ABSTRACT

El riñón en herradura es la anomalía congénita de fusión más frecuente. Se presenta en el 0,25% de la población ó en 1 de cada 400. Más frecuente en el varón (proporción de 2:1). La litiasis es una de las complicaciones más frecuentes del riñón en herradura, aunque puede haber otras como: dolor abdominal, infecciones urinarias, hematuria, hidronefrosis, traumatismos y aparición de tumores, siendo los más comúnmente asociados el hipernefroma y el tumor de Wilms. Describimos el caso de un varón portador de riñón en herradura, enfermedad litiásica y adenocarcinoma de la próstata. En la literatura médica revisada encontramos un caso portador de esta entidad que presentó un carcinoma transicional de próstata (AU)


The horseshoe kidney is the most common congenital renal fusion anomalies. It occurs in 0.25% of the population, or 1 in every 400 people. It is more frequent in males (ratio 2:1). The most observed complication of horseshoe kidney is stone disease, although there may be others such as, abdominal pain, urinary infections, haematuria, hydronephrosis, trauma and tumours (most commonly associated with hypernephroma and Wilms tumour). We describe a case of a male patient with horseshoe kidney, stone disease and adenocarcinoma of the prostate. One carrier of this condition who suffered a transitional cell carcinoma of the prostate was found in a review of the literature (AU)

ABSTRACT

La asociación de un neumotórax y un carcinoma broncopulmonar es infrecuente y el diagnóstico es complicado. La sospecha clínica debe hacerse a partir de los hallazgos radiográficos y la existencia de factores de riesgo. Son discutidos los mecanismos implicados en la aparición del neumotórax en pacientes con neoplasias de pulmón, así como el significado clínico y la conducta diagnóstica y terapéutica recomendada en estos casos (AU)


The combination of a pneumothorax and lung cancer is rare and diagnosis is complex. Clinical suspicion of cancer must be based on radiological findings and the existence of risk factors. We discuss the mechanisms involved in the development of pneumothorax in patients with lung cancer, as well as the clinical significance, the recommended diagnostic approach, and therapeutic guidelines (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivos. Presentar un caso clínico de una mujer de 41 años con un carcinoma epidermoide de esófago en estadio IV. Método y pacientes. Mujer de 41 años. No hábitos tóxicos, DMNID, hiperferritinemia, resección de placa hemosiderina lingual, LOE hepática estudiada con ecografía y RMN con aumento del tamaño, sin lograr diferenciar entre hemangioma y hepatocarcinoma. Comienza con disfagia, progresiva, pérdida de peso. Esofagogastroscopía (FGC) con toma de biopsia: neoformación estenosante a 20cm. Estudio AP: carcinoma epidermoide. TAC toracoabdominal: lesiones esofágicas compatibles con proceso neoformativo. Metástasis pulmonares y adrenal izquierda, lesión hepática compatible con proceso neoformativo. Laboratorio: eritrosedimentación: 55mm. Se remite a Cirugía para realización de gastrostomía para alimentación enteral por sonda y a Oncología que indica tratamiento con quimioterapia paliativa. Conclusiones. El carcinoma epidermoide esofágico es el más frecuente. Los dos factores de riesgo más importantes son: el tabaco y el alcohol. El síntoma más frecuente es la disfagia (96%). El pronóstico es malo y tiene una elevada mortalidad. La Cirugía es el tratamiento estándar, cuando el tumor está localizado. La quimioterapia y radioterapia son tratamientos paliativos, sin que se haya demostrado claramente su eficacia (AU)


Objective. To present a clinical case of a 41 year-old woman, with a stage IV squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus. Methods and patients. We present a clinical case of 41 year-old woman with a history of type 2 diabetes mellitus, and resection of a haemosiderin plaque on the tongue. A space occupying lesion (SOL) was studied using ultrasound and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), detecting, but unable to differentiate, a gradually increasing haemangioma or hepatocarcinoma. She was seen at the clinic due to dysphagia and loss of weight. In oesophagogastroscopy with biopsy a squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus was diagnosed. The Computed Tomography (CT) of the neck, thorax and abdomen showed a stenosing tumour in the oesophagus with metastasis in the lungs and left adrenal gland, and a SOL in the liver compatible with a neo-formative process. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 55mm. She was referred to Surgery and Oncology, who performed a gastrostomy for enteral feeding and started treatment with palliative chemotherapy. Conclusions. Squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus is very frequent. The two most important risk factors are alcoholism and nicotine poisoning. The dysphagia is the most common symptom (96% of the patients). The prognosis is a poor, with high mortality. Surgery is the standard treatment when the tumour is located. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are palliative treatments, but has not shown to be very effective (AU)
