RESUMO

ABSTRACT Introduction: Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid proliferations occurring after solid organ or bone marrow transplantation. The primary aims of our study were to characterize cumulative incidence of PTLDs, clinical and pathological features according to the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) status and survival. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study on adult and pediatric patients, from January 2001 to December 2017. The cumulative incidence of PTLD was calculated by analyzing all the patients transplanted at our hospital, based on the database of the Organ Donation and Ablation Authority of Argentina (INCUCAI). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot the survival. Results: Fifty-eight cases of biopsy-confirmed PTLD were identified and 12 cases of clinical data were incomplete and these patients were excluded. The median age at the time of the PTLD diagnosis was 17.5 years (interquartile range [IQR] 9 - 57). The median interval between transplant and PTLD diagnosis was 39 months (IQR 9 - 113). The most commonly transplanted organ was the liver (24 cases, 52.2%), followed by kidney (20 cases, 43.5%). The Epstein-Barr encoding region in situ hybridization (EBER ISH) was positive in 29 (69.8%) of the 43 evaluable biopsies. The PTLD cumulative incidence was 1.84% (95%CI 1.77 - 1.91) for solid organ and 0.84% (95%CI 0.48 - 1.2) for bone marrow transplant patients. The overall survival rate at 5 years was 0.77 (95%CI 0.61 - 0.87). Subgroups by the EBV EBER status, transplant type, PTLD subtype and age group (adult vs. pediatric) showed no statistically significant association with the overall survival. Conclusion: The PTLD incidence was similar to that of previous series and the EBER did not appear as a relevant factor in our patient survival.

RESUMO

The case is presented on a 52-year-old male patient, who was seen in the Rheumatology department. He had painless lymph nodes in the cervical, axillary, supraclavicular, and neck region. He also had a fever, and parotid and submaxillary gland enlargement. Complementary studies were performed, showing normocytic-normochromic anemia, thrombocytopenia and eosinophilia, impaired renal function with hypoalbuminaemia and hematuria, ANA 1/5120, Sm+, ACL+. Biopsies were also performed on the compromised tissues, reaching the diagnosis of Rosai-Dorfman Disease and IgG4-related Disease. Differential diagnoses of cervical, axillary and inguinal lymph nodes, with fever, renal and hematological compromise are discussed.

RESUMO

Abstract Some patients diagnosed with idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis could be reclassified as IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). Classification criteria have not been uniform and prevalence of IgG4-related retroperitoneal fibrosis (IgG4-RPF) is unknown in our region. We aimed to describe IgG4-RPF frequency relying on criteria published recently and comparing clinical, histopathologic and radiologic features with non-IgG4-RPF. From January, 2005 to December, 2020, nineteen adults with histopathologic diagnosis of idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis were included in a dynamic retrospective cohort at Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires. Pathology slides were reviewed and immunohistochemistry was performed and assessed for each case. We used classification criteria described in 2019 American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism to identify IgG4-RD cases. Ten of 19 patients met criteria for IgG4-RPF. Median age was similar in two subsets (61 versus 55, p = 0.2) and both had male predominance. Three out of 10 patients (p = 0.2) featured other manifestations of IgG4-RD in the IgG4-RPF group, and periaortic fibrosis was the most significant finding in images (p = 0.01). Corticosteroids were mostly used as therapy, followed by azathioprine and rituximab. Most patients did not receive specific treatment. IgG4-RPF patients had dense lymphocytic infiltrate and 8 out of 10 showed storiform fibrosis (p = 0.02). IgG4+ cells/hpf and IgG4/IgG ratio were significantly higher (p = 0.01). Over half of the patients in our cohort met the criteria of IgG4-RPF. New criteria may harmonize the identification of IgG4-RD. As IgG4-RD may be reversible at initial stages, these findings may lead to early recognition, treatment and integral follow-up.


Resumen Muchos pacientes con diagnóstico de fibrosis retroperitoneal idiopática (FRI) pueden ser reclasificados como enfermedad relacionada con IgG4 (ER- IgG4). Los criterios diagnósticos no han sido uniformes y la frecuencia de fibrosis retroperitoneal relacionada con IgG4 en nuestra región es desconocida. El objetivo fue describir la frecuencia de ER-IgG4 en pacientes clasificados como FRI y comparar características clínicas, histopatológicas y de laboratorio con aquellos que no reunían criterios de la enfermedad. Se incluyeron 19 adultos en un estudio de cohorte retrospectiva dinámica con diagnóstico anatomopatológico de FRI, en el Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, desde enero de 2005 hasta diciembre de 2020. Se revisaron las biopsias y se realizó inmun ohistoquímica en cada una. Se consideró caso al paciente que reunía los criterios de la American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism 2019. Diez pacientes reunieron criterios de ER-IgG4. La mediana de edad fue similar en ambos grupos (61 vs. 55, p = 0.2) y en ambos hubo predominio masculino. Tres de 10 pacientes (p = 0.2) tuvieron otras manifestaciones de ER-IgG4 y la fibrosis periaórtica fue el hallazgo más significativo en los estudios por imágenes (p = 0.01). Los corticoides fueron las drogas más utilizadas seguidos por azatioprina y rituximab, pero la mayoría no reci bió tratamiento específico. Todos los pacientes con fibrosis retroperitoneal relacionada con IgG4 presentaron infiltrado linfocitario denso y 8/10 fibrosis estoriforme (p = 0.01), así como las células IgG4+/hpf y ratio IgG4/ IgG fueron significativamente mayores (p = 0.01). Más de la mitad de los pacientes con FRI cumplieron criterios de ER-IgG4. Los nuevos criterios diagnósticos podrían contribuir a homogeneizar la identificación de ER-IgG4. Dado que esta enfermedad puede ser reversible en estadios tempranos, estos resultados promueven aumentar el conocimiento de la entidad para tratamiento precoz y seguimiento integral.

