ABSTRACT

El manejo tradicional del embarazo ectópico intersticial implica laparotomía y resección cornual. Los recientes avances en ultrasonografía y el desarrollo de técnicas sensibles de determinación de beta-hCG han conducido a un diagnóstico cada vez más temprano de estos casos permitiendo el empleo de opciones terapéuticas conservadoras, como el metotrexato sistémico, que se presenta como una opción segura y eficaz. Presentamos un caso de embarazo ectópico intersticial resuelto con éxito con metotrexato


Traditional management of interstitial pregnancy involves laparotomy with cornual resection. Recent advances in transvaginal ultrasonography and sensitive beta-hCG assays have led to earlier diagnosis of these cases. We report a case of interstitial pregnancy successfully treated with parenteral methotrexate. Prompt recognition of interstitial pregnancy allows conservative approachment and systemic methotrexate presents as an effective and safe option

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Analizar los resultados a corto y medio plazo de la aplicación de la cinta transobturadora para el tratamiento de la incontinencia urinaria de esfuerzo (IUE) femenina. Pacientes y método: Estudio descriptivo y de seguimiento retrospectivo de 66 pacientes, diagnosticadas de IUE y sin afección de suelo pélvico asociada, a las que se les aplicó una cinta suburetral transobturadora. La evaluación preoperatoria consistió en anamnesis, examen pélvico, ecografía transvaginal y cistometría simple. El período de estudio fue de enero de 2002 a junio de 2005.Resultados: El porcentaje de curación de la IUE fue del 84,6% (55/66). Como complicaciones relevantes destacamos 2 pacientes (3%) que exteriorizaron la cinta y la expulsaron a través de la pared vaginal anterior y 4 pacientes (6,1%) que presentaron síntomas obstructivos leves. Conclusiones: La aplicación de la cinta suburetral transobturadora es una alternativa eficaz y segurapara la corrección de la IUE


Objective: To analyze the short-and medium-term results of the use of the transobturator sling for thetreatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI).Patients and method: We performed a descriptive retrospective study of 66 patients diagnosed with SUI and without associated pelvic floor disorders. The patients underwent placement of a transobturator sling. Preoperative evaluation consisted of history taking, pelvic evaluation, transvaginal ultrasound, and cystometry. The study period was from January 2002 to June 2005. Results: Complete patient satisfaction was achieved in 84.6% (55 patients). Notable complicationsconsisted of mesh extrusion through the anterior vaginal wall in two patients (3%) and mild obstruction in four patients (6.1%).

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Evaluar el impacto que ha supuesto la adopción del nuevo protocolo de la SEGO sobre la asistencia al parto en presentación podálica en un hospital de nivel III perteneciente a la Red Pública de la Comunidad de Madrid (Fundación Hospital Alcorcón). Sujetos y métodos: Se incluyó en el estudio a un total de 197 gestantes con feto único a término en presentación podálica, atendidas en nuestro servicio desde septiembre de 1999 hasta noviembre de 2003. Fueron divididas en 2 grupos, según pertenecieran al período anterior o posterior a la instauración del nuevo protocolo (104 y 93, respectivamente). Se explotaron los datos recogidos en los formularios de las historias clínicas electrónicas de las pacientes y se realizó el análisis estadístico con el programa SPSS. Resultados: En el análisis de las variables maternas y perinatales sólo se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en las semanas de gestación (39,27 semanas en el primero y de 38,73 en el segundo; U de Mann-Whitney, 3.285; p < 0,0001), el tiempo de estancia media en el hospital (en el primer grupo fue de 2,8 días frente a 3,17 días del segundo [U de Mann-Whitney = 3.908; p = 0,029] y color del LA (X2 = 9.919; p = 0,002). Conclusiones: La realización de cesárea electiva a todas las gestaciones con feto único a término en presentación podálica no ha supuesto hasta el momento una mejoría en nuestros resultados de morbilidad materna y fetal


