Invaginación intestinal en el adulto secundaria a pólipo mesenquimatoso. Presentación de un caso / Intestinal invagination in adults secondary to mesenchymal polyp. Case presentation

RESUMEN Fundamento: La invaginación intestinal como causa de dolor abdominal es un motivo infrecuente de consulta en la edad adulta. Una lesión orgánica es la causante en el 90 % de los casos. Pueden ser lesiones malignas o benignas, y entre estas últimas se mencionan los lipomas de intestino delgado. Objetivo: Presentar el caso de una paciente con invaginación intestinal secundaria a pólipo mesenquimatoso. Presentación del caso: Paciente femenina de 47 años de edad, con antecedentes de dolor abdominal recurrente hacia fosa ilíaca derecha y cambios intermitentes en el hábito intestinal. En los estudios de imagen realizados se le diagnosticó una invaginación de intestino delgado, la cual se corroboró en el acto quirúrgico y mediante anatomía patológica que informó un pólipo mesenquimatoso (fibrolipoma) como causante. Conclusiones: La invaginación intestinal, aunque infrecuente, puede ser la forma de presentación de dolor abdominal recurrente en el adulto.

ABSTRACT Background: Intestinal invagination as a cause of abdominal pain is an infrequent reason for consultation in adulthood. An organic injury is the cause in 90 % of cases. They can be malignant or benign lesions, and among the latter, lipomas of the small intestine are mentioned. Objective: To present the case of a patient with intestinal invagination secondary to a mesenchymal polyp. Case presentation: A 47-year-old female patient with a history of recurrent abdominal pain towards the right iliac fossa and intermittent changes in bowel habit. In the imaging studies, an invagination of the small intestine was diagnosed which was corroborated in the surgical act and by pathological anatomy that reported a mesenchymal polyp (fibrolipoma) as the cause. Conclusion: Intestinal invagination, although infrequent, may be the form of presentation of recurrent abdominal pain in adults.

Linfoma de células T/NK extranasal primario en íleon / Natural Killer/T cell primary extranasal ileum lymphoma

RESUMEN El linfoma extranodal de células T/NK extranasal (NKTL) primario del tracto gastrointestinal es poco frecuente y tiene carácter agresivo. Presentamos el caso de un paciente inmunocompetente de 51 años que ingresa por dolor abdominal de dos meses de evolución. En la colonoscopía, se hallaron ulceraciones ileales, por lo que se le realizaron estudios para descartar enfermedad de Crohn y tuberculosis intestinal, posteriormente presentó obstrucción intestinal. En la laparotomía exploratoria, se encontró un conglomerado ganglionar en mesenterio. La anatomía patológica confirmó el diagnóstico de NKTL primario en íleon. Se inició quimioterapia y el paciente pidió alta voluntaria dada su precaria condición. Dos meses después del alta el paciente fallece. Este linfoma ha sido reportado principalmente en Asia y posiblemente sea el primer caso reportado en Perú. Tiene un pronóstico funesto con una supervivencia global de ocho meses. Por ello, es necesario un diagnóstico precoz e iniciar la terapia oportunamente.

ABSTRACT Primary extranodal Natural Killer / T cell lymphoma (NKTL) on gastrointestinal tract is an uncommon and aggressive neoplasm. We present the case of a 51-year-old immunocompetent patient with a 2-month history of abdominal pain. Colonoscopy findings showed ileal ulcerations, so studies were carried out to rule out Crohn's disease and intestinal tuberculosis. Later, he developed intestinal obstruction. Exploratory laparotomy found a nodal conglomerate in the mesentery. Anatomical pathology confirmed the diagnosis of primary NKTL on the ileum. Chemotherapy was initiated but the patient asked for voluntary discharge because of his precarious condition. Two months after discharge the patient died. This lymphoma has been reported mainly in Asia and is possibly the first case in Peru. It has a dismal prognosis with overall survival of 8 months. Therefore, it is necessary to get an early diagnosis and begin therapy in a timely manner.

