RESUMO
Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy and safety of bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion in uterine curettage for patients with cesarean scar pregnancy(CSP).Methods The clinical data of a total of 80 CSP patients,who were admitted to the Fuyang People's Hospital of China between January 2021 and September 2022 to receive treatment,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the observation group(n=40)and the control group(n=40).For the patients of the observation group,the hysteroscopic uterine curettage was carried out under the situation of bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion and during the operation the internal iliac artery was intermittently blocked.The embryo was removed,and the hemostasis was accomplished by electrocoagulation or surgical suture.For the patients of the control group,the hysteroscopic uterine curettage was performed within 1-2 days after uterine artery embolization(UAE).The digital subtraction angiography(DSA)fluoroscopy time,body surface radiation dose,blood loss during uterine curettage,time spent for uterine curettage,length of hospital stay,and postoperative follow-up results were compared between the two groups.Results Successful uterine curettage was accomplished and the uterus was retained in all the patients.In the observation group,no balloon-related complications occurred.In the control group,all the 40 patients developed different degrees of fever,pain at uterine area,and other post-embolization symptoms after UAE.In the observation group and the control group,the DSA fluoroscopy time was(9.2±1.1)seconds and(1 273.6±141.1)seconds respectively,the body surface radiation dose was(7.7±0.8)mGy and(1 503.8±101.8)mGy respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(both P<0.05);the blood loss during uterine curettage was(30.3±14.7)mL and(27.5±13.2)mL respectively,the time spent for uterine curettage was(41.6±16.2)min and(42.8±15.0)min respectively,the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant(both P>0.05);the length of hospital stay was(6.0±0.7)days and(7.3±0.8)days respectively,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05).All patients were followed up for more than 3 months,the time of β-hCG turning to negative,time of vaginal bleeding,time of menstruation returning to normal,and patient satisfaction rate in the observation group were(21.1±2.4)days,(8.2±1.1)days,(29.5±2.2)days and 95.0%(38/40)respectively,which in the control group were(24.6±3.3)days,(13.6±2.6)days,(46.7±7.3)days and 67.5%(27/40)respectively,the differences in the above indexes between the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion In performing uterine curettage for CSP patients,both bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion and UAE can significantly reduce the intraoperative blood loss,but bilateral internal iliac artery Fogarty balloon occlusion is superior to UAE in reducing radiation dose,in shortening the patient's hospital stay,the time of β-hCG turning to negative,the time of vaginal bleeding and the time of menstruation returning to normal,and in improving the patient satisfaction rate.
RESUMO
Introducción: Se conoce como interrupción voluntaria del embarazo a la muerte biológica del embrión o feto para su posterior eliminación, con o sin asistencia médica y en cualquier circunstancia social o legal. Objetivo: Caracterizar la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo en pacientes mayores de 19 años en los municipios de la región del Guacanayabo perteneciente a la provincia Granma en el año 2022. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo y de corte transversal sobre la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo en pacientes mayores de 19 años pertenecientes a los siete municipios a la región del Guacanayabo, provincia Granma en el periodo de enero a diciembre del 2022. El universo estuvo constituido por 579 gestantes, para lo cual se seleccionó una muestra de 572 mediante muestreo no probabilístico intencional. Resultados: El municipio de Manzanillo fue el que mayor casos aportó (53,1 %). Prevalecieron las edades de 20 a 24 años (34,3 %). Predominaron las mujeres con un nivel de escolaridad de preuniversitario/técnico medio (56,9 %), 71,9 % estaban casadas, el 53,2 % trabajaban, el 54,9 % eran de procedencia urbana y 76,4 % de las mujeres tenían antecedentes obstétricos. El método de interrupción más utilizado fue el de dilatación y curetaje (98,6 %). Conclusiones: El municipio Manzanillo aportó el mayor número de casos de interrupciones de embarazos al año. Las mujeres de procedencia urbana se someten con mayor frecuencia a interrupciones de embarazos, siendo el procedimiento de dilatación y curetaje el método de interrupción más empleado.
Introduction: It is known as voluntary interruption of pregnancy to the biological death of the embryo or fetus for its subsequent elimination, with or without medical assistance, and in any social or legal circumstance. Objective: To characterize the voluntary interruption of pregnancy in patients over 19 years of age in the municipalities of the Guacanayabo region belonging to Granma province in 2022. Methods: A descriptive, retrospective and cross-sectional study was conducted on voluntary termination of pregnancy in patients over 19 years of age from the seven municipalities of the Guacanayabo region, Granma province, from January to December 2022. The universe consisted of 579 pregnant women, for which a sample of 572 was selected by intentional non-probabilistic sampling. Results: The municipality of Manzanillo was the one with the highest number of cases (53, 1 %). The prevalence was between 20 and 24 years of age. Women with a pre-university/intermediate technical education predominated. (56, 9 per cent), 71, 9 per cent were married, 53, 2 per cent worked, 54.9 per cent were of urban origin and 76.4 per cent of women had an obstetric history. The most commonly used method of interruption was dilatation and curettage (98,6 %). Conclusions: The municipality of Manzanillo contributes the highest number of cases of terminations of pregnancies per year. Urban women are more likely to undergo abortions, with dilatation and curettage being the most widely used method of termination.

Cinco pacientes tuvieron dos o más cesáreas, el resto una sola previa y cinco antecedente de legrado obstétrico. Nueve de 11 pacientes se atendieron con menos de 8 semanas de embarazo. La tasa de éxito alcanzada fue en las 11 pacientes, con negativización de la beta hCG a los 38.7 días en promedio. No se registraron complicaciones severas ni requerimiento de atención quirúrgica. CONCLUSIONES: Se describió la implementación de un esquema combinado sistémico y local con metotrexato que resultó seguro y efectivo, con preservación de la fertilidad.
