RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of orchiopexy on testicular volume. To determine whether age at surgery impacts testicular volume. To determine whether paternity is associated with testicular volume. METHODS: Patients born between 1961 and 1985 who had undergone cryptorchidism surgery at the Pediatric Surgery Department of Miguel Servet University Hospital were included. Testis location and macroscopic appearance data were collected. Control testicular ultrasonographies and paternity surveys were carried out. Initially, the study was descriptive, and subsequently, inferential. RESULTS: Ultrasonography was performed in 216 testicular units a mean of 14.9 years following surgery, whereas the paternity survey was conducted among 157 respondents a mean of 41.9 years following surgery. There were significant differences (p = 0.0038) in testicular volume distribution according to epididymal dissociation. There was a linear correlation between older age at surgery and lower testicular volume, but without statistical significance. Significant differences (p < 0.0001) in testicular volume according to groups - operated and non-operated -, as well as between unilateral and bilateral cases, were found. No differences in paternity rates according to testicular volume were noted. CONCLUSION: Operated testes have lower volumes than normally descended testes. Older age at surgery may contribute to lower final volumes. Testes with full epididymal-testicular dissociation have lower total volumes. No relation between testicular volume and paternity rates was found. Further long-term studies are required.


OBJETIVOS: Determinar el efecto de la orquidopexia sobre el volumen testicular. Determinar si la edad de intervención afecta el volumen testicular. Determinar si la paternidad se asocia al volumen testicular. METODOS: Pacientes nacidos entre los años 1961 y 1985, intervenidos de criptorquidia por el Servicio de Cirugía Pediátrica del Hospital Universitario Miguel Servet, tomando datos de la localización del teste y aspecto macroscópico. Se realizan ecografías testiculares de control y encuestas de paternidad. Realizamos un estudio inicial descriptivo y posteriormente inferencial. RESULTADOS: La ecografía se realizó con una media de 14,9 años postoperatorios en 216 unidades testiculares y la encuesta de paternidad con una media 41,9 años postoperatorios a 157 participantes. Existen diferencias significativas (p = 0,0038) en la distribución del volumen testicular según disyunción del epidídimo. Hay correlación lineal entre mayor edad de tratamiento quirúrgico y menor volumen testicular sin llegar a significancia estadística. Se observan diferencias significativas (p < 0,0001) en el volumen testicular según grupos de operados y no operados, como también entre los unilaterales y los bilaterales. No se observan diferencias en índices de paternidad según volumen testicular. CONCLUSION: El teste intervenido presenta un volumen testicular menor que el teste de descenso normal. Una mayor edad de tratamiento quirúrgico puede contribuir a un menor volumen final del teste. Los testículos con disyunción epidídimo testicular completa, tienen menor volumen total. No observamos relación entre el volumen testicular y índices de paternidad. Más estudios a largo plazo son necesarios.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate ultrasound (US) sensitivity and specificity in suspected thyroglossal duct cysts (TGDC) undergoing surgery in our hospital, and their correlation with surgical findings. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective study of 150 patients undergoing surgery for midline neck mass suggestive of TGDC (2008-2018). We analyzed epidemiological variables and compared the correlation between diagnostic ultrasound imaging and surgical findings, considering previous episodes of local infection. RESULTS: Mean age at surgery was 3.96 years (0.75-12.58 years). Of the 150 patients, 81 were male and 69 were female. Following ultrasound examination, 110 were suspected to have TGDC, and diagnosis was confirmed after surgery in 80 cases. Of the remaining 40 cases without TGDC-compatible US examination, TGDC was confirmed in 15 cases. The rest were diagnosed with dermoid cyst (49), lymphadenopathy (4), and vascular malformation (2). US sensitivity was 84%, while specificity was 45%, with a positive predictive value of 73%, and a negative predictive value of 62%. In 62.1% (59) of TGDCs, a previous infection episode had been described, with 16.7% of cases requiring surgical drainage. 13.6% had recurrence after Sistrunk technique. There was no statistically significant relationship between previous infection episodes and postsurgical recurrence, or between surgical or spontaneous drainage and cyst recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Even though US role in eutopic thyroid gland identification cannot be doubted, it provides with low specificity in the study of midline neck masses. Therefore, the physician's opinion should be prioritized.


