ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Factors predicting remission after thymectomy for myasthenia gravis are not well known. AIM: To analyze the clinical evolution of the patients after this intervention and discuss about predictors of response. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed all clinical data of thymectomies in myasthenia gravis patients performed at our hospital between 2006 from 2016. Using the MGFA-PIS classification, «complete stable remission¼, «pharmacologic remission¼, «minimal manifestations¼ and «improved¼ were defined as «good clinical outcome¼, and «unchanged¼, «worse¼, «exacerbation¼ or «died¼, as «poor clinical outcome¼. RESULTS: In 46 consecutive thymectomies for myasthenia gravis, women comprised 71.7%. Median age was 37 years and 10.9% had concomitant autoimmune disorders associated. Thymoma (23.96%) was more frequent in older patients (53 ± 20 vs 33 ± 24 years) and men (54.5% vs 18.8%). A year after thymectomy, 28.2% of patients were in poor clinical outcome group and 54.3% had good clinical outcome. On univariate analysis, thymomatous myasthenia was associated with poor clinical outcome a year after surgical intervention. After ten years of follow-up, 9.8% reached complete stable remission, a total of 32 patients (78%) had a favourable outcome and thymoma was not correlated. CONCLUSION: Thymectomy is considered an effective treatment for myasthenia gravis but the benefit is not immediate. The presence of thymoma may determine a worse initial clinical response following thymectomy in patients with myasthenia gravis.


TITLE: Timectomía en miastenia grave timomatosa y no timomatosa: análisis de una cohorte de 46 pacientes.Introducción. En la actualidad, los factores predictores de remisión de la enfermedad en la miastenia grave tras una timectomía no están claramente establecidos. Objetivo. Analizar la evolución clínica de los pacientes tras esta intervención y abordar los posibles determinantes pronósticos. Pacientes y métodos. Se analizaron retrospectivamente los registros de pacientes con miastenia grave timectomizados en nuestro centro entre 2006 y 2016. Se utilizó la escala Miasthenya Gravis Foundation of America-Post Intervention Status agrupando las categorías «remisión completa estable¼, «remisión farmacológica¼, «manifestaciones mínimas¼ y «mejoría¼ como «buen resultado clínico¼, y las categorías «sin cambios¼, «empeoramiento¼, «exacerbación¼ y «muerte¼, como «mal resultado clínico¼. Resultados. Se analizaron 46 timectomías de pacientes con miastenia grave, un 71,7% mujeres. La mediana de edad era de 37 años y el 10,9% asociaba enfermedades autoinmunes. El timoma (23,9%) fue más frecuentes en los varones (54,5% frente a 18,8%) y a mayor edad (53 ± 20 frente a 33 ± 24 años). Un año después de la timectomía, el 28,2% se encontraba en el grupo de mal resultado clínico, y un 54,3%, en el de buen resultado clínico. En el análisis univariante, el timoma se asoció a peor resultado clínico al año de la intervención. Tras diez años de seguimiento, 32 pacientes (78%) alcanzaron un buen resultado clínico, un 9,8% en remisión completa estable, y el timoma no se correlacionó como factor de mal pronóstico. Conclusión. La timectomía se considera un tratamiento efectivo, pero sin beneficio inmediato. La presencia de timoma podría determinar una respuesta clínica inicial peor tras la realización de una timectomía en pacientes con miastenia grave.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: los tumores neurogénicos son las masas del mediastino posterior más frecuentes. Aproximadamente el 10% de los localizados en el mediastino posterior tienen un componente intraespinal, a través de algún foramen vertebral. Siendo conocidos como tumores de Dumbbell o en reloj de arena. Reporte de caso: paciente con diagnóstico casual de tumor neurogénico en mediastino posterior con componente intraespinal (tumor en reloj de arena o Dumbell). El tratamiento quirúrgico se realizó conjuntamente en un mismo acto por parte del servicio de Neurocirugía y Cirugía Torácica. En un primer tiempo se llevó a cabo la laminectomía posterior, identificación de raíz dorsal izquierda afecta, ligadura y sección. Posteriormente, mediante videotoracoscopia por puerto único se realizó resección del tumor neurogénico por plano libre de afectación tumoral. Conclusión: el tratamiento quirúrgico en un solo acto de los tumores mediastínicos con componente intraespinal, ha demostrado ser seguro, eficaz y no aumentar las complicaciones intraoperatorias o postoperatoria