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To report a scheme of non-surgical care in patients with cesarean scar pregnancy in the context of a health system with low resources. In addition, to describe the tolerance, monitoring, evolution and outcome of each of the patients treated with the proposed scheme. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Descriptive study of a case series of patients who, between May 2020 and March 2023, attended the emergency room of a tertiary care institution in Barranquilla, Colombia, because of obstetric symptoms or were referred to the institution with a diagnosis of cesarean scar pregnancy confirmed by ultrasound. Study parameters: measurement of sociodemographic, obstetric, clinical evolution and maternal complication variables. Descriptive analysis of data was performed. Results: Eleven patients were documented, giving an incidence of 1.85 cases per 5000 pregnancies. Pelvic pain and bleeding were the most common symptoms. Five patients had two or more previous cesarean sections, the remainder had only one previous cesarean section, and five had a history of obstetric curettage. Nine of the 11 patients were treated at less than 8 weeks'; gestation. The success rate was 100%, with a mean beta-hCG negativity of 38.7 days. There were no major complications and no surgical intervention was required. CONCLUSIONS: We describe the implementation of a combined systemic and local regimen with methotrexate that was safe and effective, with preservation of fertility.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Introduction: Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) mainly affects young adults' long bone epiphyses, threatening bone strength and joint function. Surgery is the primary treatment, although post-surgery recurrence is significant. This study analyzes patient profiles, treatments, and outcomes for GCTB in Brazil. Methods: We retrospectively assessed local recurrence, metastasis, and treatment approaches in 643 GCTB patients across 16 Brazilian centers (1989-2021), considering regional differences. Results: 5.1% (n=33) developed pulmonary metastases, 14.3% (n=92) had pathological fractures, and the local recurrence rate was 18.2% (n=114). Higher rates of pulmonary metastases (12.1%) and advanced tumors (Campanacci III, 88.9%) were noted in lower-income North and Northeast regions. The North also had more pathological fractures (33.3%), extensive resections (61.1%), and amputations (27.8%). These regions faced longer surgical delays (36-39 days) than the South and Southeast (27-33 days). Conclusions: Our findings corroborate international data, underscoring regional disparities in Brazil that may lead to worse outcomes in disadvantaged areas. This highlights the need for improved orthopedic oncology care in Brazil's economically and structurally challenged regions. Level of Evidence III; Retrospective Cohort.
RESUMO Introdução: O tumor de células gigantes do osso (TCG) atinge principalmente epífises de ossos longos em adultos jovens, impactando a resistência óssea e a funcionalidade articular. O tratamento principal é cirúrgico, mas há significativa recorrência pós-operatória. Este estudo analisa o perfil de pacientes e tumores de TCG no Brasil, abordagens de tratamento e resultados. Métodos: Avaliamos retrospectivamente taxas de recorrência, metástase e tratamentos em 643 pacientes tratados em 16 centros brasileiros de 1989 a 2021, considerando a distribuição geopolítica. Resultados: 5,1% desenvolveram metástases pulmonares e 14,3% tiveram fraturas patológicas. A recorrência local foi de 18,2%. Regiões economicamente menos favorecidas, como Norte e Nordeste, mostraram maiores incidências de metástases pulmonares (12,1%) e tumores avançados (Campanacci III, 88,9%). O Norte teve alta ocorrência de fraturas patológicas (33,3%), cirurgias extensas (61,1%) e amputações (27,8%). Nessas regiões, o tempo pré-cirúrgico foi mais longo (médias de 36 e 39 dias) comparado ao Sul e Sudeste (27 e 33 dias, respectivamente). Conclusões: Os resultados refletem disparidades regionais no Brasil, sugerindo que condições socioeconômicas influenciam os desfechos clínicos. Estes achados são importantes para melhorar o cuidado oncológico ortopédico em regiões desfavorecidas do país. Nível de Evidência III; Coorte Retrospectiva.
RESUMO
Abstract Objective To assess the efficacy, safety, and acceptability of misoprostol in the treatment of incomplete miscarriage. Data sources The PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Clinical Trials databases (clinicaltrials.gov) were searched for the relevant articles, and search strategies were developed using a combination of thematic Medical Subject Headings terms and text words. The last search was conducted on July 4, 2022. No language restrictions were applied. Selection of studies Randomized clinical trials with patients of gestational age up to 6/7 weeks with a diagnosis of incomplete abortion and who were managed with at least 1 of the 3 types of treatment studied were included. A total of 8,087 studies were screened. Data collection Data were synthesized using the statistical package Review Manager V.5.1 (The Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, United Kingdom). For dichotomous outcomes, the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were derived for each study. Heterogeneity between the trial results was evaluated using the standard test, I2 statistic. Data synthesis When comparing misoprostol with medical vacuum aspiration (MVA), the rate of complete abortion was higher in the MVA group (OR = 0.16; 95%CI = 0.07-0.36). Hemorrhage or heavy bleeding was more common in the misoprostol group (OR = 3.00; 95%CI = 1.96-4.59), but pain after treatment was more common in patients treated with MVA (OR = 0.65; 95%CI = 0.52-0.80). No statistically significant differences were observed in the general acceptability of the treatments. Conclusion Misoprostol has been determined as a safe option with good acceptance by patients.
Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a eficácia, segurança e aceitabilidade do misoprostol no tratamento do aborto incompleto. Fontes de dados Os bancos de dados PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library e bancos de dados de Ensaios Clínicos (clinicaltrials.gov) foram pesquisados para os artigos relevantes, e estratégias de busca foram desenvolvidas usando uma combinação de termos temáticos de Medical Subject Headings e palavras de texto. A última pesquisa foi realizada em 4 de julho de 2022. Nenhuma restrição de idioma foi aplicada. Seleção dos estudos Foram incluídos ensaios clínicos randomizados com pacientes com idade gestacional até 6/7 semanas com diagnóstico de aborto incompleto e que foram manejadas com pelo menos um dos três tipos de tratamento estudados. Um total de 8.087 estudos foram selecionados. Coleta de dados Os dados foram sintetizados usando o pacote estatístico Review Manager V.5.1 (The Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, United Kingdom). Para resultados dicotômicos, o odds ratio (OR, na sigla em inglês) e o intervalo de confiança (IC) de 95% foram derivados para cada estudo. A heterogeneidade entre os resultados do ensaio foi avaliada usando o teste padrão, estatística I2. Síntese dos dados Ao comparar misoprostol com aspiração a vácuo médico (MVA, na sigla em inglês), a taxa de aborto completo foi maior no grupo MVA (OR = 0,16; IC95% = 0,07-0,36). Hemorragia ou sangramento intenso foi mais comum no grupo do misoprostol (OR = 3,00; 95%CI = 1,96-4,59), mas a dor após o tratamento foi mais comum em pacientes tratados com MVA (OR = 0,65; 95%CI = 0,52-0,80). Não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significativas na aceitabilidade geral dos tratamentos. Conclusão O misoprostol tem se mostrado uma opção segura e com boa aceitação pelos pacientes.

Objetivo: identificar possíveis alterações da tomada de decisão médica para esvaziamento uterino pós-aborto de primeiro trimestre no cenário da COVID-19em dois hospitais públicos do Distrito Federal. Metodologia: abordagem qualitativa, que usou dois procedimentos metodológicosdocumental e entrevistas,cuja coleta de dados ocorreu entre maio e junho de 2022. No hospital A, coletou-se, em 25 registros consecutivos do livro do centro cirúrgico, a técnica de esvaziamento uterino pós-aborto prevalecente em 2020. No hospital B, coletou-se o mesmo dado em 48 prontuários clínicos, 23 de 2019 e 25 de 2020. As entrevistas semiestruturadas foram realizadas com onze profissionais de saúde: três médicos, quatro enfermeiros e quatro técnicos de enfermagem, lotados na obstetrícia/centro cirúrgico de cada hospital. Resultados: ambos os hospitais, no recorte temporal do estudo de 2019 a 2020, dispuseram de insumos para a eleição por quaisquer das técnicas de esvaziamento uterino. No hospital A, em 2020, a tomada de decisão médica foi 100% pela aspiração manual intrauterina. Em2019, no hospital B, a eleição foi 100% pela dilatação e curetagem; em 2020, período da COVID-19, apesar da dilatação e curetagem manter-se prioritária em 78% dos casos, notabilizou redução em relação a 2019. Evidenciou-se, ainda, no hospital B um maior quantitativo de atendimentos e internações de mulheres em processo de pós-aborto, se comparado como período anterior à COVID-19. Conclusão: o fator determinante para a tomada de decisão médica em ambos os hospitais é a aptidão técnica do médico para a abordagem eleita.
Objective: to discern potential shifts in medical decision-making regarding the selection of uterine evacuation techniques post-abortion in the first trimester within the context of the COVID-19 scenario at two public hospitals in the Federal District. Methods: employing a qualitative approach, the study utilized two methodological procedures - documents and interviews. Data collection occurred between May and June of 2022. At Hospital A, prevalent post-abortion uterine evacuation techniques in 2020 were obtained from 25 consecutive records sourced from the surgical center book. At Hospital B, similar data was collected from 48 clinical records, encompassing 23 from 2019 and 25 from 2020. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eleven health professionals, including three doctors, four nurses, and four nursing technicians, working in the obstetrics/surgical center of each hospital. Results: during the study period (2019 and 2020), both hospitals maintained supplies for adopting various uterine evacuation techniques. In Hospital A in 2020, medical decision-making predominantly favored manual intrauterine aspiration. Conversely, in 2019 at Hospital B, dilation and curettage were the preferred technique in 100% of cases, and despite remaining a priority in 78% of cases in 2020 during the COVID-19 period, there was a noticeable reduction compared to 2019. Hospital B also witnessed a heightened number of consultations and hospitalizations of women in the post-abortion process during the COVID-19 period compared to the pre-pandemic period. Conclusion: the pivotal factor influencing medical decision-making in both hospitals is the technical proficiency required for executing the chosen uterine evacuation technique.

Direito SanitárioRESUMO
Ameloblastoma is a benign, locally aggressive neoplasm that constitutes about 1–3% of the tumors of the jaw. Wide surgical excision with adequate safe margin is the most common treatment of choice. The study aimed to manage cases with unicystic ameloblastoma while preserving the continuity of the mandible (without resection). This article presents a series of cases ranging from 18 to 40 years old patients of both sexes with unicystic ameloblastoma, especially in the mandible showing more male predilection than female. All the cases presented in this article were treated by enucleation and curettage. None of the patients presented post?operative paresthesia. None of the cases went in for resection. Post?operative recovery was uneventful in all the patients. All the patients were followed up for a period of 3.5–5 years. None of the cases reported recurrence at the date of publication.