OBJETIVO: Evaluar la sensibilidad y especificidad de la ecografía en las sospechas de quistes del conducto tirogloso (QCT) intervenidas en nuestro centro y su correlación con los hallazgos quirúrgicos. MATERIAL Y METODOS: Estudio retrospectivo de 150 pacientes intervenidos por nódulo en línea media cervical sugestivo de QCT (2008-2018). Recogida de variables epidemiológicas y comparación de la correlación de imagen ecográfica con hallazgos quirúrgicos, considerando la presencia de episodios de sobreinfección previos. RESULTADOS: La edad media de intervención fue de 3,96 años (0,75-12,58 años), siendo 69 mujeres y 81 hombres. De 150 pacientes, 110 presentaron ecografía compatible con QCT, confirmándose el diagnóstico por anatomía patológica en 80 casos. De los 40 pacientes con ecografía no compatible, en 15 se confirmó diagnóstico de QCT. En 95 pacientes del total se identificó QCT. El resto fueron diagnosticados de quiste dermoide (49), adenopatía (4) y malformación vascular (2). La sensibilidad ecográfica fue del 84% y la especificidad del 45%, el valor predictivo positivo del 73% y valor predictivo negativo del 62%. El 62,1% (59) de los QCT tuvo episodio de sobreinfección, precisando drenaje quirúrgico 16,7%. El 13,6% presentó recidiva tras técnica de Sistrunk. No se encontró relación estadísticamente significativa entre episodios previos de infección y recidiva postquirúrgica, ni entre drenaje (espontáneo o quirúrgico) y recidiva del quiste. CONCLUSIONES: A pesar de la importancia de la ecografía para valorar tiroides eutópico en sospechas de QCT, su resultado en el estudio de quistes cervicales tiene baja especificidad, debiendo primar el criterio del facultativo.

RESUMO

Objetivo. La hipertrofia de labios menores en la adolescencia es una patología poco conocida. Ante la creciente demanda de pacientes con este problema, fue necesaria su inclusión en nuestra cartera de servicios. El objetivo del presente estudio es la valoración de los resultados estéticos y funcionales de la labioplastia mediante la resección simple lineal de los bordes labiales. Métodos. Revisamos a pacientes intervenidas por hipertrofia de labios menores. Evaluando resultados estéticos, funcionales y complicaciones quirúrgicas. Asimismo, realizamos una encuesta sobre el grado de satisfacción. Resultados. Intervenimos 16 pacientes con 28 labioplastias, indicadas por molestias con la vestimenta y el ejercicio. Se realizaron a una mediana de edad de 13,43 años (rango 11,25-14,31). Siendo bilaterales 11 (64,7%), izquierdos 4 (23,5%) y derechos 2 (11,8%). La mediana de estancia hospitalaria fue un día (rango 1-3). Se evidenció una complicación inmediata (3,57%) (dehiscencia parcial de la herida) y 2 (7,14%) tardías (granuloma en la cicatriz y recidiva), en una mediana de seguimiento de 1,58 años (rango 0,19-7,76). A la encuesta respondieron 13 pacientes, el 100% refirieron que las molestias preoperatorias estaban resueltas o mucho mejor; el 61,54% no indicó ninguna o muy pocas molestias postoperatorias (tirantez o dolor), siendo la mediana de tiempo de las molestias 5 días (rango 1-30). Sintieron una mejora de la autoestima el 69,23% y el 30,77% restante nunca presentaron problema al respecto. La mediana de grado de satisfacción global fue 8 (rango 7-10) y el 100% repetirían la cirugía. Conclusión. La labioplastia mediante resección simple en la adolescencia es una técnica efectiva con pocas complicaciones, y con un alto grado de satisfacción para las pacientes


Objective. Hypertrophy of labia minora in adolescence is a little known disease. However, the growing demand for the solution of this problem pushes us to include it in our clinical practice. We evaluated the aesthetic and functional results of labiaplasty using straight amputation of the protuberant tissue of the labial edges. Methods. Patients treated by hypertrophy of labia minora were reviewed. We evaluated the results of aesthetic, functional and surgical complications. A survey on the degree of satisfaction was also conducted. Results. We collected 16 patients with 28 labioplasty, indicated by discomfort with the clothing and exercise. They were performed at a median age of 13.43 years (range 11.25-14.31). Bilateral 11 (64.7%), left 4(23.5%) and rights 2 (11.8%). The median hospital stay was 1 day (range 1-3). There was evidence of immediate complications (partial dehiscence of the scar) in 1 (3.57%) patient and late complications in 2 (7.14%) patients (granuloma in the scar and recurrence), in a median follow up time of 1.58 years (range 0.19-7.76). The survey was answered by 13 patients. All of them said that preoperative discomfort was resolved. Postoperative discomfort (pain or straps) were nothing or very few in 61.54% and the median time of inconvenience was 5 days (range 1-30). They felt an improvement in self-esteem 69.23% and the 30.77% remaining never presented a problem about that. Median overall satisfaction was 8 (range 7-10) over 10, and the 100% of patients would repeat surgery. Conclusion. The labiaplasty by straight amputation in adolescence is an effective technique with few complications, and with a high degree of satisfaction for patients

