RESUMO

OBJETIVE: To assess the ability of an artificial intelligence software to detect pneumothorax in chest radiographs done after percutaneous transthoracic biopsy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We included retrospectively in our study adult patients who underwent CT-guided percutaneous transthoracic biopsies from lung, pleural or mediastinal lesions from June 2019 to June 2020, and who had a follow-up chest radiograph after the procedure. These chest radiographs were read to search the presence of pneumothorax independently by an expert thoracic radiologist and a radiodiagnosis resident, whose unified lecture was defined as the gold standard, and the result of each radiograph after interpretation by the artificial intelligence software was documented for posterior comparison with the gold standard. RESULTS: A total of 284 chest radiographs were included in the study and the incidence of pneumothorax was 14.4%. There were no discrepancies between the two readers' interpretation of any of the postbiopsy chest radiographs. The artificial intelligence software was able to detect 41/41 of the present pneumothorax, implying a sensitivity of 100% and a negative predictive value of 100%, with a specificity of 79.4% and a positive predictive value of 45%. The accuracy was 82.4%, indicating that there is a high probability that an individual will be adequately classified by the software. It has also been documented that the presence of Port-a-cath is the cause of 8 of the 50 of false positives by the software. CONCLUSIONS: The software has detected 100% of cases of pneumothorax in the postbiopsy chest radiographs. A potential use of this software could be as a prioritisation tool, allowing radiologists not to read immediately (or even not to read) chest radiographs classified as non-pathological by the software, with the confidence that there are no pathological cases.

RESUMO

Las manifestaciones cutáneas de los tumores malignos comprenden un grupo de dermatosis que pueden ser marcadores de la presencia de neoplasias ocultas y permiten su diagnóstico oportuno. El objetivo de este informe es presentar las características clínicas de una acantosis nigricans asociada a carcinoma de mamario. Para ello, se describe el caso clínico de una paciente de 50 años, color de piel negro, asistida en la consulta de Dermatología del Policlínico Universitario Raúl Sánchez, por tener una placa única eritematosa localizada en la mama izquierda, acompañada de dolor, aumento de la temperatura local y máculas hipercrómicas en las axilas; así como adenopatías axilares múltiples. Los exámenes complementarios mostraron la presencia de acantosis nigricans maligna asociada a un carcinoma inflamatorio de la mama izquierda. Fue intervenida quirúrgicamente, con la consiguiente desaparición de las lesiones cutáneas, pero con un pronóstico reservado. La mayoría de los síndromes paraneoplásicos son inespecíficos; existe una necesidad urgente de sospechar una correlación entre los cambios cutáneos y la posibilidad de una neoplasia interna, por lo que es de suma importancia derivar a estos pacientes para su identificación y el diagnóstico precoz de la enfermedad de base. Esto mejoraría el pronóstico y atenuaría en gran medida las consecuencias.


The skin manifestations of malignant tumors include a group of dermatoses that can be the sign of the occult neoplasms presence and allow their timely diagnosis. The objective of this report is to present the acanthosis nigricans' clinical characteristics associated with breast carcinoma. The clinical case of a 50-years-old black-skinned patient is described, assisted in the Dermatology consultation of the Raúl Sánchez University Polyclinic, for having a single erythematous plaque located in the left breast, accompanied by pain, increased local temperature and hyperchromic macules in the armpits; as well as multiple axillary lymphadenopathy. Complementary examinations showed the presence of malignant acanthosis nigricans associated with an inflammatory carcinoma of the left breast. She underwent surgery, with the consequent disappearance of the skin lesions, but with a reserved prognosis. Most paraneoplastic syndromes are nonspecific; there is an urgent need to suspect a correlation between skin changes and the possibility of an internal neoplasia, so it is of utmost importance to refer these patients for identification and early diagnosis of the underlying disease. This would improve the prognosis and greatly mitigate the consequences.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the long-term outcomes of renal tumor ablation, analyzing efficacy, long-term survival, and factors associated with complications and therapeutic success. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 305 ablations (generally done with expandable electrodes) of 273 renal tumors between May 2005 and April 2019. We analyzed survival, primary and secondary efficacy, and complications according to various patient factors and tumor characteristics. RESULTS: Mean blood creatinine was 1.14 mg/dL before treatment and 1.30 mg/dL after treatment (p < 0.0001). Complications were observed in 13.25% of the ablations, including major complications in in 4.97%. Complications were associated with age (p = 0.013) and tumor diameter (p < 0.0001). Primary efficacy was 96.28%. Incomplete ablation was more common in lesions measuring > 4 cm in diameter (p = 0.002). Secondary efficacy was 95.28%. The only factor associated with the risk of recurrence was the size of the tumor (p = 0.02). Overall survival was 95.26% at 1 year, 77.01% at 5 years, and 51.78% at 10 years, with no differences between patients with malignant and benign lesions. Mortality was higher in patients with creatinine >1 (p = 0.05) or ASA > 2 (p = 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Percutaneous ablation is extremely efficacious for renal tumors; it improves the prognosis of renal carcinoma to the point where it does not differ from that of benign lesions. Complications are rare. Like survival, complications are associated with age and overall health status.

