RESUMEN

Introducción: La presencia de una vena cava superior izquierda persistente, durante el implante de electrodos endocavitarios para la resincronización cardíaca, representa una anomalía poco habitual de gran relevancia, que puede presentarse de forma inesperada durante el abordaje venoso superior habitual. Planteando desafíos técnicos en su implante y dudas sobre su eficacia o seguridad a corto y largo plazo; existiendo aislados casos publicados. Caso clínico: Presentamos un caso complejo con esta inusual anomalía llevado a implante de este dispositivo de forma exitosa, con funcionamiento normal durante su seguimiento de 7 años, llevado posteriormente a cambio de generador. Conclusiones: La vena cava superior izquierda persistente es la anomalía del retorno venoso cardiaco más frecuente, aunque su prevalencia es baja, presenta una gran relevancia en el implante y posicionamiento de electrodos endocavitarios necesarios para la terapia de resincronización cardiaca. Existe una evidencia creciente sobre su factibilidad y seguridad a corto y largo plazo a pesar de sus dificultades técnicas asociadas.


Introduction: The presence of a persistent left superior vena cava, during the implantation of endocavitary electrodes for cardiac resynchronization, represents an unusual anomaly of great relevance, which can occur unexpectedly during the usual superior venous approach. It constitutes a technical challenge in your implant and doubts about its effectiveness or safety in the short and long term. There are isolated published cases. We present a complex case with this unusual anomaly that led to successful implantation of this device, with a normal functio during its 7-year follow-up It was followed by uneventul generator change. Conclusions: Persistent left superior vena cava is the most common cardiac venous return anomaly. Although its prevalence is low, it is of great relevance in the implantation and positioning of endocavitary electrodes necessary for cardiac resynchronization therapy. There is growing evidence about its feasibility and safety in the short and long term despite.

RESUMEN

Introducción: el aneurisma gigante de aorta es una entidad poco frecuente y puede cursar asintomático por años o con manifestaciones inespecíficas. El diagnóstico es imagenológico, siendo la tomografía contrastada y la angiografía por resonancia magnética los procedimientos de elección. Tiene alta mortalidad con pronóstico variable. Reporte de caso: se presenta el caso de un aneurisma gigante de aorta manifestado como síndrome de vena cava superior en una mujer de 88 años con múltiples patologías de base, quien por las características del aneurisma y sus antecedentes patológicos no fue candidata a intervención quirúrgica. Discusión: es relevante considerar esta patología en el abordaje de pacientes con síndrome de vena cava superior, para definir la posibilidad de intervención quirúrgica y mejorar el pronóstico de los pacientes. Conclusión: el aneurisma gigante de la aorta es una patología poco frecuente con clínica inespecífica, cuyo tratamiento por lo general es quirúrgico, con alta morbimortalidad a largo plazo si el diagnóstico es tardío.


Introduction: giant aortic aneurysm (AA) is a rare condition which may be asymptomatic for years or present with non-specific symptoms. Diagnosis is by imaging tests such as contrast tomography and magnetic resonance angiography of the aorta, which are considered first line for definitive diagnosis. It carries high mortality and variable prognosis. Case: herein we present a case of giant aortic aneurysm revealed by superior vena cava syndrome in an 88-year-old female patient with multiple underlying pathologies. She was not a candidate for AA surgical repair due to the features of the aneurysm and her past medical history. Discussion: it is relevant to consider AA in the approach to the patient with superior vena cava syndrome, to define treatment by surgical repair for improving prognosis. Conclusion: giant aortic aneurysm is a rare condition with non-specific features, usually treated surgically, carrying high long-term morbidity and mortality if diagnosis is delayed.

RESUMEN

Resumen Se presenta el caso de un paciente con enferme dad tromboembólica venosa y contraindicación de anticoagulación en el cual se halló incidentalmente una duplicación de vena cava inferior, situación que determinó la necesidad del implante de dos filtros de protección embólica. Si bien esta anomalía vascular es de escasa presentación, es importante tener presente esta posibilidad para asegurarse de brindar una co rrecta protección a la hora del implante de filtros de vena cava inferior.


