flexure of the colon and reviews the literature on similar cases. A 55-year-old male underwent large bowel endoscopy for colorectal carcinoma screening. The colonoscopy revealed five polyps. A sessile polyp at the hepatic flexure, 0.6 cm in size, was resected in a piecemeal manner. The histopathologic findings revealed a salivary gland with mixed mucinous-serous features and ducts. The other four polyps all were diagnosed as tubular adenoma with low-grade dysplasia.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT An asymptomatic 79-year-old woman, with incidental finding on abdominal ultrasound of a solid nodule in the tail of the pancreas. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a 12mm solid tumor. The suggested diagnosis was pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor. The pathological examination showed an intrapancreatic splenic tissue. This is a rare ectopic location of spleen tissue and it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic solid tumors.


RESUMO Mulher de 79 anos, com achado incidental em ultrassonografia de abdome de lesão sólida em cauda de pâncreas. Em ressonância magnética, foi confirmada lesão de 12mm. Foi aventada a hipótese diagnóstica de tumor neuroendócrino não secretor, sendo realizada pancreatectomia distal laparoscópica. Em estudo anatomopatológico, diagnosticou-se tecido esplênico, configurando baço acessório intrapancreático. Este tipo de manifestação topográfica de baço é rara, mas deve fazer parte dos diagnósticos diferenciais em tumores sólidos do pâncreas.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Caracterizar la mucosa gástrica heterotópica en duodeno en nuestro medio. Materiales y métodos: Se seleccionaron dos instituciones, los casos de mucosa gástrica heterotópica que cumplieran los criterios histológicos establecidos para el diagnóstico durante los años 2014-2015. Las láminas con el diagnóstico de mucosa gástrica heterotópica en duodeno fueron revisadas por 3 patólogos, se recolectó información clínica, endoscópica e histológica en cada caso. Resultados: Se encontraron 45 casos de mucosa gástrica heterotópica en duodeno, 91,1% se localizaron en bulbo duodenal y 73,2% se presentaron endoscópicamente como pólipos. En todos los casos se identificó células parietales como criterio para hacer el diagnóstico histopatológico, en ningún caso se identificó Helicobacter pylori ni displasia en la biopsia duodenal. Conclusiones: Nuestros datos confirman su naturaleza benigna. El diagnóstico de mucosa gástrica heterotópica, aunque infrecuente, debe tenerse en cuenta en el estudio de pólipos duodenales, siendo la identificación de células parietales en mucosa duodenal fundamental para el diagnóstico diferencial histológico especialmente con la metaplasia gástrica de duodenitis péptica


Objective: The aim of this study was characterized sin duodenum the heterotopic gastric mucosa. Materials and methods: The slides with the diagnosis of heterotopic gastric mucosa during 2014-2015, were reviewed, and clinical, histological and endoscopic data was to collected for every case. Results: 45 cases of heterotopic gastric mucosa in duodenum were found, 91.1% were located in duodenum bulb and 73.2%, presenting as polyps in 73.2% of cases. In all cases, parietal cell was identified as main criteria for the diagnosis. Neither Helicobacter pylori nor dysplasia were identified. Conclusions: Our data confirm its non neoplastic nature. Heterotopic gastric mucosa should be taken into account in diagnosis of duodenal polyps. Parietal cells identification in duodenal mucosa is essential in differential diagnosis with peptic duodenitis