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Treatment of esophageal atresia with "long gap" remains difficult and controversial. According to the idea that esophageal anastomosis is imposible in most cases, several esophageal substitution methods have been proposed, as esophagocoloplasty, gastric transposition or reversed gastric tube. Nevertheless reconstruction of native esophagus is accepted as the best option if posible. "Long gap" definition is imprecise, expressed by variability in percent of these cases in total esophageal atresias reported in different series in literature. We report our experience in seven cases type I esophageal atresia with long gap and the different therapeutic options used, with attention to delayed or early esophageal anastomosis feasibility and outcome. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We have treated 121 patients with esophageal atresia from whom we analized 7 cases with pure esophageal atresia with "long gap" (5.8%). Six patients underwent gastrostomy and two gastrostomy and esophagostomy. Five patient underwent primary repair with esophageal anastomosis, delayed between 14 days and 4 months in 4 cases. One patient underwent esophageal anastomosis in the first day without gastrostomy. Retroesternal esophagocoloplasty was performed in 2 patients about their first year of life. Esophagogram was done in first month after surgery and pH monitoring of gastroesophageal reflux. Follow-up ranged from 6 months to 28 years. RESULTS: Esophageal anastomosis was feasible in all 5 patients in whom it was tried. Stricture occurred in two patients, one patient underwent anastomotic resection and new esophageal anastomosis. Esophageal reflux was present in two patients, one of them required funduplication. One patient was dead by complications of cardiac malformation. Remaining patients have normal swallowing and are in normal growth curves. Patients with esophagocoloplasty had not relevant early or late complications. CONCLUSIONS: In most pure esophageal atresia, delayed or even early esophageal anastomosis is feasible, making use of surgical and anesthesic sources that favour it. Esophageal substitution techniques can be reserved if this approach fails.

RESUMO

Introducción. El tratamiento de la atresia de esófago con gran distancia entre bolsones (long gap) sigue siendo difícil y controvertido. Se han utilizado diversos métodos de sustitución esofágica considerando que en muchos casos la anastomosis esofágica es imposible. Sin embargo se acepta que la conservación del propio esófago es la mejor opción si es posible. La definición de long gap es imprecisa, como lo demuestra el variable porcentaje que representan estos casos en las distintas series de la literatura. Revisamos 7 casos de atresia de esófago tipo I con long gap y las diversas opciones terapéuticas que se utilizaron, analizando la posibilidad y evolución de una anastomosis esofágica diferida o precoz. Material y métodos. Se analizan 7 casos de atresia de esófago tipo I de un total de 121 casos de atresia de esófago (5,8%). En 6 pacientes se realizó gastrostomía y se añadió esofagostomía en 2 de ellos. En cinco pacientes se realizó anastomosis esofágica primaria, diferida en 4 casos entre 14 días y 4 meses de vida. En un paciente se realizó anastomosis esofágica primaria en el primer día de vida, sin gastrostomía. En dos pacientes se realizó esofagocoloplastia al final del primer año de vida. Se realizó tránsito esofágico en el primer mes postoperatorio y control del reflujo gastroesofágico (RGE) con pHmetría. El período de seguimiento oscila entre 6 meses y 28 años. Resultados. La anastomosis esofágica terminoterminal fue quirúrgicamente posible en los 5 pacientes en los que se intentó. En dos pacientes se produjo una estenosis, requiriendo uno de ellos reintervención con nueva anastomosis. Dos pacientes presentaron RGE, realizándose en uno de ellos funduplicatura gastroesofágica. Un paciente falleció a consecuencia de su malformación cardíaca. Los demás pacientes presentan buen desarrollo ponderoestatural con una deglución normal. Los dos pacientes tratados mediante esofagocoloplastia no presentaron complicaciones graves precoces o tardías. Conclusiones. En la mayoría de las atresias de esófago tipo I es factible la anastomosis esofágica terminoterminal, de forma diferida o precoz, utilizando los recursos quirúrgicos y anestésicos que permiten su realización. Las técnicas de sustitución esofágica pueden quedar reservadas en caso de que fracase esta estrategia (AU)

