RESUMO

Objetivo:

Avaliar por meio da Tomografia Computadorizada singleslice, alterações nas estruturas do espaço mastigador, por disseminação loco-regional das neoplasias malignas originárias da loja tonsilar, trígono retromolar, seio maxilar e nasofaringe; correlacionar a presença de trismo com os achados tomográficos e dimensões do tumor. Material e

métodos:

foram selecionados prontuários de pacientes portadores de tumores malignos envolvendo as 4 regiões a serem estudadas, junto aos arquivos do Hospital Heliópolis. Foram excluídos os pacientes submetidos a terapêutica antineoplásica prévia ou com doenças inflamatórias ou infeciosas locais. Os prontuários foram revisados por um único examinador, onde foram coletadas informações relativas a idade, gênero, localização do tumor primário, tempo de evolução da doença, estadiamento do tumor e presença ou ausência de trismo. Após a administração do meio de contraste iodado, o protocolo de aquisição de imagens tomográficas foi de cortes axiais de 3mm de espessura, aquisições coronais foram feitas quando necessário. A análise das imagens foi feita por dois examinadores médicos, residentes do 3° de Radiologia médica, em momentos distintos, sem o conhecimento prévio das informações clínicas. Na avaliação do EM, os achados foram transcritos para uma planilha específica, considerando a presença ou ausência dos seguintes itens simetria com o EM contralateral, obliteração do plano gorduroso, do trígono retromolar e do espaço faríngeo, edema e/ou atrofia dos músculos pterigoideos medial e lateral, destruição do ramo da mandíbula.

ABSTRACT

Objective:

Evaluate by computed tomography (CT) singleslice changes in the structures of the masticator space, for loco-regional dissemination of malignancies originating in the tonsil, retromolar area, maxillary sinus and nasopharynx to correlate the CT findings with trismus and the tumor dimensions. Material and

Methods:

The medical records of patients with malignant tumors involving the four regions to be studied were selected from the archives of the Heliopolis Hospital. Patients submited previously to antineoplastic therapy or with local inflammatory or infectious diseases were excluded. The medical records were reviewed by a single examiner, where information was collected on age, gender, tumor location, disease evolution, tumor stage, and the presence or absence of trismus. After administration of iodinated contrast media, the protocol the image acquisition was axial slices 3mm, coronal acquisitions were made when necessary. The image analysis of the MS by two medical examiner residents in their 3rd year of Medical Radiology, at distinct moments , without prior knowledge of the clinical information. In the evaluation of the MS, the findings were transcribed to a specific worksheet, considering the presence or absence of the following items symmetry with the contralateral MS, obliteration of the fat plane of the retromolar trigone and the pharyngeal space, edema, and/or the atrophy of the medial and lateral pterygoid muscles, and destruction of the mandibular ramus.

Results:

According to the adopted criteria for trismus in this study, the presence of trismus was observed in 10 patients. The association between tumor size and trismus shows that 90% of patients present size T4, while this percentage is 43% in patients without trismus. Analyzing in terms of odds ratios, the study showed that patients with T4 sized tumors had a chance of developing trismus 11.6 times greater than patients with T0 to T3 sized tumors.