Introduction: neurogenic tumors are the most frequent masses of the posterior mediastinum. Approximately 10% of those located in the posterior mediastinum have an intraspinal component, through some vertebral foramen. They are known as dumbbell tumors. Clinical case: Patient with a diagnosis of neurogenic tumor in the posterior mediastinum with intraspinal component (dumbbell tumor). Surgical treatment was performed jointly in the same act by the Neurosurgery and Thoracic Surgery service. In a first time the posterior laminectomy, identification of left dorsal root affected, ligation and section was carried out. Subsequently, by single port video-assisted thoracoscopy, the neurogenic tumor was resected through a free plane of tumor involvement. Conclusion: surgical treatment in a single act of mediastinal tumors with intraspinal component has been shown to be safe, effective and does not increase intraoperative or postoperative complications

ABSTRACT

FUNDAMENTO: El pectus excavatum (PE) constituye ladeformación congénita más frecuente de la pared torácica, conimportantes consecuencias psicológicas y estéticas, además de funcionales.Hasta ahora la técnica más utilizada era la de Ravitch,consistente en la realización de condrectomías subpericóndricasbilaterales de los cartílagos afectos y osteotomías esternales transversalesy posterior estabilización.OBJETIVOS: Presentar nuestra experiencia en el tratamientoquirúrgico del pectus excavatum, siguiendo la técnica de correcciónmínimamente invasiva descrita por Nuss.MATERIALYMÉTODOS: A todos los pacientes se les realizóTAC de tórax con índices de Haller superiores a 3,25. Bajo anestesiageneral y mediante videotoracoscopia se colocó una barra estabilizadorasubesternal, realizando el abordaje mediante dos incisioneslaterales. Los extremos de la barra se fijaron medianteestabilizadores.RESULTADOS: Se trataron 11 pacientes (9 varones, 2 mujeres,rango de edad 10-31 años). El motivo de la intervención fue lacorrección estética. No se presentaron complicaciones intra ni postoperatoriasimportantes y no hubo ninguna muerte. El tiempooperatorio medio fue 58,6 min, el inicio de la deambulación mediafue 4,3 días y la estancia hospitalaria postoperatoria fue 7,2 días(tiempos menores que con la técnica de Ravitch). La complicaciónmás frecuente fue el dolor postoperatorio, bien controlado conanalgesia. Un paciente presentó intolerancia a la barra, siendonecesaria extraerla al año. En el 91% de nuestros casos se obtuvieronunos excelentes resultados estéticos.CONCLUSIONES: Consideramos que la técnica de Nussmínimamente invasiva debe de ser el procedimiento de elecciónpara corregir el pectus excavatum


THEORY: The pectus excavatum (PE) is the most frequentcongenital deformation of the thoracic wall, with major psychologicaland aesthetic, aside from functional, consequences. Until now,the Ravitch technique has been used, which consists of a bilateral,subperichondrial chondrectomy of the affected cartilage andtransverse, sternal osteotomy and subsequent stabilisation.OBJECTIVES: To present our experience in the surgicaltreatment of the pectus excavatum, using the minimally invasivecorrection technique described by Nuss.MATERIAL AND METHODS: A thoracic CAT-scan was performedon all the patients with a Haller indexes above to 3.25.Under general anaesthesia and using a video-thoracoscope, a stabilisingbar was placed under the sternum, approaching the areawith two lateral incisions. The ends of the bar were fixed with stabilisers.RESULTS: 11 patients were treated (9 men, 2 women, agerange 10-31 years of age). The intervention was carried out for aestheticreasons. There were no major complications during or afterthe intervention; there were no deaths. The average operating timewas 58.6 min; on average, patients were up within 4.3 days and thepostoperative hospital stay was 7.2 days (lower figures that withthe Ravitch technique). The most frequent complication was postoperativepain, which was well controlled with analgesics. Onepatient was unable to tolerate the bar; it had to be removed afterone year. In 91% of the cases excellent aesthetic results wereobtained.CONCLUSIONS:We consider that the Nuss technique is minimallyinvassive and should be the procedure of choice in the correctionof the pectus excavatum

