RESUMO

This study investigated the perioperative and long-term fates of patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) who underwent secondary major amputations. From April 2010 to December 2018, 1653 CLTI patients primarily underwent endovascular therapy (EVT). Of these patients, 138 who underwent secondary major amputations were included in this study. The primary outcome measure was the mortality. Prognostic factors associated with perioperative (30-day) and late mortality (after 30 days) were assessed. The 30-day mortality was 9.6%. Patients who died during the perioperative period had lower ejection fractions on echocardiography than those in the perioperative survivors (49.5 ± 14.9% vs 58.6 ± 12.4%, P = .018). None of the other clinical characteristics were significantly associated with perioperative death. Two-years postoperatively, 49.6%, 12.2%, and 4.3% of the patients had died, had contralateral amputations, and had additional above-knee amputations, respectively. In the alive patients who had not undergone additional amputation at 2 years, only 25.9% were ambulatory, whereas 51.7% and 22.4% were in wheelchairs and bedridden, respectively. An age ≥80 years and serum albumin <3.0 g/dL were significantly associated with late mortality (P = .032 and P = .042, respectively). In conclusion, the perioperative and long-term fates after secondary major amputation in CLTI patients who underwent EVT were considerably poor.

RESUMO

In order to examine their suitability for studies on coronary atherosclerosis, we evaluated the features of coronary atherosclerotic plaques in myocardial infarction-prone Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHLMI) rabbits, a spontaneous animal model for coronary atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. Coronary segments of the hearts of 187 WHHLMI rabbits (10-29 months old) were sectioned serially and stained histopathologically and immunohistologically. Progression of coronary lesions was prominent in rabbits that had died suddenly. The degree of coronary lesions of females was higher than that of males. Various types of atherosclerotic lesions were observed in the coronary arteries, such as plaques with a large lipid core covered by a thin fibrous cap, fatty streaks, early and advanced fibroatheromas, fibrous lesions, and advanced lesions with calcium accumulation and the vasa vasorum. In rabbits that had died suddenly, the frequencies of fibroatheromas or advanced lesions were higher than those of rabbits euthanized. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-positive macrophages were detected in gaps among endothelial cells at the plaque surface, beneath the fibrous cap of thin-capped fibroatheromas, and at the bottom of the intimal plaques in which the tunica media was attenuated. Immunohistological results suggest that MMP-positive macrophages are involved in the initiation, progression, and destabilization of coronary plaques, in addition to vascular remodeling, even in WHHLMI rabbits. In conclusion, coronary lesions in WHHLMI rabbits resemble human atherosclerotic lesions, and thus, the WHHLMI rabbit is a suitable animal model for studies on human coronary plaques.

RESUMO

In recent years, breast reconstruction is being increasingly performed. Axillary resection is the standard treatment for axillary recurrence after a negative sentinel node (SN) biopsy. Appropriate treatment in the event of a negative SN artifact poses a problem. Case 1: A3 9-year-old woman with right breast cancer underwent Bt+SN (negative)+TE, IMP. Approximately 8 years postoperatively, axillary lymph node recurrence was diagnosed. Axillary resection was performed, and the reconstructed breast was preserved. Case 2: A4 0-year-old woman with right breast cancer underwent Bt+SN (negative)+TE, IMP. Approximately 8 years postoperatively, axillary lymph node recurrence was diagnosed. Axillary resection was performed, and the reconstructed breast was preserved. Case 3: A5 7-year-old woman with right breast cancer underwent Bt+SN (negative)+ TE, IMP. Because the metastatic lymph node was near the reconstructed breast, axillary resection and removal of the reconstructed breast was performed. It is expected that the incidence of axillary lymph node recurrence after breast reconstruction will increase in the future. For axillary lymph node recurrence, surgical resection needs to be performed to achieve a complete recovery. Therefore, it may be necessary to perform surgery without preserving the reconstructed breast.

