RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the third most frequent urological neoplasia. Proper risk stratification is essential for adequate management. Various calculators are available. This project aims to evaluate the accuracy of the calculators applied to our patients. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study of the nephrectomies due to RCC performed from January 2008 to December 2013. We applied the most widely used predictive models (University of California, Los Angeles Integrated Staging System (UISS), Stage, Size, Grade and Necrosis (SSIGN), Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) and International Metastatic RCC Database Consortium (IMDC)) to stratify patients in different risk groups. We evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) or death caused by RCC (cancer-specific survival (CSS)) or other causes (overall survival (OS)). RESULTS: We analysed 238 patients. The 5-year OS, CSS and PFS were 76%, 85% and 83%, whereas the 10-year OS, CSS and PFS were 47%, 75% and 77%, respectively. The 5-year survival analysis by risk groups according to the prognostic models showed that the PFS was 0% and 20.4% in high- and intermediate-risk metastatic RCC (mRCC). Moreover, the PFS was 90%, 95.2% and 98.9% in localised high-, intermediate- and low-risk RCC according to the UISS (area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC): 0.93). The SSIGN model showed a CSS of 99% for the group with the lowest score and 5.3% for the group with the worst prognosis (AUC: 0.91). The OS of mRCC showed medians of 13.25 and 87 months according to MSKCC (AUC: 0.75) and 16, 23 and 85 months according to IMDC (AUC: 0.71) (high risk, intermediate and low). CONCLUSIONS: The validation of the predictive models carried out with our patients showed consistency in many of the results. Risk stratification should be implemented.

Introducción y objetivo: la fístula entre la arteria ilíaca y el conducto ileal (Bricker) es una patología con un elevado riesgo vital. El objetivo de este artículo es dar a conocer esta entidad, describir su presentación, sus métodos diagnósticos y su tratamiento basados en los casos en un hospital terciario y en la revisión de la literatura. Material y métodos: presentamos los casos de fístulas arterioileales ocurridos en nuestro centro entre 2016 y 2020. Se realizó una exhaustiva revisión de la literatura publicada hasta la fecha mediante la búsqueda en PubMed de artículos publicados entre 1971 y 2020, incluyendo las palabras claves arterial ileal conduit fistula y seleccionando únicamente los artículos en español e inglés. Resultados: se identificaron 4 casos en nuestro centro. Se reconocieron en la búsqueda bibliográfica 13 artículos que describían 16 casos de fístulas arterioileales. La mayoría compartía factores comunes de riesgo y el abordaje quirúrgico fue mayoritariamente la cirugía abierta. El abordaje adecuado parece ser la combinación de cirugía abierta y endovascular, efectiva en 3 de nuestros 4 casos. Conclusión: la fístula entre la arteria ilíaca y el conducto ileal es una complicación infrecuente y grave, con una mortalidad en torno al 44 %. Resulta difícil de diagnosticar, salvo que exista alta sospecha clínica, con pocos casos descritos en la literatura. Es fundamental tener en cuenta la historia clínica previa del paciente. (AU)
Introduction and objective: the presence of a fistula between the iliac artery and the ileal conduit is a live-threatening condition that must be known and, therefore, suspected after a massive bleeding through the ileal conduit. The objective of this article is to present the arterial-ileal fistula, describe its presentation, diagnostic methods, and treatments, based on the cases presented in a tertiary referral center and literature review. Material and methods: all cases of arterial-ileal fistulas collected at our center from 2016 through 2020 are presented here. A comprehensive literature review published to date was also conducted based on a search for articles published from 1971 through 2020 on the PubMed database with the keywords arterial ileal conduit fistula, including studies only published in English and Spanish languages. Results: a total of 4 cases were identified in our center. A total of 13 articles describing 16 cases of arterial-ileal fistula were identified from the medical literature, most of them with some risk factors in common. The approach followed was mainly open surgery. The proper treatment seems to be a combination between open surgery and endovascular approaches, which turned out to be effective in 3 of our 4 cases. Conclusion: a fistula between the artery and the ileal conduit is a rare but serious complication, with a 44% mortality rate. It is difficult to diagnose unless there is clinical suspicion involved, with only a few cases reported in the medical literature. We should consider the patients pathological history to identify this entity. (AU)