RESUMO

El diagnóstico definitivo del cáncer de ovario precisa de confirmación histológica. En determinadas situaciones, para evitar la morbilidad de la resección quirúrgica, es posible hacer una biopsia guiada por ecografía para obtener el diagnóstico anatomopatológico. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática fue evaluar la adecuación, fiabilidad, precisión y perfil de seguridad de la biopsia guiada por ecografía de masas ováricas. Siguiendo el modelo PRISMA 2020, se hizo una búsqueda bibliográfica en PubMed, Embase y Scopus y se recopilaron un total de 10.245 artículos, de los cuales 24 fueron finalmente incluidos. Los trabajos incluían de forma mayoritaria pacientes con tumores inoperables avanzados, pobre performance status y otros factores de mal pronóstico, con masas de contenido sólido y márgenes irregulares, generalmente accesibles por vía transvaginal. En la mayoría de los artículos las pacientes presentaban historia previa de malignidad o tumores inoperables en estadios avanzados. Las masas ováricas biopsiables se definían en la ecografía como malignas o potencialmente malignas, con la presencia destacada de un componente sólido o mixto con márgenes irregulares o heterogéneos. La técnica más utilizada en los estudios incluidos fue la biopsia con aguja gruesa o tru-cut, con altos valores de adecuación, fiabilidad, precisión y rendimiento, así como un buen perfil de seguridad y bajas tasas de complicaciones. En conclusión, la biopsia con aguja gruesa de las masas anexiales guiada por ecografía, en pacientes subsidiarios de tratamiento neoadyuvante, es una técnica con altas tasas de adecuación, fiabilidad, precisión y buen perfil de seguridad.(AU)


The definitive diagnosis of ovarian cancer requires histological confirmation. In certain situations, to avoid the morbidity of surgical resection, it is possible to perform an ultrasound-guided biopsy to obtain the pathological diagnosis. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the adequacy, reliability, accuracy, and safety profile of ultrasound-guided biopsy of ovarian masses. Following the PRISMA 2020 model, a bibliographic search was carried out in PubMed, Embase and Scopus, collecting a total of 10,245 articles, of which 24 were finally included. The studies mainly included patients with advanced inoperable tumors, poor performance status and other poor prognostic factors, with masses of solid content and irregular margins, generally accessible through the transvaginal route. In most of the articles, the patients had a previous history of malignancy or had inoperable tumors in advanced stages. Biopsiable ovarian masses were defined ultrasonographically as malignant or potentially malignant, mainly highlighting the presence of a solid or mixed component and irregular or heterogeneous margins. The most widely used technique in the included studies was core needle or tru-cut biopsy, presenting high values of adequacy, reliability, precision and performance, as well as a good safety profile with low complication rates. In conclusion, ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy of adnexal masses in patients eligible for neoadjuvant treatment is a technique with high adequacy, reliability, and precision rates, as well as a good safety profile.(AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: Valorar resultados a largo plazo de la ablación de tumores renales analizando eficacia, supervivencia a largo plazo y factores asociados con complicaciones y éxito terapéutico. Material y métodos: Revisión retrospectiva de 305 ablaciones, en general usando radiofrecuencia con electrodos desplegables, sobre 273 lesiones de tumores renales entre mayo de 2005 y abril de 2019. Se analizaron supervivencia, eficacia primaria y secundaria y complicaciones relacionándolas con diversos factores del paciente y características de los tumores tratados. Resultados: La creatinina en sangre media previa al tratamiento fue de 1,14 mg/dL y al año de 1,30 mg/dL (p <0,0001). Hubo complicaciones en el 13,25% de las ablaciones (mayores, 4,97%) que se relacionaron con la edad (p=0,013) y el diámetro tumoral (p <0,0001). La eficacia primaria fue del 96,28%. Las lesiones de más de 4 cm fueron más propensas a presentar ablaciones incompletas (p=0,002). La eficacia secundaria fue del 95,28%. El riesgo de recurrencia se relacionó solo con el tamaño del tumor (p=0,02). La supervivencia global fue del 95,26% al año, 77,01% a los 5 años y 51,78% a los 10 años. No se observaron diferencias en función de la naturaleza maligna o benigna de la lesión tratada. La mortalidad aumentaba en pacientes con creatinina superior a 1 (p=0,05) o ASA >2 (p=0,0001). Conclusiones: La ablación percutánea de tumores renales es una técnica de altísima eficacia, que permite igualar el pronóstico de un carcinoma renal, tras el tratamiento, al de una lesión benigna. Las complicaciones son muy infrecuentes y se relacionan, al igual que la supervivencia, con la edad y el estado de salud del paciente.(AU)

