ABSTRACT
Introducción La cirugía radioguiada emplea fuentes radioactivas para identificar y extirpar lesiones de difícil localización. Los tumores mesenquimales constituyen un grupo heterogéneo de neoplasias derivados del mesodermo, incluyendo lesiones benignas y sarcomas malignos. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la capacidad de la semilla radioactiva de 125I para guiar la localización intraoperatoria de tumores mesenquimales, analizando sus tasas de complicación y evaluando los márgenes de las piezas quirúrgicas recuperadas. Métodos Estudio observacional retrospectivo de todos los pacientes consecutivos sometidos a cirugía radioguiada de un tumor mesenquimal con semilla radioactiva de 125I desde enero de 2012 hasta enero de 2020 en un centro de referencia terciario en España. La semilla fue insertada mediante punción percutánea guiada con ecografía o tomografía computarizada de forma ambulatoria. Resultados Se extirparon 15 lesiones en 11 cirugías a 11 pacientes, recuperando todas las lesiones marcadas (100%) con semilla de 125I. Las lesiones incluyeron áreas de fibrosis benigna (26,7%), angiofibroma celular (6,7%), tumor desmoide (20%), tumor fibroso solitario (13,3%), condrosarcoma (6,7%) y sarcoma pleomórfico (26,7%), con una tasa elevada de tumores recurrentes (60%). Solo hubo una complicación (6,7%) por caída de la semilla dentro del lecho quirúrgico. Según la clasificación de la Union for International Cancer Control de tumor residual, el 80% de las lesiones resultaron en una resección R0, el 6,7% fueron una resección R1 y el 13,3% fueron una resección R2. Conclusión La cirugía radioguiada fue una técnica precisa para la extirpación de tumores mesenquimales de difícil localización (AU)
Introduction Radioguided surgery uses radioactive substances to identify and remove hard-to-locate lesions. Mesenchymal tumors constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms derived from the mesoderm, including benign lesions and malignant sarcomas. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of the 125I radioactive seed to guide intraoperative localization of mesenchymal tumors, analyzing its complication rates and evaluating the margins of the surgical specimens retrieved. Methods Retrospective observational study of all consecutive patients undergoing radioguided surgery of a mesenchymal tumor with a 125I radioactive seed from January 2012 to January 2020 at a tertiary referral center in Spain. The seed was inserted percutaneously guided by ultrasound or computed tomography on an outpatient setting. Results Fifteen lesions were removed in 11 surgeries on 11 patients, recovering all marked lesions (100%) with a 125I seed. The lesions included areas of benign fibrosis (26.7%), cellular angiofibroma (6.7%), desmoid tumor (20%), solitary fibrous tumor (13.3%), chondrosarcoma (6.7%), and pleomorphic sarcoma (26.7%), with a high rate of recurrent tumors (60%). There was only one complication (6.7%) due to the seed falling within the surgical bed. According to the UICC classification of residual tumor, 80% of the lesions resulted in an R0 resection, 6.7% were an R1 resection, and 13.3% were an R2 resection. Conclusion Radioguided surgery was a precise technique for the removal of hard-to-locate mesenchymal tumors (AU)

OBJECTIVES: The primary aim of this study was to identify the incisional hernia rate after temporary loop ileostomy closure. Secondary outcomes were determining the risk factors linked to this incisional hernia, which could improve the patient selection for mesh prophylaxis. METHODS: Retrospective cohort study of all consecutive patients with temporary loop ileostomy reversal through a peristomal incision from 1st January 2011 to 1st January 2017 at our centre. Data were extracted from electronic clinical records: baseline patient characteristics, surgical factors and postoperative events. CT scans performed during follow-up were precisely analysed. Survival analysis was applied to identify risk factors for hernia development. RESULTS: 129 patients were analysed of whom 15 (11.6%) developed an incisional hernia at previous ileostomy site. The median time for incisional hernia development was 11 months (IQR = 7-21) and the median follow-up time was 37 months (IQR = 22-57). The identified patient risk factors for hernia development in survival analysis were female sex, older age, higher Body Mass Index, clinically significant parastomal hernia, clinically detectable midline incisional hernia and major postoperative complications ranked as Clavien-Dindo grade III and IV. CONCLUSIONS: Incisional hernia after temporary loop ileostomy is a relevant problem that affects at least one in every ten patients. The previously cited risk factors might favour its development, therefore the use of a prophylactic mesh should be considered in those high-risk patients.