Ileítis como presentación de linfoma en síndrome de Wiskott-Aldrich / Ileitis as presentation of lymphoma in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome

El síndrome de Wiskott-Aldrich (SWA) es un raro síndrome de inmunodeficiencia primaria ligado al cromosoma X que se asocia con aumento de incidencia de infecciones, trastornos autoinmunes y neoplasias. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 41 años con diagnóstico de síndrome de Wiskott-Aldrich y cuadro de ileítis como forma de presentación de un síndrome linfoproliferativo. La ileítis, en el contexto del paciente, representa un problema clínico dado el gran número de diagnósticos diferenciales (enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal, infecciones, neoplasias y enfermedades linfoproliferativas) por lo que suele requerir diagnóstico anatomopatológico y consideraciones particulares respecto al posterior tratamiento específico.

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is a rare X chromosome-linked primary immunodeficiency syndrome associated with an increased incidence of infections, autoimmune disorders and neoplasms. We present the case of a 41-year-old man with a diagnosis of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome with ileitis as a form of presentation of a lymphoproliferative syndrome. The ileitis, in the context of the patient, represents a clinical challenge given the large number of differential diagnoses (inflammatory bowel disease, infections, neoplasms and lymphoproliferative diseases), so it usually requires anatomopathological diagnosis and particular considerations regarding the subsequent specific treatment.

Cistoadenoma mucinoso de la válvula ileocecal: tumoración intestinal infrecuente en un niño de 1 año. Reporte de caso / Mucinous cystadenoma of the ileocecal valve. Uncommon intestinal tumor in a oneyear-old boy. Case report

RESUMEN El cistoadenoma mucinoso se encuentra usualmente en el ovario, páncreas y el apéndice, pero su presentación en el intestino es extremadamente rara. En este reporte de caso, presentamos a un niño con obstrucción parcial intestinal debido a un cistoadenoma mucinoso en la válvula ileocecal. En la cirugía se retiró el íleo terminal, válvula ileocecal, ciego y apéndice, seguido de anastomosis ileocecal. El paciente evolucionó favorablemente en el postoperatorio y se recuperó sin contratiempos. A nuestro entender, este es el primer reporte de presentación de este tumor en dicha localización.

ABSTRACT Mucinous cystadenoma is usually found in the ovary, pancreas and appendix but its presentation in the intestine is extremely rare. In this case report we present an infant with partial intestinal occlusion due to a mucinous cystadenoma of the ileocecal valve. We performed an excision of the terminal ileum, ileocecal valve, cecum and appendix, followed by ileocolic anastomosis. The patient did well after the procedure and recovered uneventfully. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of this tumor in this location.

Most small bowel cancers are revealed by a complication / A maioria dos cânceres de intestino delgado são revelados por uma complicação

ABSTRACT Objective To characterize the pattern of primary small bowel cancers in a tertiary East-European hospital. Methods A retrospective study of patients with small bowel cancers admitted to a tertiary emergency center, over the past 15 years. Results There were 57 patients with small bowel cancer, representing 0.039% of admissions and 0.059% of laparotomies. There were 37 (64.9%) men, mean age of 58 years; and 72 years for females. Out of 57 patients, 48 (84.2%) were admitted due to an emergency situation: obstruction in 21 (38.9%), perforation in 17 (31.5%), upper gastrointestinal bleeding in 8 (14.8%), and lower gastrointestinal bleeding in 2 (3.7%). There were 10 (17.5%) duodenal tumors, 21 (36.8%) jejunal tumors and 26 (45.6%) ileal tumors. The most frequent neoplasms were gastrointestinal stromal tumor in 24 patients (42.1%), adenocarcinoma in 19 (33.3%), lymphoma in 8 (14%), and carcinoids in 2 (3.5%). The prevalence of duodenal adenocarcinoma was 14.55 times greater than that of the small bowel, and the prevalence of duodenal stromal tumors was 1.818 time greater than that of the small bowel. Obstruction was the complication in adenocarcinoma in 57.9% of cases, and perforation was the major local complication (47.8%) in stromal tumors. Conclusion Primary small bowel cancers are usually diagnosed at advanced stages, and revealed by a local complication of the tumor. Their surgical management in emergency setting is associated to significant morbidity and mortality rates.