RESUMO

La evaluación de la enfermedad hepática parenquimal suele comprender exámenes de laboratorio y de imagen; sin embargo, en algunos casos se puede requerir una biopsia hepática. La biopsia del hígado guiada por endosonografía se ha reportado como un procedimiento con un rendimiento diagnóstico entre 90 a 100% con un perfil bajo de eventos adversos; sin embargo, no existen estudios que reporten la experiencia y el tipo de técnica empleada en nuestro país. Objetivo: Determinar la efectividad y la seguridad de la biopsia hepática guiada por endosonografía en enfermedad hepática parenquimal. Materiales y métodos: Estudio prospectivo realizado en un hospital público de nivel de atención III-2 en Lima, Perú, el cual incluyó pacientes mayores de 18 años con sospecha de alguna enfermedad hepática parenquimal que fueron sometidos a una biopsia guiada por endosonografía desde marzo del 2018 a octubre del 2022. Resultados: El rendimiento diagnóstico de las biopsias fue de 77,02%, con una longitud media de la muestra obtenida de 13,98 mm (desviación estándar 7,34) y una mediana de 8 espacios porta completos (0-50). Cabe mencionar que solo un 31.25% de procedimientos se realizaron con aguja fina de biopsia (FNB), encontrándose una diferencia significativa entre el tipo de aguja y el rendimiento diagnóstico (p=0,01). El diagnóstico histopatológico más frecuente el de hepatitis autoinmune. Y existieron un 2,08% de complicaciones post procedimiento. Conclusiones: Las biopsias guiadas por endosonografía para el diagnóstico de enfermedad parenquimal hepática tienen una efectividad cercana al 80% en nuestro medio y con un perfil bajo de eventos adversos; sin embargo, se necesitan estudios prospectivos y con un mayor número de pacientes.


Parenchymal liver diseases are commonly evaluated by laboratory and imaging studies. However, in some cases a liver biopsy is required. Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided liver biopsy (EUS-LB) has been reported as a procedure with high diagnostic yield (90-100%) with low adverse event profile, but there are not studies which report about the experience and technique in our country. Objective: Determinate the effectiveness and the safety of endosonography-guided liver biopsy in liver parenchymal disease. Materials and methods: A prospective study was conducted at a III-2 level of care Public Hospital in Lima, Peru. It included patients over 18 years of age with suspicion of parenchymal liver disease who underwent EUS-LB for study hepatic parenchymal disease since March of 2018 to October of 2022. Results: The diagnostic yield of the biopsies was 77.02%, with a mean length of the sample of 13.98mm (standard deviation 7.34) and a median of 8 complete portal spaces (0-50). Only 31.25% of the procedures were performed with a fine needle biopsy (FNB), finding a significant difference between the type of needle and the diagnostic yield (p=0.01). The most common histopathological diagnosis was autoinmune hepatitis. There were 2.08% of post-procedure complications. Conclusions: EUS-LB for the diagnosis of liver parenchymal disease had a diagnostic yield close to 80% in our region with a low profile of adverse events. However, more prospectives studies with a larger number of patients are required.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality in Mexican women. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to identify concordances among core needle biopsy (CNB) and excisional biopsies (EB) regarding diagnosis, hormonal receptors (HR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Core number, demographic data, histological type, and treatment were documented for each sample. Reported HR and Her2 score from both samples were compiled. RESULTS: 70 women with both CNB/EB were included. Median age was 58 (36-87) years; initial diagnosis in CNB were invasive ductal 56 (80%), lobular 10 (14%), and mixed 4 (6%) carcinomas. Diagnostic agreement among CNB and EB was of 97%, k = 0.65. A concordance of 92% (k = 0.75), 75% (k = 0.26), and 67% (k = 0.46) was observed for estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and Her2 determinations, and positive predictive values in CNB were 0.96, 0.89, and 0.44, respectively. CONCLUSION: HR and Her2 concordances using manual-immunohistochemistry (IHC) were found within the range of values obtained using automatized-IHC. When compared to tumor heterogeneity, technical/reading errors contribute more to discordances.


