Complicaciones en cirugía laparoscópica: como lo hago yo, para que usted no lo haga y le vaya bien / Complications in laparoscopic surgery: how I do it, so you won´t and do well

INTRODUCCIÓN: La cirugía laparoscópica urológica no esta exenta de complicaciones. Estas van a depender de la selección del paciente, así como de la experiencia del cirujano. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se presentan cuatro casos en los que ocurrieron complicaciones durante una cirugía laparoscópica renal. Se discute la complicación y se analizan los factores que la precipitaron, el manejo de esta y sugerencias para evitarla. RESULTADOS: Se presentan dos casos de lesión de pedículo renal durante nefrectomía parcial laparoscópica, 1 lesión de vena renal y una lesión de arteria renal. En ambos fue posible la resolución mediante sutura intracorpórea. Se presenta dos casos de lesión de pedículo durante nefrectomía radical laparoscópica. 1 lesión de arteria renal y una lesión de venal renal. En ambos casos fue necesaria la conversión a cirugía abierta para controlar la complicación. Se presenta un caso de lesión esplénica durante una nefrectomía parcial laparoscópica. La laceración fue controlada mediante compresión y electro coagulación. CONCLUSIONES: Las presencia de complicaciones durante la cirugía laparoscópica urológica es inherente al procedimiento. El uso de equipo e instrumental adecuados son fundamentales para minimizar el riesgo, así como también la selección del paciente es un factor importante. El dominio de la sutura intracorpórea es de suma importancia para solucionar la complicación una vez que esta ya está establecida. linfadenectomía aorto-ilíaca. Se realizó un abordaje transperitoneal con el sistema da Vinci S-HD® y técnica de 6 trócares. Nuestra plantilla de disección ganglionar tiene como límites el pubis hacia distal, la arteria mesentérica inferior hacia proximal, el nervio genito-femoral hacia lateral y la vejiga hacia medial.

Introduction: Laparoscopic urological surgery is not without complications. These will depend on the patient's selection as well as the surgeon's experience. Material and Methods: Four cases in which complications occurred during laparoscopic renal surgery are presented . The complication is discussed and the causes that produced it are analyzed. Results: Two cases of renal pedicle injury are presented during laparoscopic partial nephrectomy, 1 renal vein and 1 renal artery injuries. In both cases resolution was possible by intracorporeal suture. Two cases of pedicle injury are presented during laparoscopic radical nephrectomy. 1 renal artery injury and renal venal injury. In both cases, conversion to open surgery was necessary to control the complication. A case of splenic injury is presented during a laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. The laceration was controlled by compression and electrocoagulation. Conclusions: The presence of complications during laparoscopic urological surgery is inherent in the procedure. The use of appropriate equipment and instruments are essential to minimize risk, as well as patient selection is an important factor. The domain of intracorporeal suture is of paramount importance to solve the complication once it is already established. (AU)