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Traditionally, thymectomy for myasthenia gravis has been performed using either a transcervical approach or a median sternotomy. However, excision of the thymic tissue by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is less aggressive and recovery is faster. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness and outcomes of video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Over the past 10 years, we have performed 25 video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomies on patients with myasthenia gravis at our unit. This study included 16 women and 9 men, with a mean age of 48.1 years (range, 14-74 years). Right-side (22 cases) or left-side (3 cases) thoracoscopic surgery was performed, with a mean intervention time of 110 minutes (range, 60-193 minutes). RESULTS: No patient required assisted ventilation for more than 4 hours and the maximum stay in intensive care was less than 24 hours. Complications from surgery included 3 cases of contralateral pneumothorax, 1 pleural effusion, and 2 intraoperative hemorrhages from the thymic vein, all of which were resolved by video-assisted thoracoscopy. Likewise, 3 cases required conversion (due to hemorrhaging in 2 patients and technical difficulties in 1) and 2 required a second thoracoscopic intervention. No deaths occurred and clinical outcome was excellent in 11 cases (medical treatment no longer required), good in 10 (reduced medical treatment), and poor in 4 (no changes). CONCLUSIONS: Video-assisted thoracoscopic thymectomy is effective in the treatment of myasthenia gravis and improves patient recovery. In addition, the excellent surgical view allows the thymectomy to be performed with absolute safety.

ABSTRACT

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation involving the lung is a rare hamartomatous condition that is usually diagnosed in the neonatal period. The presentation of this malformation in older patients is exceptional and usually manifests in a series of recurrent lung infections affecting a single lobe or segment. The treatment of choice is complete surgical exeresis. This report of 3 cases of late presentation focuses on the surgical approach used and the unusual manifestation of recurrent spontaneous pneumothoraces in 1 patient. The patients were females aged 15, 16, and 25 years with histories of various respiratory diseases (extrinsic asthma, recurrent pneumonias, and pneumothoraces). The patients were referred to us for surgery with suspected diagnoses that were different from the final diagnoses in all cases. All underwent diagnostic video-assisted thoracoscopy to explore the affected hemothorax, and definitive treatment was possible during the procedure for 2 patients (a lobectomy and an atypical segmentectomy) by video-assisted surgery. The third patient underwent lobectomy by lateral thoracotomy after exploratory video-assisted thoracoscopy. Short- and long-term outcomes were excellent for all 3 patients.