Abstract We present the case of a patient with venous throm boembolic disease and contraindication to anticoagu lation, where the incidental finding of a duplication of the inferior vena cava was made. This observation determined the need to implant two embolic protection filters. Although this vascular anomaly is rarely present, it is important to keep this possibility in mind to ensure that proper protection is provided when inferior vena cava filters are implanted.

RESUMEN

Resumen: La malposición de los catéteres venosos centrales se asocia a importantes riesgos, a menudo infraestimados. Aunque se han descrito algunos factores que pueden favorecer la malposición, generalmente su causa no llega a diagnosticarse y parece ser de origen multifactorial. Presentamos dos casos de malposición de catéteres venosos centrales motivadas por causas anatómicas inusuales, diagnosticadas en el perioperatorio. En el primer caso, se diagnostica una agenesia de vena cava superior en el transcurso de una sustitución mitral por esternotomía, que lógicamente se asocia con una malposición de la vía central insertada. La utilización de catéteres y dispositivos a través de venas yugulares y subclavias en pacientes con esta infrecuente patología implica importantes limitaciones y complicaciones potenciales graves. En el segundo caso, la existencia de un bocio no diagnosticado provoca la malposición bilateral y simultánea de dos catéteres venosos canalizados, en el contexto de una situación de emergencia, en ambas venas yugulares internas.


Abstract: Malposition of central venous catheters is associated with important and underestimated risks. Although some factors have been related with malposition, its cause is generally not diagnosed, and it seems to have multifactorial origin. We present two cases of central venous catheter malposition due to unusual anatomical causes, diagnosed in the perioperative period. In the first case, superior vena cava agenesis was diagnosed during mitral replacement by sternotomy, which was logically associated with malposition of the inserted central line. The use of catheters and devices through jugular and subclavian veins in patients with this infrequent pathology is associated with important limitations and serious potential complications. In the second case, an undiagnosed goiter causes bilateral and simultaneous malpositioning of two inserted central venous catheters, in the context of an emergency situation, in both internal jugular veins.

RESUMEN

A hipoplasia da veia cava inferior é uma patologia rara que integra o conjunto de anomalias do desenvolvimento da veia cava inferior. A sua incidência situa-se entre 0,3%-0,5% na população saudável e 5% nos adultos jovens sem fatores de risco para trombose venosa profunda, sendo considerada um importante fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de trombose dos membros inferiores. O principal objetivo deste trabalho é reportar a conduta obstétrica de um caso clínico de uma grávida diagnosticada com hipoplasia da veia cava inferior, prévia à gravidez. Trata-se de um caso clínico, de uma grávida, primigesta, com 37 anos, com hipoplasia da veia cava inferior e heterozigotia para o gene MTHFR677 diagnosticadas, na sequência de uma trombose venosa bilateral dos membros inferiores e do segmento infrarrenal da veia cava inferior. A gravidez foi seguida em consulta hospitalar na nossa instituição, tendo a grávida sido medicada com enoxaparina em dose profilática e ácido acetilsalicílico, com um período pré natal que decorreu sem intercorrências. Às 37 semanas e 6 dias de gestação, deu entrada no Serviço de Urgência de Obstetrícia por rotura prematura de membranas. Intraparto foram utilizadas meias de compressão pneumática intermitente, tendo o parto ocorrido às 38 semanas de gestação por via vaginal (parto eutócico), do qual nasceu um recém-nascido do sexo feminino, com 2620g e índice de Apgar 9/10/10. O presente caso clínico demonstra que em situações de hipoplasia da veia cava inferior com um seguimento obstétrico adequado é possível a realização de um parto vaginal, possibilitando um desfecho obstétrico favorável (AU).