RESUMO
Background: Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) or menstrual bleeding of abnormal amount, duration, or schedule is a common gynecological condition occurring in up to 50% of women of all age groups. Chronic, heavy, prolonged, or irregular uterine bleeding can lead to anemia, and raise a concern about severe underlying malignancy. Therefore, histopathological examination of the endometrium is critical in evaluating the cause of AUB. Aims and Objectives: The aims of this study were to study the various histomorphological patterns in endometrial biopsies in cases of AUB. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study done on 212 endometrial tissues in women presenting with AUB. The study is aimed at analyzing the histopathological changes occurring in the endometrium by identifying the cause of bleeding and recording the incidence of various histopathological findings in different age groups. Results: Proliferative endometrium, the most common histopathological finding, accounted for 51.9% of cases, followed by secretory endometrium (24.5%). Eight cases of disordered proliferative endometrium were found in the present study. Eight cases, accounting for 3.8% of endometrial hyperplasia, were associated with AUB, out of which two cases were found to be complex hyperplasia with atypia. Endometrial carcinoma was seen in two cases associated with AUB. Pregnancy-related changes were found in 7 (3.3%) cases, retained product of conception was the leading cause of bleeding (3 cases). Conclusion: Histopathological evaluation of endometrium in women presenting with AUB is of paramount importance not only to diagnose various benign conditions but also to detect some highly malignant lesions and precancerous conditions so that early interventions can be started.
RESUMO
Abstract Objective This is the first study to establish the utility of extended curettage with or without bone allograft for Grade II giant cell tumors GCTs around the knee joint with the aim of exploring postoperative functional outcomes. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 25 cases of Campanacci grade II GCTs undergoing extended curettage between January 2014 and December 2019. The participants were divided into two groups: one group of 12 patients underwent extended curettage with bone allograft and bone cement, while the other group of 13 patients underwent extended curettage with bone cement only. Quality of life was assessed by the Revised Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Score and by the Knee score of the Knee Society; recurrence and complications were assessed for each cohort at the last follow-up. The Fisher test and two-sample t-tests were used to compare the categorical and continuous outcomes, respectively. Results The mean age was 28.09 (7.44) years old, with 10 (40%) males and 15 females (60%). The distal femur and the proximal tibia were involved in 13 (52%) and in 12 (48%) patients, respectively. There was no significant difference in the musculoskeletal tumor society score (25.75 versus 27.41; p= 0.178), in the knee society score (78.67 versus 81.46; p= 0.33), recurrence (0 versus 0%; p= 1), and complications (25 versus 7.69%; p= 0.21). Conclusions Extended curettage with or without bone allograft have similar functional outcomes for the knee without any major difference in the incidence of recurrence and of complications for Grade II GCTs. However, surgical convenience and cost-effectiveness might favor the bone cement only, while long-term osteoarthritis prevention needs to be investigated to favor bone allograft.
Resumo Objetivo Este é o primeiro estudo a estabelecer a utilidade da curetagem estendida com ou sem enxerto ósseo em tumores de células gigantes (TCGs) de grau II na articulação do joelho com o objetivo de explorar os resultados funcionais pós-operatórios. Métodos Revisamos retrospectivamente 25 casos de TCGs de grau II de Campanacci submetidos a curetagem estendida entre janeiro de 2014 e dezembro de 2019. Os participantes foram divididos em 2 grupos: um grupo de 12 pacientes foi submetido a curetagem estendida com aloenxerto ósseo e cimento ósseo, enquanto o outro grupo, com 13 pacientes, foi submetido a curetagem estendida apenas com cimento ósseo. A qualidade de vida foi avaliada pela Pontuação Revista da Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MTS, na sigla em inglês) e pela Pontuação da Knee Society (KS, na sigla em inglês), enquanto as taxas de recidiva e complicações foram avaliadas em cada coorte na última consulta de acompanhamento. O teste de Fisher e os testes t de duas amostras foram usados para comparação de resultados categóricos e contínuos, respectivamente Resultados A média de idade dos pacientes foi de 28,09 (7,44) anos; 10 (40%) pacientes eram do sexo masculino e 15 (60%) pacientes eram do sexo feminino. O fêmur distal e a tíbia proximal foram acometidos em 13 (52%) e 12 (48%) dos pacientes, respectivamente. Não houve diferença significativa na pontuação revista da MTS (25,75 versus 27,41; p= 0,178), na pontuação da KS (78,67 versus 81,46; p= 0,33) e nas taxas de recidiva (0 versus 0%; p= 1) e complicações (25 versus 7,69%; p= 0,21). Conclusões A curetagem estendida com ou sem aloenxerto ósseo tem resultados funcionais semelhantes em pacientes com TCGs de grau II no joelho, sem qualquer diferença importante na incidência de recidivas e complicações. No entanto, a conveniência cirúrgica e o custo-benefício podem favorecer a utilização apenas de cimento ósseo, enquanto a prevenção da osteoartrite em longo prazo precisa ser investigada para favorecer o enxerto ósseo.