ABSTRACT

Solitary fibrous tumors of the pleura are rare, with unpredictable clinical manifestations. By the time of diagnosis, the size and consistency of the tumor usually preclude the use of minimally invasive surgical techniques. We present a case of a 34-year-old male with a solitary fibrous tumor of the visceral pleura masquerading as a mediastinal tumor. The tumor was removed by video-assisted thoracic surgery.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: La hiperhidrosis palmar primaria localizada es un trastorno en la producción del sudor que resulta social y laboralmente incapacitante. El propósito de este estudio es evaluar los resultados, complicaciones y grado de satisfacción de los pacientes con hiperhidrosis palmar primaria tratados con simpatectomía videotoracoscópica T2-T3 bilateral en el Servicio de Cirugía General y Torácica del Hospital Universitario Virgen Macarena de Sevilla. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Se ha realizado un estudio clínico prospectivo histórico de 226 simpatectomías torácicas. La muestra la componen 113 pacientes (47 varones y 66 mujeres) de 14 a 50 años años de edad con hiperhidrosis palmar y axilar primaria, en algunos severa. A todos ellos se les intervino bajo anestesia general practicándoseles simpatectomía videotoracoscópica T2-T3 bilateral. Se presenta un seguimiento mediante cuestionario en relación con la calidad de vida y grado de satisfacción pre y postoperatoria. Se han efectuado análisis de frecuencia y descriptivos de los datos obtenidos sobre la técnica quirúrgica, calidad de vida y cambios posteriores a la cirugía y una prueba no paramétrica de Wilcoxon para dos variables relacionadas para contrastar diferencias significativas entre la calidad de vida pre y postoperatoria con relación a la hiperhidrosis y sus complicaciones. RESULTADOS: El porcentaje de éxito terapéutico ha sido del 100 por ciento. La tasa de complicaciones del procedimiento fue del 14,2 por ciento e incluyó hemotórax en dos pacientes, hemoneumotórax en tres, derrame pleural en dos y mínima cámara aérea apical en 9. De los 106 pacientes a los que se les realizó seguimiento entre 6 y 12 meses mediante entrevista y cuestionario, un 67 por ciento de ellos desarrollaron sudación compensatoria. Un 95 por ciento de estos pacientes refirió mejoría de su calidad de vida, y un 4 por ciento no experimentó ningún cambio en ella, sobre todo al considerar la aparición de la sudación compensatoria. El 97,2 por ciento de los pacientes entrevistados respondieron afirmativamente a la cuestión de si se volverían a operar. CONCLUSIÓN: La simpatectomía videotoracoscópica es un método efectivo para el tratamiento de la hiperhidrosis palmar primaria con bajas tasas de morbilidad y nulas de mortalidad. A pesar de la aparición de cambios posteriores como la sudación compensatoria, presenta una alta tasa de satisfacción y mejora de la calidad de vida de los pacientes (AU)