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Waterston's prognostic classification of esophageal atresia has been used in most hospitals throughout the world. A number of technical advances, mainly in neonatal intensive care units have contributed to a reduction in mortality. Although the Waterston classification continues to be widely used, increased survival in the highest risk groups in this classification has led to new classifications being described in the last few years. OBJECTIVE: To determine the influence of birth weight and cardiac anomaly on the outcome of patients with esophageal atresia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The outcome of 100 infants with esophageal atresia was analyzed. The patients were divided chronologically into two groups according to advances in ICUs and surgical techniques: 45 patients treated in the first period (1971-1982) and 55 in the second (1983-2000). The influence of birth weight in the groups described by Waterston and Spitz and the association with cardiac malformation were compared between both periods. RESULTS: Mortality in the birth weight groups described by Waterston decreased significantly between periods but this decrease was lower when the birth weight groups at highest risk described by the Spitz (1,500 g) were compared. Survival in patients with esophageal atresia improved from the first period (57.8 %) to the second (80 %) but mortality was still high when an associated major cardiac anomaly was present (80 % vs 75 %). CONCLUSIONS: Although advances in the medical and surgical management of neonates have rendered birth weight less important to prognosis than previously, mortality continues to be high in patients with very low weight and major cardiac malformation.

RESUMO

Antecedentes: La clasificación pronóstica de Waterston para la atresia de esófago ha sido utilizada por la mayoría de los hospitales del mundo. Una serie de avances técnicos, fundamentalmente en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI) neonatal, han contribuido a reducir su mortalidad. Aunque la clasificación de Waterston continúa siendo empleada, se han descrito nuevas clasificaciones durante los últimos años, debido a la insatisfacción que ésta ha producido como consecuencia del aumento de la supervivencia en los grupos de Waterston de peor pronóstico. Objetivo: Determinar la influencia que tiene el peso al nacer y la malformación cardíaca sobre el pronóstico de los pacientes con atresia de esófago. Material y métodos: Se ha analizado el pronóstico de 100 niños con atresia de esófago. Los casos se dividieron cronológicamente en 2 grupos con relación a los avances en la UCI y en las técnicas quirúrgicas: 45 pacientes tratados en el primer período (1971-1982) y 55 en el segundo (1983-2000). Se comparó, entre ambos grupos, la influencia que tenían el peso, según los grupos descritos por Waterston y Spitz, y la asociación de malformación cardíaca. Resultados: La mortalidad de los grupos de peso descritos por Waterston disminuyó de manera significativa entre ambos períodos, pero no fue tan importante al comparar los grupos de peso de peor pronóstico de Spitz (< 1.500 g). Aunque la supervivencia de los pacientes con atresia de esófago mejoró desde el primer período (57,8%) al segundo (80%), persistió una mortalidad alta cuando el paciente asociaba una malformación cardíaca grave (80% frente a 75%). Conclusiones: Aunque los avances en el tratamiento médico y quirúrgico de la atresia de esófago han hecho que el peso de nacimiento sea menos importante para el pronóstico durante los últimos años sugerimos que los pacientes con muy bajo peso y los que asocian una malformación cardíaca grave continúan teniendo una mortalidad elevada (AU)

RESUMO

Before of the implantation of ultrasound there were few cases of ovarian cysts reported in literature because only the very large ones or those which result in mechanical complications produce symptoms. The authors report 17 cases of neonatal ovarian cysts diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound. All of the infants were asymptomatic after birth despite their size or being twisted. The diameter of the cysts varied from 2.5 to 10 cm. Five neonates were treated conservatively and the cysts resolved spontaneously. 12 infants underwent surgery following postnatal confirmation, 9 of these patients had complex ovarian cysts and at laparotomy all of them had torsion of the ovary, three of them were autoamputated, and 3 uncomplicated cysts because their large size or their association to a nephroblastoma. Simple cysts of the ovary tend to resolve spontaneously and therefore, must be treated conservatively. Complex cysts or simple ones larger than 4 cm that do not disappear should undergo surgical removal.

RESUMO

Eight patients with anorectal incontinence because of anorectal atresia, aged between seven and seventeen years, following surgical treatment with Romualdi-Soave procedure in seven cases and with PSARP in one case, have received biofeedback training to improve their continence. Clinical evaluation has been performed with a new numeric punctuation method that allows a quantitative and precise appraisal of incontinence (Incontinence Punctuation: IP). From a clinical point of view, biofeedback training has increased 4.16 points IP in patients in whom the method has been effective. It has prolonged the mean duration of voluntary contraction in 5.9 sec. and elevated in 13.6 mm. Hg. the maximal pressure contraction.