Hypoplasia of the inferior vena cava is a rare condition that belongs to the group of developmental anomalies of the inferior vena cava. It has an incidence between 0.3% and 0.5% in the healthy population and 5% in young adults without risk factors for deep venous thrombosis, being considered an important risk factor for the development of lower limb thrombosis. This study aims to report the obstetric conduct of a clinical case of a pregnant woman diagnosed with hypoplasia of the inferior vena cava prior to pregnancy. This is a clinical case of a pregnant woman, primigravid 37 years old, with hypoplasia of the inferior vena cava and heterozygosity for MTHFR677, diagnosed following a bilateral venous thrombosis of the lower limbs and the infrarenal segment of the inferior vena cava. The pregnancy was followed up in our institution. The pregnant woman was medicated with a prophylatic dose of low molecular weight heparin and acetylsalicylic acid with an uneventful prenatal period. At 37 weeks and 6 days of gestation, she was admitted to the Obstetrics Emergency Service due to premature rupture of membranes. Intermittent pneumatic compression sockings were used intrapartum, and at 38 weeks of gestation, a female newborn was vaginally delivered (eutocic delivery) with 2620g and an Apgar score of 9/10/10. The present clinical case demonstrates that in situations of hypoplasia of the inferior vena cava with an adequate obstetric follow-up, it is possible to perform a vaginal delivery, enabling a favourable obstetric outcome (AU).

RESUMEN

Introducción: La baja incidencia del leiomiosarcoma de la vena cava inferior dificulta tanto la estandarización del diagnóstico como el tratamiento. Objetivo: Presentar el manejo realizado en nuestro centro de un paciente que desarrolló un leiomiosarcoma de vena cava inferior, una patología de baja incidencia y que las posibilidades de realizar un rescate quirúrgico son muy bajas. Resultados: Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 54 años con una tumoración sólida en porción infrarrenal y yuxtarrenal de vena cava inferior de 71 × 76 × 117 mm compatible con leiomiosarcoma de vena cava, con infiltración de uréter derecho que ocasiona uropatía obstructiva derecha grado I-II sin alteración de la función renal, que fue resecada y reconstruida mediante prótesis sin complicaciones. Discusión: Se discute la fisiopatología, el diagnóstico y manejo en relación con el caso presentado. Conclusión: la baja incidencia de estos tumores dificulta tanto la estandarización del diagnóstico como del tratamiento, aunque la cirugía sigue siendo el tratamiento de elección.


Introduction: The low incidence of leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava hinders both the standardization of diagnosis and treatment. Objective: To present the management carried out in our center of a patient who developed an inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma, a low incidence pathology with uncertain surgical rescue. Results: 54-year-old patient with a solid tumor in the infrarenal and juxtarenal portions of the inferior vena cava of 71 × 76 × 117 mm compatible with leiomyosarcoma of the vena cava, with infiltration of the right ureter that causes right obstructive uropathy grade I-II without kidney function changes; tumour was resected and continuity reconstructed with a prosthesis without complications. Discussion: The pathophysiology, diagnosis and management are commented. Conclusion: the low incidence of these lesions makes it difficult to standardize both diagnosis and treatment, although surgery remains the treatment of choice.

