ABSTRACT
Objective To study the therapeutic regimen for the simple third or fourth grade of traumatic spleen rupture in patients with hemorrhagic shock. Methods A total of 58 patients with traumatic spleen rupture complicated with hemorrhagic shock admitted between January 2012 and June 2016 were enrolled for analysis. The causes of the casualties suffering from closed abdominal injuries including 31 traffic accident, 13 falling down from a height, 8 tumbling on the ground, 2 beaten trauma and 4 other traumatic injuries. All the patients were divided into the conventional surgery group or proximal selective spleen artery embolization (PASE) group. Comparisons of surgery and postoperative relevant parameters between two groups were analyzed, and the curative effects of the two kinds of treatments was evaluated. Results There were no statistically significant difference in age, sex, degree of spleen rupture, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, and hemoglobin concentration between two groups (P＞ 0.05). The time consumed for operation (T1),the time required for systolic blood pressure recovery (T2), and the allogeneic blood volume capacity (V2) transfused in PASE group were significantly lesser than those in the conventional surgery group (P＜0.05), however there was no difference in the autologous blood volume reinfusion (V1) (P＞ 0.05). Furthermore, the incidence of fever, infection of incision, ileus, ICU treatment, time required fro intestinal function time and hospital stay in PASE group were significantly lesser than those in conventional surgery group (P＜0.05), but the incidence of left upper abdominal pain in PASE group was higher (P＜0.05). Conclusions Selective spleen artery embolization can rapidly stabilize hemodynamics, and shorten the operation time. It also can reduce the complications and allogeneic blood use, shorten recovery time and hospital stay. It is a preferential choice for treatment of traumatic spleen rupture with shock, and worth popularizing in clinical.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy and safety between spleen total resection splenectomy and spleen partial splenectomy in the treatment of patients with traumatic spleen rupture.Methods:84 cases of patients with traumatic spleen rupture from March 2013 to March 2016 were selected and divided into two groups.42 cases in the spleen total resection group were treated with spleen total resection,while the other 42 cases in the spleen partial nephrectomy group were treated with spleen partial splenectomy.The operative effect,the levels of platelet count,serum IgA,IgG,IgM,CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 +,CD4 + / CD8 + levels before and after treatment,the incidence of complications were compared between two groups.Results:The intraoperative blood loss,exhaust time,length of hospital stay of spleen partial nephrectomy group were shorter than those of the spleen total resection group,but the operation time of research group was longer than that of the spleen total resection group (P＜0.05).The platelet count,CD8+ of spleen partial nephrectomy group were lower than those of the spleen total resection group (P＜0.05).The IgA,IgG,IgM,CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+ of spleen partial nephrectomy group were significantly higher than those of the spleen total resection group (P＜0.05).The incidence rate of complications in the spleen partial nephrectomy group was lower than that of the spleen total resection group (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Spleen partial splenectomy was more effective than spleen total resection in the treatment of traumatic splenic rupture,which had little effect on the platelet and immune function.
ABSTRACT
Se presenta el caso de un masculino de 33 años de edad, portador de cuatro hernias discales, que fue sometido a una instrumentación, donde perdió tres litros de sangre y recibió múltiples transfusiones, al día después inició con dolor y alteración de la sensibilidad en la pierna izquierda, por lo que lo vuelven a intervenir ya que un tornillo estaba mal posicionado. Fue dado de alta. A los dos días presentó hematemesis, epistaxis e ictericia, fue llevado al hospital donde falleció por un shock hipovolémico, debido a una ruptura del bazo. La ruptura atraumática del bazo, es conocida por ser una entidad infrecuente, que puede ocurrir en ausencia de factores de riesgo como el trauma o alguna patología de fondo.
Case of a 33 years old male bearing four discs hernias who went through surgical instrumentation, where he lost 3 liters of blood and received multiple transfusions. Next day reported pain and sensitivity alteration on the left leg; returns to surgery because one bold was not well positioned. Released from the hospital, and two days later returned with hematemesis, epistaxis, and jaundice, went back to the hospital where he died from a hypovolemic shock due to a spleen rupture. The non-traumatic spleen rupture is very infrequent in absence of risk factors, such as trauma or a base pathology.

El síndrome de von Hippel-Lindau es una enfermedad caracterizada por el desarrollo de tumores como hemangioblastomas del sistema nervioso central y de la retina, quistes renales, hepáticos y pancreáticos; carcinoma renal de células claras, feocromocitoma, así como adenomas en el oído interno, la nariz y la laringe. En la mayoría de los casos hay un antecedente familiar positivo del síndrome 8. A continuación se presenta el caso de una femenina de 35 años de edad, sin antecedentes personales patológicos conocidos, con antecedente familiar positivo por la enfermedad de von Hippel-Lindau. Según la historia de sus familiares, la mujer presentaba ataques de rigidez de dos semanas de evolución, posterior a uno de estos ataques fue atendida por paramédicos quienes la declararon fallecida. Según la autopsia médico legal se diagnosticó una hidrocefalia obstructiva secundaria a hemangioma cerebeloso y hallazgos compatibles con el Síndrome de von Hippel-Lindau. El objetivo de este artículo es resaltar los hallazgos postmortem de esta entidad y su relación con la causa de la muerte.
Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome is characterized by tumors as central nervous system and retinal hemangioblastomas; renal, liver and pancreas cysts; clear cells renal carcinoma, pheochromocytoma and adenomas of the ear, nose and larynx. In most cases there is a positive family history of the syndrome 8. The follow case is about a female how was 35 years old without known medical history. She had a positive family history of von Hippel-Lindau, and her family told us about she had stiffness attacks and two weeks later had another stiffness attack so it was treated by paramedics who declared her dead. In agreement with the forensic autopsy findings the diagnosis was hydrocephalus induced by brain stem hemangioma and the findings were compatible with von Hippel-Lindau. The aim of this article is to highlight the most important postmortem findings of this syndrome and its relation to the cause of death.

Objective To assess the value of emergency interventional embolization in treating traumatic spleen rupture. Methods A total of 74 patients with traumatic spleen rupture, who were encountered at authors’ hospital during the period from July 2007 to July 2013, were enrolled in this study. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into embolization group (n = 38) and surgery group (n = 36). Interventional splenic artery embolization was carried out in the patients of the embolization group, and surgical repair was employed in the patients of the surgery group. The operation time, the amount of blood loss during the procedure, the hospitalization days, the preservation rate of the spleen and the occurrence of procedure- related adverse events were recorded, and the results were compared between the two groups. Results No significant difference in the operation time existed between the two groups (P = 0.061). The amount of blood loss during the procedure, the hospitalization days and the occurrence of procedure- related adverse events in the embolization group were significantly lower than those in the surgery group (P < 0.05), while the preservation rate of the spleen of the embolization group was significantly higher than that of the surgery group (P = 0.026). Conclusion Emergency interventional embolization is a safe procedure for the treatment of traumatic spleen rupture, this technique can improve the preservation rate of the spleen when compared with traditional surgical repair treatment.