RESUMO Objetivo Caracterizar o padrão de neoplasias malignas primárias do intestino delgado em um hospital terciário de Leste Europeu.

A obstrução intestinal foi complicação do adenocarcinoma em 57,9% dos casos, e a perfuração foi a principal complicação local (47,8%) dos tumores estromais. Conclusão As neoplasias malignas primárias do intestino delgado foram geralmente diagnosticadas em estado avançado e reveladas por uma complicação local do tumor. O tratamento cirúrgico em situação de emergência está associado à significativa morbimortalidade.

Type II enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma: a clinicopathologic study / 中华病理学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the clinicopathologic features, immunohistochemical findings, differential diagnosis and prognosis of type II enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Fourteen cases of type II EATL encountered in Department of Pathology, Nanjing General Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical data, histologic features, immunohistochemical findings and follow-up information were analyzed, with literature review.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were altogether 12 males and 2 females. The median age of patient was 49 years. The sites of involvement included jejunum (10 cases) and ileum/colon (4 cases). The patients often presented with an abdominal mass, abdominal pain, diarrhea and constitutional symptoms such as fever, night sweating and cachexia. There was no clinical evidence of gluten-sensitive enteropathy. Histologically, the lymphoma cells showed full-thickness infiltration of the intestinal wall. They contained round hyperchromatic nuclei and pale cytoplasm. The stroma was minimally inflamed, with or without associated coagulative necrosis. A remarkable finding was the presence of villous atrophy, cryptal hyperplasia and intraepithelial lymphocytosis. Immunohistochemical study showed that the tumor cells expressed CD3, CD43 and CD8 (14/14). Some of them were also positive for CD56 (11/14) and CD30 (2/14). The staining for CD4, CD20, CD79a and myeloperoxidase was negative. A high proliferation index was demonstrated by Ki-67 immunostain. In-situ hybridization for EBER was negative. Follow-up data were available in 9 cases. The duration of follow-up ranged from 6 months to 36 months. Seven patients died within 14 months.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>EATL is a rare type of lymphoma with intestinal involvement. Associated enteropathy is not demonstrated, in contrast to cases encountered in Nordic countries. A correct diagnosis requires evaluation of clinical manifestations, pathologic features and ancillary study results.</p>

Clinical Characteristics of Lower Gastrointestinal Cancer in Crohn's Disease: Case Series of 5 Patients

Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory disease that can involve the entire gastrointestinal tract. Several studies indicate that Crohn's patients with long disease duration have an increased risk of small bowel or colorectal cancer. In Korea, only a few cases of Crohn's disease-related small bowel or colorectal cancer have been reported. Here, we described 3 cases of colorectal cancer and 2 cases of small bowel cancer in patients with Crohn's disease. Among 5 patients, 3 had Crohn's disease-related lower gastrointestinal malignancy and the other 2 had sporadic lower gastrointestinal malignancies. Since the diagnosis of Crohn's disease-related lower gastrointestinal malignancy tends to be delayed, the development of malignancy should be considered in patients with long duration of Crohn's disease if patients have refractory symptoms despite intensive medical treatment. Surgical consultation should not be delayed.

A Case of Ileal Mucosa-associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma Accompanied by Luminal Stricture and Arterial Spurting / 대한소화기학회지

Primary small intestinal lymphoma is relatively uncommon. Small bowel tumors are difficult to diagnose, because they are usually asymptomatic in the initial phase, and they are not easily detected by traditional methods of investigating the small intestine. This case shows a successfully detected and treated gastrointestinal bleeding from rare ileal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, using double balloon endoscopy.

