ABSTRACT

Background: The phenomenon of deformation of devices for closure of intracardiac defects in catheterization has been reported, but not of devices for closure of patent ductus arteriosus. Objective: to report a case of deformation of a relatively new type of device for closure of patent ductus arteriosus. Methods: report an adult with hypertensive patent ductus arteriosus and a positive balloon occlusion test will be presented, in whom the occlusion was attempted with an Occlutech®-PDA device. Results: Upon delivery, the device took the shape of a "horn" instead of a "champagne cork" (usual appearance), so it was extracted prior to it is release and the procedure was carried out with another device. Conclusion: To our knowledge, no deformation during the delivery transcatheter of the Occlutech®-PDA device has been published. Adverse events related to new technologies, as in our case, should be reported as soon as possible, since it can help manufacturers to improve their quality and provide greater safety to patients.


Introducción: Existen comunicados sobre el fenómeno de la deformación de dispositivos oclusores de defectos intracardíacos durante el cateterismo, pero no acerca de los dispositivos oclusores para el conducto arterioso persistente. Objetivo: comunicar un caso de deformación de un relativamente nuevo tipo de dispositivo oclusor de conducto arterioso persistente. Método: se presenta un paciente adulto con conducto arterioso persistente hipertensivo y prueba de oclusión con balón positiva, en quien se intentó ocluirle con un dispositivo Occlutech®-PDA. Resultado: al momento de la entrega, el dispositivo adoptó la "forma de claxon" en lugar de "corcho de champagne" (apariencia habitual), motivo por el que fue retirado previo a su liberación y el procedimiento fue llevado a cabo con otro dispositivo. Conclusión: hasta donde conocemos, no hay comunicados acerca de deformación del dispositivo Occlutech®-PDA durante su implante mediante cateterismo. Los eventos adversos relacionados a nuevas tecnologías, como el presentado en este caso, deben ser comunicados tan pronto como sea posible, ya que esto puede ayudar a los fabricantes a mejorar su calidad y proveer mayor seguridad a los pacientes.

ABSTRACT

Introducción:El quiste óseo aneurismático es una neoplasia benigna poco común de aparición en edad temprana. Tiene mayor incidencia en huesos largos y en la columna vertebral. Su etiología es incierta, aunquesuele asociarse a traumatismo, probablemente debido a obstrucción venosa o a la formación de fístulas que se producen tras la contusión. Caso:En este estudio se presenta el caso de un paciente de 15 años sin antecedentes de trauma que presenta un quiste óseo aneurismático en clavícula, localización poco habitual para esta patología. Evolución: Se le brindótratamiento con terapia esclerosante con Polidocanol al 3% por 8 ocasiones con respuesta favorable.No ha requerido cirugía hasta el momento. Conclusión:El tratamientoesclerosante fue exitoso en este informe de casos


Introduction: The aneurysmal bone cyst is a rare benign neoplasm that appears at an early age. It has a higher incidence in long bones and in the spine. Its etiology is uncertain, although it is usually associated with trauma, probably due to venous obstruction or the formation of fistulas that occur after contusion. Case: This study presents the case of a 15-year-old patient with no history of trauma who presents with an aneurysmal bone cyst in the clavicle, an unusual location for this pathology. Evolution: Treatment with sclerosing therapy with 3% Polidocanol was given 8 times with a favorable response. He has not required surgery so far. Conclusion: Sclerosing treatment was successful in this case report

ABSTRACT

Clinical congenital anophthalmia is described as the uni- or bilateral absence of the eyeball that might occur in isolation or as part of a syndrome. It has a very low prevalence and its etiology is heterogeneous. Complex congenital cardiac malformations are also rare. The association of congenital anophthalmia and congenital heart disease is rarer still, and the etiology of those associations is not well understood yet. We report the case of a patient who had the very rare association of bilateral anophthalmia, multiple cardiac malformations and severe pulmonary hypertension.