RESUMEN

Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) presents with inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombus in 10%�% cases and surgical management forms the mainstay of the treatment. The objective of this study is to assess the outcomes of the patients undergoing radical nephrectomy with IVC thrombectomy. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients undergoing open radical nephrectomy with IVC thrombectomy between 2006 till 2018 was done. Results: A total of 56 patients were included. The mean (眘tandard deviation) age was 57.1 (�.2) years. The number of patients with levels I, II, III, and IV thrombus were 4, 29,10, and 13, respectively. The mean blood loss was 1851.8 mL, and the mean operative time was 303.3 minutes. Overall, the complication rate was 51.7%, while the perioperative mortality rate was 8.9%. The mean duration of hospital stay was 10.6 � 6.4 days. The majority of the patients had clear cell carcinoma (87.5%). There was a significant association between grade and stage of thrombus (P = 0.011). Using Kaplan朚eier survival analysis, the median overall survival (OS) was 75 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 43.5�6.5) months, and the median recurrence-free survival (RFS) was 48 (95% CI = 33.1�.3) months. Age (P = 0.03), presence of systemic symptoms (P = 0.01), radiological size (P = 0.04), histopathological grade (P = 0.01), level of thrombus (P = 0.04), and invasion of thrombus into IVC wall (P = 0.01) were found to be significant predictors of OS. Conclusion: The management of RCC with IVC thrombus poses a major surgical challenge. Experience of a center along with high-volume and multidisciplinary facility particularly cardiothoracic facility provides better perioperative outcome. Though surgically challenging, it offers good overall-survival and recurrence-free survival

RESUMEN

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the application value of laparoscopic ultrasound (LU) in retroperitoneal radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma with Type II inferior vena cava tumor thrombectomy (RRN-RCC-TII-IVCTT). Methods: The clinical data (operative time, length of tumor thrombus, tumor length, intraoperative bleeding, clinical stage, histological type, residual tumor tissue, and postoperative follow-up) of 6 patients who underwent LU-guided RRN-RCC-TII-IVCTT were retrospectively analyzed, and the intraoperative experience of LU was also summarized. Results: All 6 patients recovered well with liver and kidney functions returning to normal, and no tumor recurrence, metastasis, or vena cava tumor thrombus. Conclusions: LU-guided RRN-RCC-TII-IVCTT is a feasible treatment option, which locates the tumor accurately by retroperitoneal approach and provides the additional benefit of reduced intraoperative bleeding and shortened operative time, also achieving the much sought-after goal of precision.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT The presence of persistent left superior vena cava to the left atrium connection without an innominate vein may give rise to technical challenges during intracardiac repair. In this report, the end-to-side anastomosis technique of the persistent left superior vena cava to the right superior vena cava is discussed in a patient with tetralogy of Fallot associated with persistent left superior vena cava draining directly into the left atrium. A successful end-to-side anastomosis between the persistent left superior vena cava and the right superior vena cava was performed and short-term anastomosis patency was documented via angiography.

RESUMEN

A comunicação interatrial do tipo seio venoso superior geralmente acompanha-se de uma conexão venosa anômala de veia ou veias pulmonares superiores ou médias direitas, que drenam diretamente na veia cava superior ou, ainda, na junção cavoatrial. Relatamos o caso de uma paciente do sexo feminino, de 62 anos, com diagnóstico de comunicação interatrial do tipo seio venoso, com sobrecarga das câmaras direitas, para quem foi planejado o procedimento de oclusão percutânea do defeito por meio da realização prévia de tomografia cardiovascular e, sequencialmente, estudo anatômico tridimensional, com o software de acesso público 3D Slicer. Além disso, foi realizada a impressão do modelo em resina para inspeção e simulação de implante de um stent. A paciente foi tratada de maneira percutânea com um stent Chetham-Platinum coberto de 60mm de extensão, com oclusão total do defeito, ausência de shunts residuais e direcionamento do fluxo da veia pulmonar superior direita para o átrio esquerdo por comunicação posterior entre os átrios, condição essencial para a realização desse tipo de procedimento. O planejamento do procedimento de oclusão percutânea da comunicação interatrial do tipo seio venoso passa por avaliação criteriosa dos exames de imagem. A impressão de modelos virtuais ou físicos, derivados da angiotomografia cardíaca, é fundamental para estudo detalhado do defeito e das estruturas anatômicas associadas, minimizando a ocorrência de complicações.


A superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect is usually accompanied by an anomalous venous connection to a right superior or middle pulmonary vein or veins, draining directly into the superior vena cava or even into the cavoatrial junction. This is a case report of a 62-year-old female patient, diagnosed with a sinus venosus atrial septal defect, with overload of the right chambers, for whom a percutaneous occlusion procedure was planned, using a previous cardiovascular tomography and, sequentially, a three-dimensional anatomical study, with the publicly available software 3D Slicer. In addition, a resin model was printed for inspection and simulation of a stent implantation. The patient was treated percutaneously with a 60-mm covered Chetham-Platinum stent, with total occlusion of the defect, absence of residual shunts, and draining flow from the right superior pulmonary vein to the left atrium, through a posterior communication between the atria, a sine qua non prerequisite to perform this type of procedure. Planning of the percutaneous occlusion procedure of the sinus venosus atrial septal defect involves careful evaluation of imaging tests. The printing of virtual or physical models, derived from computed tomography angiography of the heart, is essential for a detailed study of the defect and associated anatomical structures, minimizing the occurrence of complications.

RESUMEN

Resumen: Introducción: la persistencia de la vena cava superior izquierda (PVCSI) tiene una prevalencia de 0.21% en la población general. Presentación del caso: masculino de 67 años de edad diagnosticado con bloqueo auriculoventricular (AV) de tercer grado y que requirió colocación de marcapasos; sin embargo, debido a la ausencia de la vena cava superior derecha, corroborado por angiotomografía, se colocó marcapasos definitivo a través de la vena cava superior izquierda persistente. Conclusión: la persistencia de la vena cava superior izquierda (PVCSI) es la anomalía venosa torácica más común. Puede causar una serie de síntomas clínicamente significativos, incluso en un corazón con anatomía normal. La colocación de marcapasos dificulta la fijación del electrodo debido al recorrido tortuoso que genera.


Abstract: Introduction: the persistence of the left superior vena cava (PLSVC) has a prevalence of 0.21% in the general population. Case presentation: 67-year-old male diagnosed with third-degree AV block, requiring pacemaker placement. However, due to the absence of a right superior vena cava, corroborated by CT angiography, a definitive pacemaker was placed through a persistent left superior vena cava. Conclusion: the persistence of the left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most common thoracic venous anomaly. It can cause a number of clinically significant symptoms, even in a heart with normal anatomy. Pacemaker placement makes electrode fixation difficult due to tortuous travel.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Introduction: This study summarizes the clinical data of patients who developed sternotomy hemorrhage during redo aortic surgery and analyzes the clinical experience of using hypothermic circulatory arrest. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patients who developed sternotomy hemorrhage during redo aortic surgery from May 2018 to August 2021. General anesthesia with single-lumen tracheal intubation was used. Femoral artery, vein, and superior vena cava cannulation were used if cardiopulmonary bypass was required according to the situation, and right superior vein or apical cannulation was selected for left heart drainage. Results: A total of 11 patients were enrolled in this study, comprising nine males and two females, with an average age of 44.3±16.7 years. All cases were successfully completed without cerebrovascular complications or paraplegia. Two patients died during hospitalization, two patients died during the follow-up after discharge, and the remaining patients are recovering well. Conclusion: The femoral-femoral bypass with hypothermic circulatory arrest technique is a safe and reliable method to use in cases of sternotomy hemorrhage during redo aortic surgery.

RESUMEN

La colocación de catéteres ureterales doble-J es uno de los procedimientos más realizados en Urología, con bajas tasas de complicaciones graves. No obstante, pueden ocurrir y requieren de una identificación y tratamiento precoz. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 73 años intervenido de una prostatectomía radical, al que se le coloca un catéter doble-J por sospecha de lesión ureteral durante la intervención, con inestabilidad hemodinámica en el postoperatorio inmediato secundaria a la migración del catéter a la vena cava inferior


Double-J ureteral catheter placement is one of the most commonly performed procedures in Urology, with low rates of severe complications. Nevertheless, they can occur and require early identification and treatment. We present the case of a 73-year-old man who underwent radical prostatectomy and placement of a double-J catheter due to suspected ureteral injury during the surgery, with hemodynamic instability in the immediate postoperative period secondary to intracaval migration of the catheter.

