ABSTRACT
Abstract Introduction Sinusitis is a common morbidity in general population, however little is known about its occurrence in severely immunocompromised patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Objective The aim of the study was to analyze the literature concerning sinusitis in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Methods An electronic database search was performed with the objective of identifying all original trials examining sinusitis in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. The search was limited to English-language publications. Results Twenty five studies, published between 1985 and 2015 were identified, none of them being a randomized clinical trial. They reported on 31–955 patients, discussing different issues i.e. value of pretransplant sinonasal evaluation and its impact on post-transplant morbidity and mortality, treatment, risk factors analysis. Conclusion Results from analyzed studies yielded inconsistent results. Nevertheless, some recommendations for good practice could be made. First, it seems advisable to screen all patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with Computed Tomography (CT) prior to procedure. Second, patients with symptoms of sinusitis should be treated before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), preferably with conservative medical approach. Third, patients who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation should be monitored closely for sinusitis, especially in the early period after transplantation.
RESUMO
Resumo Introdução A sinusite é uma doença comum na população em geral, porém pouco se sabe sobre a sua ocorrência em pacientes gravemente imunocomprometidos submetidos a transplante alogênico de células-tronco hematopoiéticas. Objetivo O objetivo do estudo foi analisar a literatura sobre sinusite em pacientes submetidos a transplante alogênico de medula óssea. Método Uma busca na base de dados eletrônica foi realizada com o objetivo de identificar todos os artigos originais que investigaram sinusite em receptores de transplante alogênico de células-tronco hematopoiéticas. A busca foi limitada a publicações em língua inglesa. Resultados Foram identificados 25 estudos, publicados entre 1985 e 2015, sendo que nenhum deles era um ensaio clínico randomizado. Eles incluíram 31-955 pacientes, discutindo diferentes questões, ou seja, valor da avaliação sinonasal pré-transplante e seu impacto na morbidade e mortalidade pós-transplante, tratamento, análise de fatores de risco. Conclusão Os resultados dos estudos analisados produziram resultados inconsistentes. No entanto, algumas recomendações para boas práticas poderiam ser feitas. Em primeiro lugar, parece aconselhável avaliar todos os pacientes submetidos a transplante alogênico de hematopoiéticas com tomografia computadorizada (TC) antes do procedimento. Em segundo lugar, os pacientes com sintomas de sinusite devem ser tratados antes de um Transplante de Células-Tronco Hematopoiéticas (TCTH), de preferência com abordagem clínica conservadora. Em terceiro lugar, os pacientes que se submeteram a TCTH devem ser cuidadosamente monitorizados para sinusite, especialmente no período inicial após o transplante.