Objective: To evaluate the impact of the new breech delivery protocol of the Spanish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology in a tertiary public hospital (Fundación Hospital Alcorcón, Madrid, Spain). Subjects and methods: One hundred ninety-seven pregnant women with full-term single-breech presentation attending our hospital between September 1999 and November 2003 were included in this study. The women were divided into two groups: 104 women (group 1) who gave birth before the introduction of the new protocol and 93 women (group 2) who delivered after the introduction of this protocol. The data available in patients' electronic records were processed using the SPSS statistical package. Results: Comparison of variables in the two groups only revealed significant differences in weeks of pregnancy at delivery (39.27 in group 1 versus 38.73 in group 2; Mann-Whitney U test: 3285; p < 0.0001), mean length of hospital stay (2.80 days in group 1 versus 3.17 in group 2; Mann-Whitney U test: 3908; p = 0.029), and color of amniotic fluid (X2: 9.919; p = 0.002). Conclusions: In our hospital, performing elective cesarean section in all full-term pregnant women with single-breech presentation has not improved maternal and fetal morbidity to date

ABSTRACT

La mastopatía diabética (MD) es una complicación de la diabetes mellitus (DM) de larga evolución. Consiste en la aparición de nódulos mamarios que clínicamente pueden simular un proceso maligno. Las pruebas de imagen son inespecíficas. La biopsia informa de fibrosis densa e infiltración linfocitaria sin signos de malignidad. No hay riesgo de malignización de las lesiones. Se trata el caso de una mujer de 32 años, con DM tipo 1 que presenta en la mama izquierda un nódulo retroareolar de 4 cm, móvil, mal delimitado, duro e irregular, sin signos inflamatorios. La ecografía y la mamografía muestran mamas densas sin signos de malignidad. El diagnóstico se realiza con biopsia percutánea y el manejo es conservador mediante revisiones periódicas, descartando la exéresis quirúgica. En conclusión, aunque clínicamente la MD simule un proceso maligno, siempre es benigna. Se diagnostica mediante core-biopsia y el manejo debe ser conservador; no precisa cirugía


Diabetic mastopathy is a complication of long-standing diabetes mellitus (DM). It consists of breast nodules that can mimic a malignant process. Imaging tests are nonspecific. Biopsy reveals dense fibrosis and lymphoid infiltrates without signs of malignant disease. There is no risk of malignant transformation of the lesions. A 32-year-old woman with DM type 1 presented with a 4-cm, hard, palpable mass in the subareolar region of the left breast. The nodule was mobile and irregularly shaped, without signs of inflammation. Diagnosis was based on percutaneous biopsy. Management was conservative through periodic follow-up visits and surgical resection was ruled out. In conclusion, although diabetic mastopathy can mimic cancer, it is always a benign process. Diagnosis must be made with core biopsy and treatment should avoid surgery

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Atherosis and placental infarction have been observed in pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction (FGR). Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation plays a central role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis; therefore, it could be involved in the placental alterations observed in FGR. The aims of the present study were to estimate LDL susceptibility to oxidation in pregnancies complicated by FGR and to evaluate their relationship with fetal growth and placental hormone secretion. METHODS: A cohort prospective study was carried out in 50 women with uncomplicated pregnancies and 55 women with FGR. Blood was drawn at 15, 24, and 32 weeks of gestation. Low-density lipoprotein oxidation was initiated by the addition of CuCl2 and formation of conjugated dienes was monitored. Cholesterol, triglycerides, vitamin E, estradiol, progesterone, and placental lactogen were determined. RESULTS: Women with FGR showed a lag phase (minutes from addition of CuCl2) similar to the control group in the first trimester of pregnancy (85.3 +/- 3.3 versus 81.3 +/- 5.6). But in the second and third trimester, they showed a lower lag phase than the control group: 69.6 +/- 3.6 versus 84.4 +/- 3.5 (P < .05) and 69.9 +/- 3.4 versus 95.6 +/- 3.4 (P < .001). During the third trimester, pregnancies complicated with FGR showed lower levels of estradiol, progesterone, and human placental lactogen than those in the control group. In the third trimester, a positive correlation was found between the lag phase and the birth weight (P = .001) and with the plasma levels of estradiol (P = .002). CONCLUSION: Fetal growth restriction is associated with an increased LDL susceptibility to oxidation, a process that could damage the placenta, leading to alterations in placental endocrine function and fetal weight. Pregnancies complicated by fetal growth restriction show an increased LDL susceptibility to oxidation, a process that may lead to placental dysfunction and growth delay.