RESUMEN

El leiomiosarcoma primario de vena cava es una neoplasia poco frecuente originada a nivel de las células musculares lisas de la túnica media. Representa el 2% de todos los leiomiosarcomas y el 60% de los tumores de vena cava. Presentamos el caso clínico de una paciente de 64 años que consulta por dolor lumbar derecho. La tomografía computada evidencia una gran masa retroperitoneal que engloba la vena cava inferior y contacta con el riñón derecho; el estudio histopatológico de la biopsia certifica un leiomiosarcoma. Se realiza tratamiento quirúrgico mediante resección tumoral con vena cava inferior e interposición de prótesis sintética y nefrectomía derecha. El estudio anatomopatológico de la pieza certifica un leiomiosarcoma de alto grado sin compromiso de la cápsula renal con bordes de resección libres. La resección radical con márgenes negativos actualmente ofrece la mejor tasa de supervivencia. Aún se encuentra en discusión la indicación de la anticoagulación en pacientes con colocación de prótesis.


Primary leiomyosarcoma of the vena cava is a very rare neoplasm that originates from the smooth muscle cells of the tunica media. It represents 2% of all the leiomyosarcomas and 60% of the vena cava tumors. We report a case of 64-year-old patient consulting for a lower right back pain. The computed tomography shows a large retroperitoneal mass which encompasses the inferior vena cava and involves of right kidney. The surgical treatment of tumor resection is performed with right nephrectomy and interposition of Dacron prosthesis. The anatomopathological study shows a high-grade leiomyosarcoma, not compromising the renal capsule, with resection free. Radical resection with negative margins currently offers the best survival rate. Anticoagulation treatment for patients with prosthesis placement is still under discussion.


O leiomiossarcoma primário da veia cava é uma neoplasia rara originada das células musculares lisas da túnica média. Representa 2% de todos os leiomiossarcomas e 60% dos tumores de veia cava. Apresentamos o caso clínico de um doente de 64 anos que consultou por lombalgia direita. A tomografia computadorizada revelou grande massa retroperitoneal que envolvia a veia cava inferior e contatava o rim direito; o estudo citológico da biópsia revelou um leiomiossarcoma. O tratamento cirúrgico foi realizado por excisão tumoral e de veia cava inferior com interposição de prótese sintética e nefrectomia direita. O diagnóstico anatomopatológico foi leiomiossarcoma de alto grau sem envolvimento da cápsula renal com bordas de ressecção livres de patologia. A ressecção radical com margens negativas atualmente oferece a melhor taxa de sobrevida. A indicaçãode anticoagulação em pacientes com colocação de prótese ainda está em discussão.

RESUMEN

Resumo O leiomiossarcoma de veia cava inferior (LVCI) é um raro tumor maligno mesenquimal. Seu tratamento cirúrgico é um desafio, pois necessita combinar margens cirúrgicas livres com reconstrução vascular, usando prótese ou enxerto autólogo, sutura primária ou ligadura simples sem reconstrução da veia. A ligadura é possível graças ao lento crescimento do tumor, permitindo o desenvolvimento de circulação venosa colateral. Apresentamos um caso de LVCI tratado por ressecção radical sem reconstrução vascular. Paciente feminina, 48 anos, com dor abdominal em hipocôndrio direito, astenia e sintomas dispépticos pós-prandiais. Tomografia de abdome revelou massa de formação expansiva localizada no segmento infra-hepático da veia cava inferior com redução da luz do vaso. Na cirurgia, o clampeamento da veia não indicou repercussões hemodinâmicas, sugerindo formação de circulação colateral suficiente. Decidiu-se pela ressecção radical em toda a porção da veia cava retro-hepática e ligadura da veia cava sem reconstrução vascular. A paciente evoluiu sem intercorrências.