Objective To establish a risk prediction model,and to observe its value for predicting retained cesarean scar pregnancy(CSP)after ultrasound-guided curettage.Methods Data of 401 CSP patients who received ultrasound-guided curettage were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were randomly divided into training set(n=264)or validation set(n=137)at a ratio of 7:3.According to whether there was retained CSP at the lower segmental scar of uterine after ultrasound-guided curettage,the patients were divided into retained group or non-retained group.The variables with the biggest predictive value for retained CSP after ultrasound-guided curettage were selected with LASSO regression,and the independent risk factors were screened using multivariate logistic regression,and then a nomogram model was established.Results The results of LASSO regression and multivariate logistic regression indicated that embedded depth of gestational sac in cesarean scar more than 1.13 cm,convexity of gestational sac,rich blood supply(Adler degree Ⅱ-Ⅲ),and pre-curettage serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG)more than 33 063.50 U/L were all independent risk factors for retained CSP after curettage(all P<0.05).The calibration curve of nomogram predictive model established based on the above indexes was basically consistent with the ideal curve,and the model had good clinical benefits.Conclusion The established nomogram predictive model had good predictive ability for retained CSP after curettage.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the surgical method and clinical effect of O-arm navigation mini-open burring for osteoid osteoma.Methods:Eighteen patients with osteoid osteoma were treated with O-arm guided grinding drill from June 2021 to May 2022, including 15 males and 3 females, the age was (18.4 ±10.9) years (range 2 to 44 years), and the course of disease ranged from 1 week to 3 years (mean 14.2 months). The lesions sites included 6 cases of proximal femur, 3 cases of distal femur, 4 cases of proximal tibia, 1 case of distal tibia, 2 cases of proximal fibula and 1 case of distal and proximal humerus. During the operation, the O-arm navigation was used to determine the location of the focus, the muscle and soft tissue was peeled off to the bone surface through a 1-4 cm small incision, the channel retractor was placed, and the burr was registered as a navigation recognition device to gradually remove the bone on the surface of the tumor nest, and the tumor nest was scraped with a curette for pathological examination; according to the navigation image, the focus was enlarged removed with burr and the grinding range was confirmed by the O-arm X-ray machine before the end of the operation. The patients were followed up for 6 to 15 months (mean 9.5 months). CT scans were performed before and after surgery for imaging comparison in order to figure out whether it had residual lesions or recurrence. The visual analogue score (VAS) of pain was used as a parameter for evaluating the clinical efficacy.Results:The operation time of 18 cases was 40-175 min, with an average of 89.3 min. The time required to establish navigation image was 18.0 ±4.1 min (range 13 ~ 22 min). The length of the incision was 2.7±1.1 cm (range 1-4 cm). All patients achieved complete curettage of the lesions, and osteoid osteoma was confirmed by pathology after operation. All the patients could move to the ground 24 hours after operation, and the pain was significantly relieved from 3 to 7 d after operation, and the pain almost disappeared 3 months after operation. The VAS score of 18 cases was 5.33±1.24 before surgery, 2.79±1.32 on the 3rd day, 1.86±1.21 on the 7th day, 0.86±0.93 on the 1st month, 0.33±0.48 on the 3rd month, and 0.09±0.29 on the 6th month after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=58.50, P<0.001). There were no serious complications during and after operation, and the success rate of treatment (no recurrence of symptoms, no residual recurrence of imaging lesions, no serious complications after operation) was 100%. Conclusion:Treatment of osteoid osteoma with mini-open excision using burrs under the navigation of O-arm is a simple, safe, minimally invasive and efficient technique. Intraoperative precise positioning and the use of burr with navigation to remove a larger area than the tumor nest are the keys to successful treatment.
RESUMO
This paper aims to describe a case of endodontic treatment associated with surgical treatment with apical curettage, apicectomy and transsurgical filling of a right upper lateral incisor with extensive periapical lesion. The patient attended the dental office reporting pain, facial swelling and fever. On clinical examination, an increase in extra and intra-oral volume was observed, affecting the bottom of the right upper sulcus; there was a negative response to the sensitivity test on tooth 12. The periapical radiograph showed the presence of an extensive periapical lesion involving the apices of teeth 11 and 12. In light of these findings, conventional endodontic treatment was chosen. The chemical-mechanical preparation was performed with X1-Blue mechanized files associated with 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and, after three changes of intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide, exudation through the canal persisted. Therefore, a periapical surgery was performed with curettage of the lesion, apicectomy and transsurgical obturation associated with AH Plus sealer. After 7 months of follow-up, complete regression of the periapical lesion was observed. In view of the limitations, the success of this case can be attributed to the association of endodontic treatment with the chosen surgical technique, since a repair of the periapical bone radiolucency was observed.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo descrever um caso de tratamento endodôntico associado ao tratamento cirúrgico com curetagem apical, apicetomia e obturação transcirúrgica de um incisivo lateral superior direito com extensa lesão periapical. Paciente compareceu ao consultório odontológico relatando dor, inchaço na face e febre. Ao exame clínico observou-se um aumento de volume extra e intra-oral acometendo o fundo de sulco superior direito; obteve-se resposta negativa ao teste de sensibilidade no dente 12. A radiografia periapical mostrou a presença de extensa lesão periapical envolvendo os ápices dos dentes 11 e 12. Diante dos achados optou-se pelo tratamento endodôntico convencional. O preparo químico-mecânico foi realizado com as limas mecanizadas X1-Blue associado com hipoclorito de sódio a 2,5% e, após três trocas de medicação intracanal com hidróxido de cálcio, a exsudação via canal persistia. Diante disso, foi realizada uma cirurgia periapical com curetagem da lesão, apicetomia e obturação transcirúrgica associada com o cimento AH Plus. Após 7 meses de acompanhamento foi observado a regressão completa da lesão periapical. Diante das limitações, o sucesso desse caso pode ser atribuído à associação do tratamento endodôntico com a técnica cirúrgica escolhida, visto que foi observado um reparo da radiotransparência óssea periapical.
El objetivo de este artículo es describir un caso de tratamiento endodóntico asociado a tratamiento quirúrgico con curetaje apical, apicetomía y obturación transquirúrgica de un incisivo lateral superior derecho con lesión periapical extensa. El paciente acudió a la clínica dental refiriendo dolor, hinchazón en la cara y fiebre. El examen clínico mostró un aumento de volumen extra e intraoral que afectaba al surco superior derecho, con una respuesta negativa a la prueba de sensibilidad en el diente 12. La radiografía periapical mostró la presencia de una extensa lesión periapical que afectaba a los ápices de los dientes 11 y 12. Se optó por un tratamiento endodóntico convencional. La preparación químico-mecánica se realizó con las limas mecanizadas X1-Blue asociadas a hipoclorito sódico al 2,5% y, tras tres cambios de medicación intracanal con hidróxido de calcio, persistía la exudación a través del conducto. Por lo tanto, se realizó una cirugía periapical con curetaje de la lesión, apicetomía y obturación transquirúrgica asociada a cemento AH Plus. Tras 7 meses de seguimiento, se observó una regresión completa de la lesión periapical. Dadas las limitaciones, el éxito de este caso puede atribuirse a la asociación del tratamiento endodóntico con la técnica quirúrgica elegida, ya que se observó una reparación de la radiotransparencia ósea periapical.
