ABSTRACT

Considerable costs are associated with infertility treatment, but little evidence is available on the main drivers of treatment costs. This cost analysis investigated key costs for treatment with assisted reproductive technology (ART) and the proportion of costs attributed to the acquisition of recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) alfa originator for one fresh embryo transfer (ET) leading to a live birth in Spain, Norway, the UK, Germany, Denmark, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand. The total costs for one ART cycle with a fresh ET leading to a live birth varied between countries (€4108-€12,314). Costs for pregnancy and live birth were the major contributors in European countries, and the costs of oocyte retrieval, monitoring during ovarian stimulation, pregnancy, and live birth were the top contributors in the Asia-Pacific countries, included in this analysis. Acquisition costs for r-hFSH alfa originator contributed to only 5%-17% of the total costs of one ART cycle with one fresh ET leading to a live birth.

ABSTRACT

Objetivos. Revisar las complicaciones neurológicas por virus Influenza y las características clínico-epidemiológicas. Material y métodos. Estudio descriptivo, observacional, retrospectivo mediante revisión de historias clínicas de niños ingresados con complicaciones neurológicas por virus Influenza entre enero de 2013 y febrero de 2019. Resultados. Se incluyeron 14 pacientes (11 varones), el 85,7% con infección por Influenza A. La mediana de edad fue 2 años (3 meses-11 años). Tenían antecedentes neurológicos 3 (convulsiones febriles). El 64,3% asociaba fiebre, con una duración media de 2,15±2,3 días. Los síntomas neurológicos se presentaron el primer día de fiebre en 7 pacientes. La clínica neurológica fue: convulsión (11/14): 8 febriles y 3 afebriles, encefalopatía (1), cefalea (1) y meningismo (1). En cuanto a las convulsiones febriles, la mediana de edad fue de 3 años. Cuatro tenían más de 6 años. En el 75% la convulsión febril se produjo el primer día de fiebre y en 5 recurrieron en 24 horas. Se aisló Influenza A en el 82% de pacientes con convulsiones. Recibieron tratamiento con oseltamivir 6 pacientes. Ninguno ha presentado secuelas. Conclusiones. En nuestra muestra, el virus más frecuente fue el virus Influenza A, produciendo este la mayoría de las complicaciones a nivel neurológico, especialmente en varones en edad escolar. La complicación más frecuente fue la convulsión, la mayoría convulsiones febriles, aunque hasta en un 28% se presentó a una edad atípica. Al igual que en otras series, el virus Influenza se puede asociar a complicaciones graves como rombencefalitis. En la mayoría de los pacientes los exámenes complementarios fueron normales (AU)


Objectives. To review neurological complications due to influenza virus and clinical-epidemiological characteristics. Material and methods. Descriptive, observational, retrospective study by reviewing clinical records of children admitted with neurological complications due to influenza virus between January 2013-February 2019. Results. Fourteen patients were included (11 males), 85.7% with infection by Influenza A. Median age was 2 years (3 months-11 years). They had neurological history 3 (febrile seizures). The 64.3% associated fever, with a mean duration of 2.15±2.3 days. Neurological symptoms occurred on the first day of fever in 7 patients. The neurological clinic was: seizure (11/14): 8 febrile and 3 afebrile, encephalopathy (1), headache (1) and meningism (1). As for febrile seizures, the median age was 3 years. Four were older than 6 years old. In 75% the febrile seizure occurred on the first day of fever and in 5 they recurred within 24 hours. Influenza A was isolated in 82% of patients with seizures. Six patients were treated with oseltamivir. None of them presented sequelae. Conclusions. In our sample, the most frequent virus was the Influenza A virus, producing most of the neurological complications, especially in school-age males. The most frequent complication was the seizure, mostly febrile seizures; although up to 28% presented at an atypical age. As in other series, the Influenza virus can be associated to serious complications such as rhombencephalitis. In most of the patients, the complementary exams were normal (AU)