La anoftalmía congénita clínica es la ausencia uni o bilateral del globo ocular, que se presenta de forma aislada o como parte de un síndrome. Tiene muy baja prevalencia y su etiología es heterogénea. La presencia conjunta de malformaciones cardíacas congénitas complejas también es poco frecuente. La asociación de anoftalmía congénita con cardiopatías congénitas es más rara aún, la etiología de tales asociaciones no es bien comprendida todavía. Se reporta el caso de una paciente que presentó la muy infrecuente asociación de anoftalmía bilateral, múltiples malformaciones cardíacas e hipertensión arterial pulmonar grave.

ABSTRACT

Tanto el síndrome de hemihipertrofia como el cor triatriatum son patologías sumamente infrecuentes. La hemihipertrofia se define como el sobrecrecimiento completo o parcial de uno de los hemicuerpos. El cor triatriatum es una cardiopatía congénita caracterizada por una membrana que divide la aurícula izquierda en dos cámaras; si esta membrana tiene un orificio restrictivo, provoca obstrucción al pasaje sanguíneo desde las venas pulmonares hacia el ventrículo izquierdo, lo que genera hipertensión y edema pulmonar. En este contexto, el ductus arterioso permeable puede actuar como vía de descompresión del circuito pulmonar al permitir el pasaje sanguíneo desde la arteria pulmonar hacia la aorta. Presentamos a un paciente con diagnóstico de síndrome de Silver-Rusell (hemihipertrofia), cor triatriatum y ductus arterioso con flujo invertido. Hasta donde conocemos, esta asociación de patologías infrecuentes y forma de presentación no se han descrito anteriormente.


Hemihypertrophy syndrome and cor triatriatum are extremely rare pathologies. Hemihypertrophy is defined as complete or partial overgrowth of one of the hemibodies. Cor triatriatum is a congenital heart disease characterized by a membrane which separates the left atrium into two chambers; if that membrane has a restrictive hole, it causes obstruction to blood passage from the pulmonary veins into the left ventricle causing hypertension and pulmonary edema. In this context, the patent ductus arteriosus can act as a means of decompression of the pulmonary circuit, because it allows the blood passage from the pulmonary artery to the aorta. We report a patient with Silver-Rusell syndrome (hemihypertrophy), cor triatriatum and ductus arteriosus with reverse flow. To our knowledge, this association of rare pathologies and this clinical presentation have not been described previously.

ABSTRACT

One of the complications related to central venous catheters is the so-called "fibrin sheath or sleeve", the persistence of this structure after central venous catheter removal is uncommon, especially within a cardiac chamber. A neonate with symptoms of infection and portal vein thrombosis with suspected umbilical catheter fragment retained in right atrium was consulted for possible removal by catheterization. Prior to the procedure, the echocardiography findings guided us to the diagnosis of persistent fibrin sheath. The procedure was discontinued and the patient received anticoagulant therapy and antibiotics. In our case, echocardiography was useful in confirming the diagnosis of retained fibrin sheath and rule out the presence of residual central venous catheter after its removal, thereby avoiding an unnecessary and invasive procedure.

ABSTRACT

Una de las complicaciones relacionadas con los catéteres venosos centrales es la denominada "vaina o manguito de fibrina". La persistencia de esta estructura después de extraer el catéter venoso central no es habitual, especialmente dentro de una cámara cardíaca. Un neonato con proceso infeccioso y trombosis de la vena porta, en quien se sospechó la presencia de un fragmento del catéter venoso umbilical retenido en la aurícula derecha, fue traído a la consulta para su eventual extracción mediante cateterismo. Antes del procedimiento, los hallazgos ecocardiográfcos orientaron al diagnóstico de vaina de fibrina persistente. El cateterismo se suspendió y el paciente recibió tratamiento anticoagulante y antibiótico. En este caso, la ecocardiografía fue útil para confrmar el diagnóstico de vaina de fibrina retenida y descartar la presencia del remanente del catéter venoso central, lo que evitó un procedimiento cruento e innecesario.