Tumor neuroendocrino de Íleon: a propósito de un caso / Ileum's neuroendocrine tumor: report of a case

Los tumores neuroendocrinos (TNE) del aparato gastrointestinal representan menos del 5% de las neoplasias del aparato gastrointestinal siendo el intestino delgado, en especial el íleon, donde se presentan mayor frecuencia (30%). Se originan del sistema endocrino difuso gastrointestinal y tienen capacidad de secretar péptidos y aminas bioactivas, principalmente la 5-hidroxitriptamina (5-HT) o serotonina. La Organización mundial de la salud (OMS) los clasifica de acuerdo al grado de diferenciación y conducta biológica en 5 grados. Las manifestaciones clínicas pueden estar ausentes o ser inespecíficas, su hallazgo, como en el caso de nuestra paciente, puede ser casual. Se reporta el caso de paciente femenino de 56 años la cual consultó por distensión abdominal y dolor anorrectal, realizándose colonoscopia con ileoscopia encontrando tumor subepitelial en íleon terminal con inmunohistoquímica que reportó: Tumor neuroendocrino bien diferenciado. El tratamiento de los TNE varía desde la resección quirúrgica en los estadíos menos avanzados hasta tratamiento quirúrgico asociado a quimioterapia y radioterapia en los más avanzados con una tasa de supervivencia a los 5 y 10 años de 73 y 65% para tumores bien diferenciado. De allí la importancia del diagnóstico precoz. Asimismo resaltar la canulación de retiro de la válvula ileocecal durante la colonoscopia de pesquisa.

The gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors (NET) represent less than 5% of the gastrointestinal tract neoplasms, being the small bowel, specially ileum, the most frequent location (30%). They originate from the diffuse endocrine gastrointestinal system and are able to secrete peptides and bioactive amines, mainly the 5-hidroxitryptamine (5-HT) or serotonine. The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies them according to its differentiation grade and biological behavior in 5 grades. The clinical manifestations could be absent or non specifics. Its finding, as in our patient case, can be casual. We report a case of a 56 years old female patient who complained of abdominal distention and anorectal pain. A colonoscopy with ileoscopy was performed finding a subepithelial tumor in the terminal ileum which inmunohistochemestry reported: Well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor. The treatment of NET varies from surgical resection alone in the less advanced stages, to surgical treatment associated to chemotherapy and radiotherapy in the most advanced stages, with a survival rate of 73 and 65% in the 5 and 10 years for the well differentiated tumors, being very important its early diagnosis. Equally must be highlighted the canulation of ileum cecal valve during a screening colonoscopy.

Tumores primarios del yeyuno-íleon: correlación clínico-patológica / Jejunoileal primary tumors: experience in 24 patients

Background: Short bowel tumors correspond to 2 percent of gastrointestinal tract tumors and are the third cause of bowel obstruction. Aim: To perform a clinico-pathological correlation of jejunoileal tumors. Patients and Methods: Retrospective revision of medical records of patients operated for a primary jejunoileal tumor in a period of 17 years, excluding duodenal tumors. Results: Twenty four patients were identified, seven had gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), six had a carcinoid tumor and five had lymphomas. GIST predominantly involved distal jejunum and proximal ileum, while carcinoid tumors and lymphomas tended to involve the distal ileum. The main clinical presentation of GIST was gastrointestinal bleeding. Carcinoid tumors presented mostly as bowel occlusion and lymphomas as bowel perforation. Benign lesions tended to present as intussusception. CAT scan and CAT enteroclysis allowed the preoperative diagnosis in 20 patients. Immunohistochemistry was relevant for the pathological diagnosis and radical surgery was the basis of treatment. Prognosis depended on the pathology of the tumor, the degree of malignancy and the tumor stage at the moment of diagnosis. Conclusions: Excluding duodenum, GIST and carcinoid tumors account for 65 percent of primary malignant tumors of jejunum and ileum. Some clues for the diagnosis can be obtained from the clinical picture of the patients.

