ABSTRACT

SUMMARY:

Extra-visceral retroperitoneal echinococcosis (EVRE), represents an infrequent condition, even in endemic areas. Its best treatment option is surgery. The aim of this study was to determine postoperative morbidity (POM) and recurrence in patients with EVRE, surgically treated. Case series with follow-up of patients with EVRE undergoing surgery consecutively at RedSalud Mayor Temuco Clinic, between 2008 and 2019. The outcome variables were POM and recurrence. Other variables of interest were cyst diameter, surgical time, and hospital stay. Descriptive statistics was used. In this study, 12 patients (75.0 % male), with a median age of 46 years, were treated. The 58.3 % of cases were primary retroperitoneal cysts. The median of cyst diameter, surgical time, and hospital stay were 15 cm, 95 min, and 4 days respectively. The most frequent type of resection was total cystectomy (58.3 %). MPO was 8.3 % (there was urinary infection in one patient). No reoperations were necessary. There was no operative mortality. With a median follow-up of 90 months, a recurrence of 8.3 % was verified (one case). The results achieved, in terms of POM and recurrence were similar to other series.
RESUMEN
RESUMEN La equinococosis retroperitoneal extravisceral (EREV), representa una condición poco frecuente, incluso en áreas endémicas. Su mejor opción de tratamiento es la cirugía. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar morbilidad postoperatoria (MOP) y recurrencia de pacientes con EREV tratados quirúrgicamente. Serie de casos con seguimiento de pacientes con EREV intervenidos de forma consecutiva en Clínica RedSalud Mayor Temuco, entre 2008 y 2019. Las variables resultado fueron POM y recurrencia. Otras variables de interés fueron diámetro del quiste, tiempo quirúrgico y estancia hospitalaria. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva. Se trató a 12 pacientes (75,0 % hombres), con una mediana de edad de 46 años. El 58,3 % de los casos fueron quistes retroperitoneales primarios. La mediana del diámetro del quiste, tiempo quirúrgico y estancia hospitalaria fueron 15 cm, 95 min y 4 días, respectivamente. El tipo de resección más frecuente fue la quistectomía total (58,3 %). La MPO fue 8,3 % (infección urinaria en un paciente). No hubo reintervenciones ni mortalidad operatoria. Con una mediana de seguimiento de 90 meses, se verificó una recurrencia de 8,3 % (un caso). Los resultados obtenidos, en cuanto a MPO y recurrencia, son similares a otras series.