INTRODUCCIÓN Y OBJETIVO: El mayor uso de imágenes diagnósticas, ha implicado un aumento en el diagnóstico de lesionestumorales renales de menor tamaño, llevando al desarrollo de técnicas quirúrgicas conservadoras de parenquimarenal. Series internacionales han demostrado que los resultados oncológicos de este tipo de cirugía son similares a la nefrectomía radical. Nuestro objetivo es mostrar la experiencia y resultados oncológicos de la cirugía conservadora deparenquima renal. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio retrospectivo, de las nefrectomías parciales y tumorectomías realizadas entre Enero del año 2002 y Junio del año 2013, en el Hospital Clínico Regional de Valdivia. RESULTADOS: 50 pacientes fueron sometidos a cirugía renal conservadora, con 51 cirugías realizadas. 26 corresponden a sexo masculino y 24 a sexo femenino; promedio de edad de 58,2 años. De las cirugías realizadas veinte correspondieron a nefrectomías parciales, contamaño tumoral promedio de 4,3 cms. (2-7 cms.) y 31 a tumorectomías, con tamaño tumoral promedio de 2,5 cms. (1-6,1cms.). Del total de los tumores resecados, ocho (26%) fueron informados como tumores benignos y 43 (84%) corresponden a adenocarcinomas; 41 (95%) corresponden a la variante células claras y solo dos a variante de células cromofobas. Lasbiopsias rápidas están todas entre 1-2 mm de tejido sano como margen, y todas fueron negativas para tumor. La biopsiadiferida, informo cuatro márgenes positivos para tumor. De estas, tres fueron a re-cirugía cuyas biopsias fueron negativaspara tumor. El tiempo promedio de seguimiento fue de 51,1 meses, con una sobrevida actuarial a los diez años cercana al70% y una sobrevida específica a los diez años cercana al 95%...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: The increased use of diagnostic imaging, has involved an increase in the diagnosis ofsmaller tumor lesions, taking the development of conservative surgical techniques of renal parenchyma. Internationalseries have shown that cancer results from this type of surgery are similar to radical nephrectomy. Our goal is to show the experience and oncological results of renal parenchymal sparing surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective studyof tumorectomies and partial nephrectomies performed between January 2002 and June 2013, at the Regional Hospital ofValdivia. RESULTS: 50 patients underwent renal sparing surgery, with 51 surgeries performed. 26 are male and 24 female,average age of 58.2 years old. Of the surgeries performed, twenty were partial nephrectomy, with average tumor size of4.3 cm. (2-7 cms.) and 31 tumorectomies, with average tumor size of 2.5 cm. (1-6.1 cms.). Of all resected tumors, eight (26%)were reported as benign and 43 (84%) were adenocarcinomas, 41 (95%) were clear cell variant and only two chromophobecell variant. Quick biopsies are all 1-2 mm of healthy tissue margin, and all were negative for tumor. The deferred biopsy,reported four positive tumor margins. Of these, three went to re-surgery, whose biopsies were negative for tumor. The average follow-up time was 51.1 months, with an actuarial survival at ten years about 70% and a specific survival at ten years was approximately 95%...

Diffusion thermopower of (Ga,Mn)As/GaAs tunnel junctions.

We report the observation of tunneling anisotropic magnetothermopower, a voltage response to a temperature difference across an interface between a normal and a magnetic semiconductor. The resulting voltage is related to the energy derivative of the density of states in the magnetic material, and thus has a strongly anisotropic response to the direction of magnetization in the material. The effect will have relevance to the operation of semiconductor spintronic devices, and may indeed already play a role in correctly interpreting the details of some earlier spin injection studies.

Fully electrical read-write device out of a ferromagnetic semiconductor.

We report the realization of a read-write device out of the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As as the first step to a fundamentally new information processing paradigm. Writing the magnetic state is achieved by current-induced switching and readout of the state is done by the means of the tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance effect. This 1 bit demonstrator device can be used to design an electrically programmable memory and logic device.

Control of magnetic anisotropy in (Ga,Mn)as by lithography-induced strain relaxation.

We report control of magnetic anisotropy in epitaxial (Ga,Mn)As by anisotropic strain relaxation in patterned structures. The strain in the structures is characterized using reciprocal space mapping by x-ray techniques. The magnetic anisotropy before patterning of the layer, which shows biaxial easy axes along [100] and [010], is replaced by a hard axis in the direction of large elastic strain relaxation and a uniaxial easy axis in the direction where pseudomorphic conditions are retained.

[Miliary tuberculosis as a complication of BCG immunotherapy in cancer of the bladder. Case report]. / Tuberculosis miliar como complicacion de inmunoterapia con BCG en el cancer de vejiga. Caso clinico.

Intravesical administration of BCG may be used as an ancillary immunotherapy after endoscopic resection for cancer of the bladder. Local side effects are usually mild. Here is reported a patient who developed miliary tuberculosis after this form of therapy. Radiologic studies of the thorax and liver biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. The patient recovered after treatment with anti-tuberculosis drugs (TA-81 scheme). Epithelial trauma may be invoked as an alteration facilitating this complication. Although it develops infrequently, patients with bladder cancer treated with BCG must be monitored for this complication.

[The pH of the fetal scalp: 30 years later]. / pH de cuero cabelludo fetal: 30 años después.

The experience of 16 cases of fetal scalp sampling to determine the PH was evaluated in relation to fetal electronic monitoring. It was concluded that currently its purposefulness is limited and expensive.

Chronic granulomatous disease: report of case and review of the literature.

A man with chronic granulomatous disease had severe gingivitis and ulcerous lesions in the buccal mucosa and palatal plate. After the use of good hygiene procedures, his condition improved greatly. It is possible that oral symptoms reported in this disease are due in part to accumulations of plaque. A review of the literature on chronic granulomatous disease is included.