Objetivo: Establecer una correlación clínico-patológico de los tumores primarios de yeyuno e íleon (Y-I). Pacientes y Método: Revisión retrospectiva que incluye todos los pacientes intervenidos por un tumor primario de Y-I, con exclusión de los tumores de duodeno, en un período de 17 años. Resultados: 24 pacientes, destacando 7 tumores GIST, 6 carcinoides y 5 linfomas. Predominio de sexo masculino (20/4), distribución por edad variable según el tipo de tumor (promedio 55,5 años en los GIST, 64 años en los tumores carcinoides y 50 años en los linfomas). Es llamativo el compromiso del yeyuno y de íleon proximal de los GIST, mientras que los tumores carcinoides y el linfoma afectan de preferencia al íleon terminal. En la presentación clínica predomina la hemorragia digestiva en los GIST, la obstrucción intestinal incompleta en los carcinoides, la perforación en los linfomas, la obstrucción aguda en los adenocarcinomas y la intususcepción en las lesiones benignas. La tomografía computada (TC) y la enteroclisis por TC permitió el diagnóstico preoperatorio en 20 pacientes. La inmunohistoquímica (IHQ) es relevante en el diagnóstico histopatológico de certeza y la cirugía radical con R0 es la base del tratamiento de estas lesiones. El pronóstico depende del tipo histológico, el grado de malignidad y la etapa al momento del diagnóstico. Excluyendo el duodeno, el GIST y los tumores carcinoides representan más de la mitad del global y el 65 por ciento de las neoplasias malignas primarias que afectan el segmento Y-I. Conclusión: A pesar de la rareza y de la heterogeneidad de estos tumores, es posible reconocer una correlación clínico patológica útil en el manejo quirúrgico de los tumores primarios de Y-I.

Fibrogenesis and carcinoid tumor: a case report

Carcinoid tumors are rare. They may appear in the entire gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, with single or multiple occurrences. Prognosis is dependent on the size and location. Symptoms may appear in carcinoid syndrome, related to active substances, especially serotonin. One important aspect associated with these tumors and usually ignored is fibrogenesis. This is a case report of a patient with carcinoid tumor of the terminal ileum, treated by laparoscopy, associated with fat and fibrosis infiltration. (AU)

Tumores carcinoides são pouco frequentes, podem surgir em todo o trato gastrointestinal e respiratório, podem ser únicos ou múltiplos. O prognóstico depende do tamanho e da localização do tumor. Podem ocorrer sintomas relacionados à síndrome carcinoide, decorrente da produção de substâncias ativas, em especial serotonina. Um aspecto comumente ignorado associado a estes tumores é a estimulação da fibrogênese. Relatamos um caso de tumor carcinoide de íleo, tratado por videolaparoscopia, associado à infiltração fibroadiposa. (AU)

Tumores primarios del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST) localizados en yeyuno e íleon: reporte de un caso / Primary gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) presenting in jejunum and ileum: a case report

Introduction. Multiple primary gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are an infrequent finding in patients without known risk factors for this condition, such as type I neurofibromatosis or Carney’s triad. Benign and malignant tumors might coexist in the same patient. We discuss one case of a benign jejunal GIST and a malignant ileal GIST coexisting in the same patient. Case Report. A 46-years-old male patient presented with a distal ileum perforated GIST and a small non-complicated proximal jejunum GIST diagnosed by computerized tomography. The patient was submitted to surgery and both tumors were managed without incidents. Discussion. Radiological and pathological characteristics of GIST are clearly established, this clinical case highlights those characteristics and illustrates an uncommon clinical scenario in patients without known risk factors for multiple GIST.