RESUMO

Mastectomy is recommended for ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) after breast-conserving surgery plus radiotherapy(breast-conserving treatment). However, the number of patients who receive radiation therapy such as breast- conserving treatment in the hope of breast reconstruction is increasing. Radiation therapy has a significant magnifying effect on the difficulties of breast reconstruction. In the study presented here, we compared the patients who underwent mastectomy+ breast reconstruction with a tissue expander and an implant after IBTR and breast-conserving treatment (irradiation group, n=5) with patients who underwent mastectomy+breast reconstruction with a tissue expander and an implant at the time of the first breast cancer operation (non-irradiation group, n=21). The parameters compared were background, complications, reconstruction success rate, and capsular contraction. A significant difference was not observed between the 2 groups. Complications after operation, specifically capsular contracture, are reported to be more frequent in the radiation group than in the non-irradiation group. However, with appropriate explanation of the risks, this surgery is an option for patients who strongly desire breast reconstruction.

RESUMO

Low-grade cribriform cystadenocarcinoma (LGCCA) is a rare tumor of the salivary gland that exhibits clinically indolent behavior. In this paper, we present a case of invasive adenocarcinoma of the accessory parotid gland in a young male that exhibited histology suggestive of an association of LGCCA. A 27-year-old man presented with a subcutaneous tumor in his left cheek. The tumor was separated from the parotid gland and located on the masseter muscle. The tumor was resected, and the postoperative histological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified (ANOS). The tumor exhibited papillary-cystic and cribriform proliferation of the duct epithelium and obvious stromal infiltration. Some tumor nests were rimmed by myoepithelium positive for smooth muscle actin, p63, and cytokeratin 14, indicating the presence of intraductal components of the tumor. Tumor cells exhibited mild nuclear atypia, and some of them presented an apocrine-like appearance and had cytoplasmic PAS-positive/diastase-resistant granules and hemosiderin. Other cells had foamy cytoplasm with microvacuoles. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the almost all of the tumor cells were strongly positive for S-100. These histological findings suggest the possibility that ANOS might arise secondarily from LGCCA. This is an interesting case regarding the association between ANOS and LGCCA in oncogenesis.

RESUMO

We report the case of a 76 year-old male with multiple subcutaneous nodules, but without joint symptoms or deformities, who was diagnosed histopathologically with rheumatoid nodulosis after resection of the nodules. Rheumatoid nodulosis is a disease characterized by multiple subcutaneous nodules that are histopathologically similar to rheumatoid nodules, a high titer of rheumatoid factor, and radiologically detectable cystic bone lesions, but with none or few of the systemic manifestations orjoint activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It is considered to be a benign variant of RA. This rare disease must be considered when a case of multiple subcutaneous nodules is encountered, even in aged males withoutjoint symptoms or deformities.

RESUMO

We report a case of Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) with necrosis of the fingers and toes and liver infarction. A 59-year-old man with asthma suddenly noticed that his fingers and toes felt unusually cold. This condition worsened progressively, and some digits became necrotic within several weeks. Laboratory studies revealed hypereosinophilia and an extremely elevated serum level of IgE. Digital subtraction angiography of the extremities revealed extensive irregular narrowing of small and medium-sized arteries in the extremities. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed an area of low density at the periphery of the right lobe of the liver. Angiography revealed irregular narrowing of small arteries that corresponded to the ischemic area. A nerve conduction study suggested sensory nerve neuropathy. The preceding asthma, acute onset of digital necrosis, liver infarction, neuropathy, and hypereosinophilia strongly suggested a diagnosis of CSS. The patient was treated with 40 mg of prednisolone and 120 micro g of intravenous prostaglandin E1 daily, and all the digits that had turned black and necrotic were amputated. After the amputation, the dose of prednisolone was gradually reduced, and no new lesions appeared on the skin or in the liver. The rare possible complications of CSS, including necrosis of digits and liver infarction, should not be ignored.