Abstract Inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma (IVCL) is a rare malignant mesenchymal tumor. Surgical treatment is a challenge because it must combine free surgical margins with vascular reconstruction, using prosthetic or autologous grafts, primary suture, or simple ligation without vein reconstruction. The ligation option is possible thanks to the slow growth of the tumor, allowing collateral venous circulation to develop. We present a case of an IVCL treated with radical resection without vascular reconstruction. The patient was a 48-year-old female with abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant, asthenia, and postprandial dyspeptic symptoms. Abdominal tomography revealed a mass with an expansive formation located in the infrahepatic segment of the inferior vena cava and reduced vessel lumen. During surgery, vein clamping did not provoke hemodynamic repercussions, suggesting sufficient collateral circulation formation. It was decided to perform a radical resection of the entire portion of the retrohepatic vena cava and ligate the vena cava without vascular reconstruction. The patient recovered without complications.

RESUMEN

Abstract Inferior vena cava agenesis is a rare condition and is often misdiagnosed. This anomaly is asymptomatic in the majority of cases and is usually diagnosed during imaging tests carried out for other purposes. The most frequent manifestation is deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in lower limbs and anticoagulation therapy is the most frequent treatment option. Other techniques such as thrombolysis and venous bypass are also described. We report two cases diagnosed at our institution during the last year, both of which presented with an episode of DVT. We opted for indefinite anticoagulation therapy and both patients remain asymptomatic, after 1 year of surveillance in the first case and 6 months in the second, with no new episodes of DVT. Although it is not a life-threatening anomaly, it is important to make an appropriate diagnosis and provide treatment to improve the symptoms and quality of life of these patients.


Resumo A agenesia da veia cava inferior é uma condição rara e, muitas vezes, mal diagnosticada. Essa anomalia é, na maioria dos casos, assintomática, sendo geralmente diagnosticada durante exames de imagem realizados com outras finalidades. A manifestação mais comum é trombose venosa profunda (TVP) em membros inferiores, e a terapia anticoagulante é a opção de tratamento mais frequente, embora outras técnicas, como trombólise e derivações venosas, também tenham sido descritas. Relatamos dois casos diagnosticados na nossa Instituição no último ano, ambos com episódio de TVP. O tratamento consistiu em anticoagulação por tempo indeterminado e, após 1 ano de acompanhamento no primeiro caso e 6 meses no segundo, ambos os pacientes permanecem assintomáticos, sem novos episódios de TVP. Embora não seja uma anomalia com risco de vida, é importante realizar diagnóstico e tratamento adequados para melhorar os sintomas e a qualidade de vida desses pacientes.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT Recurrent pericardial effusion is commonly encountered in neoplastic and infective disorders. Intervention is compulsory in patients with unstable hemodynamics and tamponading effusion. Surgical options include: pericardiocentesis, subxiphoid pericardiostomy, and pericardial window. The latter has proved to have lower incidence of recurrence; however, the technique has been continuously refined to improve the recurrence-free survival and decrease postoperative morbidity. We herein present a novel simple modification to minimize recurrence by anchoring the free edges of pericardial fenestration overlying the superior vena cava and right atrium to the chest wall. Follow-up showed no recurrence compared to 3.5% in the conventional procedure.

RESUMEN

One case with ascites and lower limb edema as the initial manifestations was reported.The echocardiography revealed inferior vena cava and right atrial occupation,which combined with increased alpha fetoprotein and imaging examination,suggested liver malignant tumor combined with tumor thrombus of inferior vena cava and right atrium.After targeted therapy combined with immunotherapy,the tumor shrank and alpha fetoprotein decreased significantly,suggesting that the treatment was effective.The median survival time of the patient was 3 months.This patient had a clear history of cirrhosis due to hepatitis B and was clinically diagnosed with advanced liver cancer,which suggested the importance of early liver cancer screening.
