ABSTRACT

Mujer de 62 años con leucemia linfática crónica que acude a consultas de cirugía torácica por aparición de una masa en la pared anterior izquierda del tórax de unos diez días de evolución, con leve dolor local. No asocia otra clínica. A la exploración se palpa una masa en pared anterior izquierda, de unos 10-12 cm de diámetro, adherido a planos profundos, de consistencia dura y no rodadera. En la ecografía se objetiva una solución de continuidad de partes blandas que coincide con la tumoración. La tomografía computarizada (TC) de tórax muestra engrosamiento pleural izquierdo con extensión extratorácica hacia la mama homolateral y derrame pericárdico. Ante la sospecha de recaída de su enfermedad se realiza PAAF (punción aspiración con aguja fina), que resulta inespecífica, por lo que se decide biopsia quirúrgica. Durante la intervención quirúrgica se biopsia la masa y se aprecia drenaje espontáneo de material purulento. Se toman cultivos, en los cuales se observan BAAR (bacilos ácido-alcohol resistentes), tratándose de un absceso frío tuberculoso


A 62-year-old woman with chronic lymphatic leukemia who attended consultations for thoracic surgery due to the appearance of mass in the left anterior wall with slight local pain about ten days ago. She does not refer other symptoms. On examination, a mass is palpable in the left anterior wall adhered to deep layers, of about 10-12 cm in diameter, of hard consistency and not rolling. On ultrasound, a soft tissue continuity solution was found that coincides with the tumor. The chest computerized tomography scan (CT) shows left pleural thickening with extrathoracic extension towards homolateral breast and pericardial effusion. FNAP (fine-needle aspiration) is performed if there is a suspicion of relapse of the disease, which is nonspecific, so it is decided to perform surgical biopsy. During the surgical procedure, biopsy of the mass is performed and spontaneous drainage of purulent material is observed. Cultures are taken. Acid-fast bacilli are found in the cultures, as in the case of a cold tuberculous abscess

ABSTRACT

Describimos el caso de un varón de raza caucásica de 42 años que acude a Urgencias por hemoptisis sin repercusión hemodinámica. El paciente no refiere ningún antecedente de interés. Se le realiza angio-tomografía computarizada (angioTC) , la cual descarta tromboembolismo pulmonar y punto de sangrado activo. El paciente es ingresado para completar estudio y vigilancia. Se descartan causas infecciosas y vasculares de la hemoptisis, por lo que tras un nuevo episodio de hemoptisis se decide trasladar a la UCI. Tras dos fibrobroncoscopias, donde se aprecia una mucosa en empedrado del árbol traqueobronquial y tras la toma de biopsias, se concluye que el diagnóstico es compatible con traqueobroncopatía osteocondroplástica


We describe the case of a 42-year-old caucasian male who went to the Emergency room for hemoptysis without hemodynamic repercussion. The patient does not refer any antecedent of interest. Angio-computerized tomography (angioCT) is performed, which rules out pulmonary thromboembolism and active bleeding point. The patient is admitted to complete study and surveillance. Infectious and vascular causes of hemoptysis are ruled out, so after a new episode of hemoptisis, it is decided to move to the ICU. After two fibrobronchoscopies, showing a cobblestone mucosa of the tracheobronchial tree and after taking biopsies, it is concluded that the diagnosis is compatible with osteochondroplastic tracheobronchopathy