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Primary palmar hyperhidrosis is a socially and occupationally debilitating disorder characterized by excessive sweating. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results, complications, and degree of satisfaction among patients who underwent video-assisted bilateral thoracoscopic sympathectomy of the second and third ganglia (T2-T3) to treat primary palmar hyperhidrosis at the Department of General and Thoracic Surgery of the Hospital Universitario Virgen Macarena in Seville, Spain. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A study of 226 thoracoscopic sympathectomies was undertaken based on case histories and a prospective pre- and postoperative questionnaire survey. The sample was composed of 113 patients (47 males and 66 females), ranging in age from 14 to 50 years, with primary palmar and axillary hyperhidrosis, in some cases severe. Bilateral video-assisted thoracoscopic T2-T3 sympathectomy was performed under general anesthesia in all cases. Follow up included a questionnaire on pre- and postoperative quality of life and degree of satisfaction. Descriptive statistics on the surgical procedure, quality of life, and postoperative changes were compiled and frequency analyzed. A nonparametric Wilcoxon test for paired variables was performed to contrast significant differences between pre- and postoperative quality of life related to hyperhidrosis and its complications. RESULTS: The therapeutic success rate was 100%. Complications were seen in 14.2% of the cases and included hemothorax in two, hemopneumothorax in three, pleural hemorrhage in two, and minimal apical airspace in nine. Of the 106 patients who were monitored over a period of 6 to 12 months through follow-up interviews and questionnaires, 67% developed compensatory sweating, 95% reported improvement in quality of life, and 4% experienced no change in quality of life, mainly because of the emergence of compensatory sweating. Of the patients interviewed, 97.2% said that they would undergo the operation again. CONCLUSION: Video-assisted thoracoscopic sympathectomy for the treatment of primary palmar hyperhidrosis is effective, with low rates of morbidity and no mortality. Despite the appearance of postoperative changes such as compensatory sweating, patient satisfaction with the procedure is high and their quality of life improves.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: Various approaches are used for the diagnosis and treatment of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPN) of unknown origin. New imaging techniques and nuclear medicine have provided more information about SPN, but surgical removal is still the most sensitive and specific way to obtain a correct analysis of the lesion. With video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS), a histological diagnosis can be obtained without resorting to thoracotomy. In the present study we describe our experience with the diagnosis and treatment of SPN using VATS. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From July 1992 through April 2001, 182 patients were operated on for SPN in our department. DESIGN: Retrospective study. Mean age: 59.2 years (12-78). Sex: 39 women and 143 men. Localization: Visual or instrumental exploration in 102 patients, with palpation in 52 cases and using a hookwire guided by preoperative computed tomography in 25 (with failure in 4 of those cases). Tissue was biopsied during surgery and when the lesion was malignant, oncological excision was performed during the same operation. RESULTS: A firm diagnosis was obtained by VATS for 178 patients (98.3%). For three other patients the surgeon had to take a needle biopsy (Tru-cut) during surgery, and in one case conversion to open surgery was necessary. Histopathology: hamartoma: 11; fibrous nodule: 10; bronchiolitis obliterans: 1; pneumoconiosis: 1; mesenchymal tumor: 3; inflammatory pseudotumor: 14; mucormycosis: 1; tuberculoma:17; lymphoma: 1; carcinoid tumor: 6; metastasis: 22; bronchogenic carcinoma: 95. Mortality was 0.55%, with 1 patient dying from massive pulmonary thromboembolism. Morbidity was 5%, from 9 minor complications. CONCLUSIONS: VATS is an effective approach, with low morbidity and mortality. We consider it to be the technique of choice for the diagnosis of all SPN and for the treatment of some, such as benign nodules and solitary metastases.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVOS: Varios tipos de estrategias se emplean para el diagnóstico y tratamiento de los nódulos pulmonares solitarios indeterminados (NPS). Las nuevas técnicas de imagen y de medicina nuclear parecen añadir más información a esta afección, pero aún es la exéresis quirúrgica el método más sensible y específico para obtener un correcto análisis de la lesión. Con la cirugía videotoracoscópica (CVT) se puede conseguir un diagnóstico histológico sin la necesidad de realizar una toracotomía. En este estudio se expone nuestra experiencia en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de los NPS con la CVT. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Desde julio de 1992 a abril de 2001 se ha intervenido a 182 pacientes afectados de NPS en nuestro servicio. Diseño: estudio retrospectivo. Edad media: 59,2 años (límites, 12-78). Sexo: un total de 39 mujeres y 143 varones. Localización: exploración visual o instrumental en 102 pacientes, con palpación en 52 casos y con arpón guiado por tomografía computarizada (TC) preoperatoriamente en 25 (cuatro de ellos fallaron). A todos ellos se les realizó una biopsia intraoperatoria y cuando la lesión fue maligna se les practicó una exéresis oncológica en la misma operación. RESULTADOS: Se ha obtenido un diagnóstico de certeza, por CVT en 178 pacientes (98,3 per cent). En otros 3 pacientes fue necesario practicar biopsia con aguja Tru-cut® durante la CVT y un caso más hubo de convertirse a cirugía abierta. Histopatología: hamartoma, 11; nódulo fibroso, 10; bronquiolitis obliterante, 1; neumoconiosis, 1; tumor mesenquimal, 3; seudotumor inflamatorio, 14; mucormicosis, 1; tuberculoma, 17; linfoma, 1; tumor carcinoide, 6; metástasis, 22, y carcinoma broncogénico, 95. Mortalidad: 0,55 per cent, un paciente por tromboembolia pulmonar masiva. Morbilidad: 5 per cent, nueve complicaciones menores. CONCLUSIONES: La CVT es un abordaje muy efectivo, con baja morbilidad y mortalidad, y en nuestra opinión debe ser la técnica de elección para el diagnóstico de todos los NPS y el tratamiento de algunos, como los nódulos benignos y las metástasis solitarias (AU)