RESUMO
Resumen ANTECEDENTE: La neoplasia trofoblástica gestacional forma parte del grupo de afecciones derivadas de la proliferación anómala del trofoblasto con capacidad para invasión y metástasis. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 42 años, asintomática, con sospecha ecográfica de mola hidatiforme. El legrado uterino y el estudio anatomopatológico confirmaron el diagnóstico de mola hidatiforme completa. Con la cuantificación consecutiva de tres elevaciones de la β-HCG se diagnosticó: neoplasia trofoblástica gestacional. Se estadificó en estadio I, bajo riesgo y ante el deseo genésico satisfecho la paciente aceptó la histerectomía más salpingectomía bilateral. En el seguimiento posterior la paciente se encontró asintomática, con determinaciones seriadas de b-HCG negativa y ecografías vaginales sin hallazgos. CONCLUSIÓN: La histerectomía con salpingectomía bilateral puede ser el tratamiento definitivo en casos seleccionados de neoplasia trofoblástica. La evidencia disponible es escasa, por lo que es necesario seguir investigando en este campo.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia is one of a group of conditions resulting from abnormal trophoblast proliferation with capacity for invasion and metastasis. CLINICAL CASE: 42-year-old asymptomatic patient with ultrasound suspicion of hydatidiform mole. Uterine curettage and anatomopathological study confirmed the diagnosis of complete hydatidiform mole. With the consecutive quantification of three elevations of β-HCG a diagnosis of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia was made. It was staged as stage I, low-risk, and the patient agreed to hysterectomy plus bilateral salpingectomy. At subsequent follow-up the patient was found to be asymptomatic, with negative serial determinations of β-HCG and vaginal ultrasound scans without findings. CONCLUSION: Hysterectomy with bilateral salpingectomy may be the definitive treatment in selected cases of trophoblastic neoplasia. The available evidence is scarce and further research is needed in this field.
RESUMO
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of using an ionized monocalcium phosphate and enamelin derivatives (IMP+ED) based mouthwash for the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity (DH) after scaling and root planing (SRP). 47 patients who reported DH after SRP treatment were included in this prospective cohort study. The Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale (SCASS) was applied to classify their degree of pain in mild, moderate or intense at two times: after SRP (T0), and after one month of using a IMP+ED-based mouthwash (T1). The McNemar-Bowker test was used to compare the correlated proportions between both times (p<0.05). After the SRP therapy (T0), all the sample members reported pain distributed in the following manner: 12.8% were mild, 27.6% moderate, and 59.6% intense. At one month since treatment and with the use of the IMP+ED-based mouthwash (T1), the distribution of pain levels changed to 83% mild, 12.8% moderate, and 4.3% intense, this change was statistically significant (p<0.001). IMP+ED-based mouthwash produces a positive effect in reducing painful responses caused by exposure of the dentin tubules to the oral environment after SRP therapy.
Resumen El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la efectividad de un enjuague bucal a base de fosfato monocálcico ionizado y derivados de enamelina (FCI+DE) para el tratamiento de hipersensibilidad dentinaria (HD) posterior al tratamiento de raspado y alisado radicular (RAR). 47 pacientes que reportaron tener HD posterior al tratamiento de RAR fueron incluidos en este estudio prospectivo de cohorte. Con el fin de clasificar la HD de los pacientes en leve, moderada o intensa se utilizó la Escala de Sensiblidad al Aire Frío de Schiff (ESAFS). Los pacientes fueron evaluados después del tratamiento de RAR (T0) y posterior al uso de un enjuague bucal basado en FCI+DE (T1). Para comparar las proporciones correlacionadas se utilizó la prueba de McNemar-Bowker (p<0.05). La distribución del dolor de los pacientes posterior al tratamiento de RAR (T0) fue la siguiente: 12.8% fueron leves, 27.6% moderado, and 59.6% intenso. Un mes después del uso del enjuague buccal basado en FCI+DE (T1) la distribución en los niveles de dolor cambio a 83% leve, 12.8% moderado, and 4.3% intenso, este cambio fue estadísticamente significativo (p<0.001). El uso del enjuague bucal basado en FCI+DE produce una reducción significativa a la respuesta de dolor causada por la exposición de la dentina al ambiente oral como consecuencia del tratamiento de RAR.

Resumen: Introducción: la fascitis o fasciosis plantar es una causa de dolor en el pie, en la cual frecuentemente se encuentran casos resistentes al tratamiento conservador. La cirugía queda reservada para los pacientes que no han respondido a tratamientos conservadores, ondas de choque o infiltraciones con corticosteroides. El objetivo de este trabajo es realizar una revisión sistemática de la literatura disponible y describir una técnica para el tratamiento de la fascitis o fasciosis plantar consistente en el rasgado longitudinal de la aponeurosis plantar asistido con ecografía. Material y métodos: se realizó una búsqueda sistemática de publicaciones previas sobre la tenotomía longitudinal en el tratamiento de la fascitis plantar. Se incluyeron los encabezados de temas médicos o MeSH (Medical subjects headings por sus siglas en inglés), en inglés: Curettage, Tenotomy y Plantar Fasciitis. La búsqueda electrónica incluyó las bases de datos de PubMed, Embase, Cochrane central register of controlled trials, Trip database y National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE por sus siglas en inglés). Se realizó una descripción detallada de la técnica con la intención de que pueda ser reproducida. Conclusión: la tenotomía longitudinal representa una alternativa para el tratamiento de la fascitis plantar. Se basa en la extrapolación del conocimiento en el territorio Aquíleo con una base fisiopatológica de respaldo. Se trata de una técnica no invasiva que se puede realizar de forma ambulatoria y que permitiría la rápida incorporación del paciente a sus actividades. La tenotomía longitudinal podría evitar al paciente someterse a cirugías de mayor envergadura.