ABSTRACT

La perforación intestinal y la peritonitis secundaria causada por Ascaris lumbricoides, aunque es rara en nuestro medio, debe tenerse en cuenta en los pacientes con clínica compatible procedentes de áreas endémicas. Presentamos el caso de una niña rumana con un cuadro clínico de fiebre, vómitos y dolor abdominal de 15 días de evolución, con colecciones abdominales observadas en las pruebas de imagen, en las que se aprecia una infestación por A. lumbricoides tras la cirugía laparoscópica (AU)


Intestinal perforation with secondary peritonitis caused by Ascaris lumbricoides is rare in our environment. This entity should be taken into consideration in patients who come from endemic areas, and who have suggestive clinical manifestations. We report a case of a Rumanian girl with 15 days of fever, stomach pains and vomiting. Imaging studies evidenced abdominal collections in which Ascaris lumbricoides infestation was found through laparoscopic surgery (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Evaluar la incidencia de cáncer uterino en mujeres con cáncer de mama tratadas con tamoxifeno. Material y método: Evaluamos a 463 mujeres que se trataron con 20 mg/día de tamoxifeno por una cáncer de mama dependiente de hormonas, con un seguimiento de 6 años. Resultados: Detectamos 7 cánceres uterino s (1,55% de la población en estudio y 2,52/1.000 mujeres/año): 5 adenocarcinomas de endometrio, 1 tumor mulleriano mixto heterólogo y 1 sarcoma de la estroma endometrial. Sólo el crecimiento rápido de 10 que creíamos un mioma uterino detectado por ecografía nos permitió el diagnóstico del sarcoma de la estroma endometrial; los otros 6 tumores se detectaron por la aparición de hemorragia vaginal, a pesar de realizarse controles anuales al grupo de estudio. Conclusiones: Encontramos una mayor incidencia de cáncer uterino en mujeres con cáncer de mama tratadas con tamoxifeno, pero no representa el doble que en la población general. Hubo adenocarcinomas de endometrio principalmente, aunque encontramos también 2 sarcomas (un sarcoma de la estroma endometrial y 1 tumor mulleriano mixto heterólogo) (AU)


Objective: To evaluate the incidence of uterine cancer in women with breast cancer who had been treated with Tamoxifen. Material and methods: We evaluate 463 women who were treated with 20mg of Tamoxifen daily for a hormone dependent breast cancer, and followed up for 6 years. Results: We detected 7 uterine cancers (1.55% of the study population and 2.52 /1.000 women ayear). Of these, 5 were endometrial carcinomas, a malignant heterologous mixed mesodermal tumour and one endometrial stromal sarcoma. Only the rapid growth of what we believed to be a uterine myoma, detected by ultrasound, allowed us to diagnose the endometrial stromal sarcoma. The other 6 tumours were detected by the appearance of vaginal bleeding, in spite of the annual controls carried out on the study group. Conclusions: We find a higher incidence of uterine cancer in women with Tamoxifen treated breast cancer, but it is not the double of the general population. We found mainly endometrial carcinomas, although there were also 2 sarcomas (an endometrial stromal sarcoma and a malignant heterologous mixed mesodermal tumour) (AU)

ABSTRACT

Presentamos un caso de hemorragia puerperal masiva por atonía uterina tras cesárea urgente, que tuvo lugar en nuestro centro. Ante el fracaso del tratamiento médico, la alternativa quirúrgica a la histerectomía fue la realización de una desvascularización progresiva del útero, seguida de coartación de la cavidad uterina mediante la técnica descrita por B-Lynch. Por otra parte, se añadió al tratamiento el empleo de antitrombina III. Se describe la técnica empleada y comparamos su utilidad frente a otras opciones quirúrgicas. La técnica de B-Lynch modificada es una alternativa eficaz en el tratamiento de la atonía uterina, que permite conservar la fertilidad (AU)


We report a case of massive postpartum hemorrhage secondary to uterine atony after an emergency cesarean delivery in our center. Medical therapy was unsuccessful and progressive uterine devascularization followed by coarctation of the uterine cavity using the B-Lynch suture technique were employed as an alternative to postpartum hysterectomy. Treatment was completed with antithrombin III. We describe the B-lynch technique and compare its utility with that of other surgical options (AU)
