ABSTRACT

Forty two cases of advanced gestational choriocarcinoma were examined, with 4 of these patients being hospitalized for less than 24 hours. Given the non specific and atypical nature of the symptomatology, it was correctly diagnosed in 20 of these cases. In the other 22 cases where the predominant clinical status was established as a result of the localized invasion of neighboring structures or through metastasis, a variety of diagnoses were given, including uterine cervical carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma, pulmonary metastasis, brain tumor, bleeding of the gastrointestinal tract. The 20 patient diagnosed with choriocarcinoma were treated in the following manner: nine were operated for hysterectomies, with one of these also receiving an omentectomy, seven more were given chemotherapy treatment based upon methotrexate, and the remaining for were simply stabilized, which produced unfavorable results in that they survived from one to twenty weeks longer, with an average on only five weeks.

ABSTRACT

Se presenta un caso de una paciente de 22 años de edad, con tres meses de evolución, con una mancha roja en casi la totalidad de la mama derecha, sin una masa bien definida. La mama izquierda y zonas linfoportadoras locorregionales fueron normales. Una xeromastografía demostró aumento en la densidad de la mama derecha y discreto adelgazamiento de la piel. el diagnóstico clínico fue angiosarcoma vs. hemangioma de mama. El estudio histológico de una biopsia incisional demostró nagiosarcoma bien diferenciado. Se realizó una incisión local amplia, dando margen para lograr bordes quirúrgicos libres de tumor; se incluyó la glándula derecha, parte del pectoral mayor, el pectoral menor y disección de ganglios linfáticos axilares bajos. El reporte del estudio histopatológico definitivo fue de angiosarcoma bien diferenciado de mama. La evolución postoperatoria fue satisfactoria. Actualmente, a tres años de la cirugía, se encuentra viva y libre de enfermedad. Se realiza una revisión de la literatura médica