Introducción: Los tumores múltiples del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST), son un hallazgo infrecuente en pacientes sin factores de riesgo como neurofibromatosis tipo I o tríada de Carney. En estos casos pueden coexistir GIST benignos y malignos en un mismo paciente. El presente reporte discute el caso de un paciente que se presenta con un GIST maligno perforado de íleon distal y con un GIST benigno de yeyuno proximal. Reporte de caso: Paciente masculino de 46 años de edad que se presentó con un GIST de íleon distal perforado y un pequeño GIST no complicado de yeyuno proximal diagnosticados mediante tomografía abdominal. Ambos tumores se resolvieron quirúrgicamente sin incidentes. Discusión: Las características anatomopatológicas y radiológicas de los GIST se encuentran actualmente claramente establecidas, el presente caso remarca estas características e ilustra una situación clínica poco habitual en pacientes sin factores de riesgo para GIST múltiples.

Laparoscopic left lateral segmentectomy for metachronic metastases of small intestine adenocarcinoma: a case report

Hepatectomy has been the standard treatment for metachronic metastases of non-colorectal (NCR) origin, mainly when the disease-free interval is more than two years. Laparoscopic hepatectomy has become the golden standard mainly for left side resections, due to lower morbidity, shorter hospital stay, early recovery and good cosmetic outcome. The authors report the case of a female patient with two metachronic metastases (ten years of disease-free survival), of non-colorectal origin (adenocarcinoma of small intestine), treated by laparoscopic left lateral segmentectomy (left hepatic lobectomy) with success. The postoperative progress was satisfactory. To date, the patient has presented no tumoral recurrence (six months of follow-up period). Laparoscopic left lateral segmentectomy can be satisfactorily performed in selected cases of hepatic metastasis. This approach presents low morbidity and good cosmetic result. The lack of alternative treatments and the poor prognosis of untreated cases have justified surgical resection in order to increase overall survival. Nevertheless, this approach should be performed by hepatic surgery expertise teams trained on advanced laparoscopic procedures. (AU)

A hepatectomia tem sido o tratamento padrão para metástase de origem não colorretal (NCR) metacrônica, principalmente quando o intervalo livre de doença é maior do que dois anos. A hepatectomia por laparoscopia tem se tornado padrão principalmente para as ressecções à esquerda, haja vista a menor morbidade, menor tempo de internação, reabilitação precoce e melhor resultado estético. Os autores relatam um caso de paciente com duas metástases metacrônicas (10 anos de sobrevida livre de doença), de etiologia não colorretal (adenocarcinoma de intestino delgado), tratada com segmentectomia lateral esquerda (lobectomia hepática esquerda) laparoscópica. Paciente apresentou boa evolução pós-operatória sem recidiva (seis meses de seguimento). Segmentectomia lateral esquerda laparoscópica pode ser satisfatoriamente realizada em casos selecionados de metástases hepáticas, acarretando menor morbidade e melhor resultado estético. A falta de tratamentos alternativos e o prognóstico reservado nos casos de metástases NCR não operadas justificam a ressecção com o objetivo de prolongar a sobrevida. No entanto, essa abordagem deve ser realizada por equipe especializada em cirurgia hepática com treinamento em procedimentos laparoscópicos avançados. (AU)

Ileal perineurioma as a cause of intussusception / Perineurioma ileal como uma causa de intussuscepção

CONTEXT: Perineuriomas are rare tumors composed of cells resembling those of the normal perineurium. It usually occurs in subcutaneous, soft-tissue or intraneural locations. Very few reports in the literature have described perineuriomas in the gastrointestinal tract, including the stomach, colon and jejunum. CASE REPORT: We report the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features of a case of ileal perineurioma that was manifested clinically as intestinal obstruction due to intussusception. Ileal perineurioma has not previously been reported at this anatomical location.

CONTEXTO: Perineurioma é uma rara neoplasia composta de células que lembram aquelas do perineuro normal e geralmente ocorre no subcutâneo, tecidos moles ou em localização intraneural. Poucos relatos na literatura descrevem perineuriomas no trato gastrointestinal incluindo estômago, cólon e jejuno. RELATO DE CASO: Os autores apresentam as características clinicopatológicas e imunoistoquímicas de um caso de perineurioma ileal apresentando-se clinicamente por obstrução intestinal decorrente de intussuscepção. Perineurioma ileal não havia sido descrito até o momento nessa localização anatômica.
