ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the impact of gestational age (GA) at the time of fetal open spinal dysraphism (OSD) repair through a mini-hysterotomy on the perinatal outcomes and the infants' ventriculoperitoneal shunt rates. METHODS: Retrospective study of cases of fetal OSD correction performed from 2014 and 2019. RESULTS: One hundred and ninety women underwent fetal surgery for OSD through a mini-hysterotomy, and 176 (176/190:92.6%) have since delivered. Fetal OSD correction performed earlier in the gestational period, ranging from 19.7 to 26.9 weeks, was associated with lower rates of postnatal ventriculoperitoneal shunting (P: .049). Earlier fetal surgeries were associated with shorter surgical times (P: .01), smaller hysterotomy lengths (P < .001), higher frequencies of hindbrain herniation reversal (P: .003), and longer latencies from surgery to delivery (P < .001). Median GA at delivery was 35.3 weeks. Multivariate binary logistic regression showed that both fetal lateral ventricle-to-hemisphere ratio (%; P < .001; OR: 1.14 [95% CI: 1.09-1.21]) and GA at the time of fetal surgery (P: .016; OR: 1.37 [95% CI: 1.07-1.77]) were independent predictors of postnatal ventriculoperitoneal shunting. CONCLUSION: Fetuses with OSD who were operated on earlier in the gestational interval, which ranged from 19.7 to 26.9 weeks, were less prone to receiving postnatal ventriculoperitoneal shunts.

ABSTRACT

Os fatores predisponentes para a doença coronariana foram estudados em 23 pacientes sobreviventes de evento coronariano agudo (infarto do miocárdio em 87% e síndrome intermediária em 13% dos casos), com idade entre 28 e 40 anos. O electrocardiograma mostrou alteraçöes predominantemente na parede anterior (47% dos casos), sendo a descendente anterior a artéria mais freqüentemente acometida (39%). A maioria dos pacientes (65%) apresentava lesäo obstrutiva (estreitamento do lúmen arterial igual ou superior a 50%) em apenas um vaso e 22% dos casos apresentavam infarto com coronárias normais ou com lesäo näo obstrutiva. Os fatores de risco estiveram presentes nas seguintes porcentagens: antecedente familiar de coronariopatia 61%; hipertensäo arterial 22%; tabagismo 83%; diabete melito 90%; obesidade 39%; estrese ocupacional 30%; aumento de tensäo emocional na época do infarto 74%; hiperuricemia 74% e grupo sangüíneo A em 52% dos casos. O perfil lipídico mostrou: colesterolemia superior a 250 mg% em 52%; trigliceridemia acima de 150 mg% em 57%; níveis de LDL-colesterol superiores a 190 mg% em 39%; taxas de HDL colesterol inferiores a 45 mg% em 61%; índice de risco 1 acima de 4,97 em 83%; e o índice de risco 2 superior a 3,55 em 65% dos casos. É feita a análise crítica dos resultados encontrados, após comparaçäo com os dados da literatura referentes a esta faixa etária. Os autores concluem que nenhum dos elementos isoladamente é o responsável pela doença coronariana e que existem fatores ainda näo identificados na gênese do infarto do miocárdio