RESUMO

La policondritis recidivante (RP) es un trastorno autoinmune sistémico poco frecuente que se caracteriza por episodio y deterioro progresivo de la inflamación del cartílago. Aproximadamente el 30% de los pacientes con RP tienen enfermedad concurrente. Sin embargo, hay tres casos previos reportados de RP relacionado con enfermedad relacionada con la inmunoglobulina G4 (IgG4-RD). Nosotros presentamos otro caso de una mujer de 37 años que desarrolló RP aproximadamente 1 año antes del diagnóstico de IgG4-RD. La asociación entre ER-IgG4 y RP sigue sin estar clara.


Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by the episodic and progressive deterioration of cartilage inflammation. Approximately 30% patients with RP have concurrent disease. However, there are three cases reports of RP complicated by immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD). Here we report another case of a 37-year-old female who developed RP approximately 1 years before IgG4-RD diagnosis. The association between IgG4-RD and RP remains unclear.

RESUMO

Se estima que aproximadamente 100 trillones de microorganismos (incluidos bacterias, virus y hongos) residen en el intestino humano adulto y que el total del material genético del microbioma es 100 veces superior al del genoma humano. Esta comunidad, conocida como microbioma se adquiere al momento del nacimiento a través de la flora comensal de la piel, vagina y heces de la madre y se mantiene relativamente estable a partir de los dos años desempeñando un papel crítico tanto en el estado de salud como en la enfermedad. El desarrollo de nuevas tecnologías, como los secuenciadores de próxima generación (NGS), permiten actualmente realizar un estudio mucho más preciso de ella que en décadas pasadas cuando se limitaba a su cultivo. Si bien esto ha llevado a un crecimiento exponencial en las publicaciones, los datos sobre las poblaciones Latinoamérica son casi inexistentes. La investigación traslacional en microbioma (InTraMic) es una de las líneas que se desarrollan en el Instituto de Medicina Traslacional e Ingeniería Biomédica (IMTIB). Esta se inició en 2018 con la línea de cáncer colorrectal (CCR) en una colaboración con el Colorectal Cancer Research Group del Leeds Institute of Medical Research en el proyecto Large bowel microbiome disease network: Creation of a proof of principle exemplar in colorectal cancer across three continents. A fines de 2019 se cumplió el objetivo de comprobar la factibilidad de la recolección, envío y análisis de muestras de MBF en 5 continentes, incluyendo muestras provenientes de la Argentina, Chile, India y Vietnam. Luego de haber participado de capacitaciones en Inglaterra, se ha cumplido con el objetivo de la etapa piloto, logrando efectivizar la recolección, envío y análisis metagenómico a partir de la secuenciación de la región V4 del ARNr 16S. En 2019, la línea de enfermedad de hígado graso no alcohólico se sumó a la InTraMic iniciando una caracterización piloto en el marco de una colaboración con el laboratorio Novartis. Los resultados de ese estudio, así como el de cáncer colorrectal, están siendo enviados a publicación. En 2020, con la incorporación de la línea de trasplante alogénico de células progenitoras hematopoyéticas, fue presentado un proyecto para un subsidio del CONICET que ha superado la primera etapa de evaluación. En el presente artículo se brinda una actualización sobre la caracterización taxonómica de microbioma y se describen las líneas de investigación en curso. (AU)


It is estimated that approximately 100 trillion microorganisms (including bacteria, viruses, and fungi) reside in the adult human intestine, and that the total genetic material of the microbiome is 100 times greater than that of the human genome. This community, known as the microbiome, is acquired at birth through the commensal flora of the mother's skin, vagina, and feces and remains relatively stable after two years, playing a critical role in both the state of health and in disease. The development of new technologies, such as next-generation sequencers (NGS), currently allow for a much more precise study of it than in past decades when it was limited to cultivation. Although this has led to exponential growth in publications, data on Latin American populations is almost non-existent. Translational research in microbiome (InTraMic) is one of the lines developed at the Instituto de Medicina Traslacional e Ingeniería Biomédica (IMTIB). This started in 2018 with the Colorectal Cancer Line (CRC) in a collaboration with the Colorectal Cancer Research Group of the Leeds Institute of Medical Research in the project "Large bowel microbiome disease network: Creation of a proof of principle exemplar in colorectal cancer across three continents". At the end of 2019, the objective of verifying the feasibility of collecting, sending and analyzing MBF samples on 5 continents, including samples from Argentina, Chile, India and Vietnam, was met. After having participated in training in England, the objective of the pilot stage has been met, achieving the collection, delivery and metagenomic analysis from the sequencing of the V4 region of the 16S rRNA. In 2019, the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease line joined InTraMic, initiating a pilot characterization in the framework of a collaboration with the Novartis laboratory. The results of that study, as well as that of colorectal cancer, are being published. In 2020, with the incorporation of the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation line, a project was presented for a grant from the CONICET that has passed the first stage of evaluation. This article provides an update on the taxonomic characterization of the microbiome and describes the lines of ongoing research. (AU)