Abstract: Introduction: plantar fasciitis or fasciosis is a cause of foot pain with cases resistant to conservative treatment. Surgery is reserved for patients who have not responded to conservative treatment, shock waves, or corticosteroid injections. The aim of this publications is to carry out a systematic review of the available literature and to describe a specific technique for the treatment of plantar fasciosis consisting of the longitudinal tearing of the plantar aponeurosis assisted with ultrasound. Material and methods: a systematic search was carried out for previous publications on longitudinal tenotomy in the treatment of plantar fasciitis. The Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms «Curettage¼, «Tenotomy¼ and «Plantar Fasciitis¼ were included. The electronic search included PubMed, Embase, Cochrane central register of controlled trials, Trip database, and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) databases. A detailed description of the technique was included with the intention that it can be reproduced. Conclusion: longitudinal tenotomy represents an alternative for the treatment of plantar fasciitis. It is based on the extrapolation of knowledge in the Achilles tendon territory with a supporting pathophysiological basis. It is a non-invasive technique that can be performed on an outpatient basis and that would allow the rapid incorporation of the patient to their activities. Longitudinal tenotomy would prevent the patient from undergoing major surgeries.
RESUMO
Objective:To estimate risks of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅱ or worse (CINⅡ +) on loop electrosurgical excisional procedure (LEEP) specimens with the diagnosis of endocervical curettage (ECC) CINⅠ compared with biopsy CINⅠ, and also to investigate the hierarchical management scheme of ECC CINⅠ based on the relevant factors of CINⅡ + risk. Methods:(1) A retrospective computer-based research for subjects enrolled in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University from Jan. 2013 to Jun. 2021 was performed. The case group comprised women with an ECC CINⅠ (ECC results of CINⅠ with colposcopy-directed biopsy results ≤CINⅠ), and the control group comprised women with a biopsy CINⅠ (colposcopy-directed biopsy results of CINⅠ with negative ECC findings) were divided after LEEP surgery and diagnosis in the next three months. The clinical data of all patients before LEEP were analyzed, and the pathological diagnosis between two groups after LEEP was compared. (2) Variables, including age, cytology, high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV), ECC results, cervical transformation zone (TZ) and colposcopy impression, were included to describe the characteristics and compare the incidence of LEEP CINⅡ +. (3) Univariate analysis and Multivariate logistic regression method were used to analyze the related factors that affect the LEEP CINⅡ + in CINⅠ patients. Further, the specific risks caused by related factors and conduct a stratified study in LEEP CINⅡ + were analyzed. Results:(1) Overall, 2 581 women with ECC CINⅠ or biopsy CINⅠ diagnosis who underwent LEEP participated in the study with the mean age (43.6±9.5) years old. Chi square test found that the age and cytology of patients in ECC CINⅠ group were statistically different from those of biopsy CINⅠ group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in HR-HPV detection, TZ type and colposcopy impression between the two groups (all P>0.05). ECC CINⅠ comprised 957 women, with LEEP histopathology results revealing 288 (30.1%, 288/957) CINⅡ +, which was significantly higher than that of biopsy CINⅠ which was comprised 1 624 women, with LEEP histopathology results showing 333 (20.5%, 333/1 624) CINⅡ + ( χ2=30.31, P<0.001). (2) Compared by LEEP CINⅡ + with LEEP ≤CINⅠ group, there were no significant difference in the age, HR-HPV, colposcopy impression (all P>0.05); but there were significantly differences in cytology, ECC CINⅠ, type Ⅲ TZ (all P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that atypical squamous epithelial cells (ASC-H; OR=2.77, 95% CI: 2.04-3.77), high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and worse (HSIL +; OR=2.93, 95% CI: 2.24-3.81), ECC CINⅠ ( OR=1.89, 95% CI: 1.56-2.29) and type Ⅲ of TZ ( OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.45-2.11) were independent risk factors for LEEP CINⅡ + (all P<0.05). (3) When cytology was ≤low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) and ≥ASC-H, the detection rate of CINⅡ + in ECC CINⅠ was significantly higher than that of biopsy CINⅠ (all P<0.001). In ECC CINⅠ, the rate of CINⅡ + with cytology ≤LSIL was significantly lower than that in cytology ≥ASC-H (56.0% vs 25.9%; χ2=49.38, P<0.001). In type Ⅰ/Ⅱ of TZ, the detection rate of CINⅡ + between ECC CINⅠand biopsy CINⅠ had no significantly different; while in type Ⅲ of TZ, there was significantly different (72.7% vs 46.2%; χ2=4.02, P=0.045). In ECC CINⅠ, type Ⅲof TZ was significantly higher in the rate of CINⅡ + than that of type Ⅰ/Ⅱ of TZ (72.7% vs 21.7%; χ2=16.38, P<0.001). When cytology ≥ASC-H, type Ⅲ of TZ and colposcopy impression of HSIL were combined, the rate of CINⅡ + in ECC CINⅠ was 6/6 while 1/3 in biopsy CINⅠ. Conclusions:Cytology ≥ASC-H, ECC CINⅠ and type Ⅲ TZ are the risk factors of LEEP CINⅡ +. However, cytology ≥ASC-H is more valuable in predicting LEEP CINⅡ + than ECC CINⅠ. For patients with ECC CINⅠ to perform LEEP, it is recommended that cytology ≥ASC-H is taken as the first level stratification, and type Ⅲ TZ is taken as the second level stratification. The colposcopy impression of patients is recommended for a reference parameter.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of focused ultrasound ablation surgery (FUAS) combined with suction curettage for mass-type cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) and to analyze the influencing factors of vaginal bleeding and readmission.Methods:From January 2014 to December 2020, 88 patients with mass-type CSP were treated by FUAS combined with suction curettage in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. The clinical results and the influencing factors of bleeding and readmission for mass-type CSP were analyzed.Results:All the patients underwent one time FUAS treatment successfully. Immediately after FUAS treatment, color Doppler ultrasound showed obvious necrosis and no perfusion area in all lesions, and the blood flow in the mass-type CSP tissue significantly decreased. The median volume of blood loss in the procedure was 20 ml (range: 5-950 ml). Thirteen patients (15%, 13/88) had vaginal bleeding≥200 ml, and 15 patients (17%, 15/88) were hospitalized again. The average time for menstruation recovery was (28±8) days (range: 18-66 days). The average time needed for serum human chorionic gonadotropin-beta subunit to return to normal levels was (22±6) days (range: 7-59 days). The risk of large vaginal bleeding of patients were related to the blood supply of the mass ( OR=5.280, 95% CI: 1.335-20.858, P=0.018) and the largest diameter of the mass ( OR=1.060, 95% CI: 1.010-1.120, P=0.030). The risk of readmission were related to the largest diameter of the mass ( OR=1.055, 95% CI: 1.005-1.108, P=0.030) and the depth of the uterus cavity ( OR=1.583, 95% CI: 1.015-2.471, P=0.043). No serious complications such as intestinal and nerve injury occurred during and after FUAS treatment. Conclusions:FUAS combined with suction curettage is safe and effective in treating patients with mass-type CSP through this preliminary study. The volume of vaginal bleeding are associated with the blood supply of the mass and the largest diameter of the mass, the risk of readmission are related to the largest diameter of the mass and the depth of the uterus cavity.
RESUMO
@#Giant cell tumours of bone are benign but locally aggressive neoplasms involving the epi- and metaphysis of long bones. Tumours of the distal humeral epiphysis with cortical disruption and invasion into the joint and the soft tissues are rare and generally treated with wide resection and joint reconstruction. We present the case of a 19-year-old woman in whom such a tumour was successfully treated with intralesional curettage, high speed burring and autologous bone grafting. The patient underwent regular clinical and radiological follow-up. Ten years after the procedure she had no signs of tumour recurrence or degenerative changes, and she was pain free and had a normal elbow function.
RESUMO
Objetivos: evaluar el efecto de dexmedetomidina sublingual frente a dexmedetomidina vía nasal más remifentanilo -propofol con bomba de infusión en procedimientos ginecológicos. Métodos: ensayo clínico no controlado, doble ciego, prospectivo. 68 pacientes con criterios de inclusión dividas en 3 grupos, grupo A [dexmedetomidina sublingual a 0.75 ug/kg], grupo B [dexmedetomidina vía nasal a 0,9 gg/kg] y grupo C [control] más adición de remifentanil y propofol por bombas de infusión. Análisis estadístico de variables cualitativas con chi cuadrado, variables cuantitativas de distribución libre se usó Kruskal-Wallis y distribución normal Anova. Nivel de confianza del 95 % y margen de error del 9 %. Resultados: edad con un rango de 30 a 32 años, la dosis de inicio y sostén tanto del remifentanilo y propofol se disminuyó hasta la mitad comparada con el grupo control, a predominio en el grupo A. Con poca variabilidad en los parámetros hemodinámicos sin repercusión clínica. Efectos adversos más frecuentes como depresión respiratoria en el grupo control, no se observó analgesia con el uso de dexmedetomidina. Y con menor tiempo de estancia en salas de recuperación en pacientes que se administró dexmedetomidina vía nasal. Conclusiones: la administración sublingual es superior con la nasal debido al menor requerimiento de propofol, menos cambios en la presión sanguínea media, sin efectos adversos que se puedan manejar, con mayor facilidad en su administración. Aunque la administración nasal produce un despertar más rápido y mejor control de la frecuencia cardiaca.
Objectives: to evaluate the effect of sublingual dexmedetomidine versus nasal dexmedetomidine plus remifentanil-propofol infusion pump in gynecological procedures. Methods: Uncontrolled, double-blind, prospective clinical trial. 68 patients with inclusion criteria were divided into 3 groups, group A [sublingual dexmedetomidine at 0.75 ug/kg], group B [nasal dexmedetomidine at 0.9 ug/kg] and group C [control] plus the addition of remifentanil and propofol by infusion pumps. Statistical analysis of qualitative variables with chi- square, quantitative variables with free distribution used Kruskal-Wallis and normal distribution Anova. Confidence level of 95% and margin of error of 9%. Results: age with a range of 30 to 32 years, the starting and maintenance dose of both remifentanil and propofol was halved compared to the control group, mainly in group A. With little variability in hemodynamic parameters without clinical repercussion. The most frequent adverse effects were respiratory depression in the control group, no analgesia was observed with the use of dexmedetomidine. And with a shorter stay in recovery rooms in patients who received nasal dexmedetomidine. Conclusions: sublingual administration is superior to nasal due to the lower requirement of propofol, less changes in mean blood pressure, with no adverse effects that can be managed, and with greater ease of administration. Although nasal administration produces a faster awakening and better control of heart rate.