INTRODUCTION: El cáncer de mama es la principal causa de mortalidad por cáncer en mujeres mexicanas. OBJETIVO: Identificar la concordancia entre la biopsia con aguja de corte (BAC) y la biopsia escisional (BE) con respecto al diagnóstico, receptores hormonales (RH) y Her2. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se registró el número de fragmentos cilíndricos, datos demográficos, tipo histológico y tratamiento. Se recopilaron resultados de RH y Her2. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 70 mujeres con mediana de edad de 58 años. El diagnóstico inicial en BAC fue carcinoma ductal invasivo 56 (80%), lobular 10 (14%) y mixtos 4 (6%). El acuerdo de diagnóstico entre BAC y BE fue del 97%, k = 0.65. Se observó una concordancia de 92% (k = 0.75), 75% (k = 0.26) y 67% (k = 0.46) para las determinaciones de receptor de estrógenos (RE), receptor de progesterona (RP) y Her2, y los valores predictivos positivos en BAC fueron 0.96, 0.89 y 0.44, respectivamente. CONCLUSIÓN: Los RH y la concordancia de Her2 mediante inmunohistoquímica (IHC) manual se encuentran dentro del rango de valores obtenidos mediante el uso de IHC automatizada. Los errores técnicos/de lectura contribuyeron más a discordancia que la heterogeneidad tumoral.

RESUMO

Introducción: El nódulo tiroideo es un hallazgo común en la actualidad y, por sus características ecográficas, constituye una lesión distinta al parénquima glandular, con una prevalencia alta en la población general. Objetivo: Describir el uso del sistema Bethesda como método de diagnóstico de nódulos tiroideos y el grado de malignidad. Métodos: Se efectuó un estudio descriptivo y retrospectivo de 1771 pacientes con diagnóstico de nódulo tiroideo, a quienes se les realizó citología por aspiración con aguja fina en el Departamento de Anatomía Patológica del Hospital General Docente Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso de Santiago de Cuba durante el cuatrienio 2016-2019. Resultados: En la serie predominó el grupo etario de 41-50 años y la edad media fue de 49,51±13,14 años. Asimismo, sobresalió la categoría II del sistema Bethesda (73,8 %); en tanto, de los 204 diagnosticados correspondientes a la categoría III, 111 fueron intervenidos quirúrgicamente y 29 de estos presentaron neoplasias malignas (27,6 %). El grado de malignidad osciló entre 22,8 y 36,0 %. Conclusiones: La aplicación del sistema Bethesda fue muy útil para el diagnóstico citopatológico de nódulos tiroideos y el grado de malignidad se correspondió con cifras adecuadas.


Introduction: The thyroid nodule is a common finding nowadays and, for its echographic characteristics, it constitutes a lesion different to the glandular parenchyma, with a high prevalence in the general population. Objective: To describe the use of the Bethesda system as diagnostic method of thyroid nodules and the degree of malignancy. Methods: A descriptive and retrospective study of 1 771 patients with diagnosis of thyroid nodule was carried out, who underwent fine needle aspiration cytology, in the Pathology Department of Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba during 2016-2019. Results: In the series there was a prevalence of the 41-50 age group and the mean age was of 49,51±13,14 years. Also, the category II of the Bethesda system was notable (73.8 %); as long as, of the 204 diagnosed corresponding to the category III, 111 were surgically intervened and 29 of them presented mlignancy (27.6 %). The degree of malignancy oscillated between 22.8 and 36.0 %. Conclusions: The application of the Bethesda system was very useful for the cytopathologic diagnosis of thyroid nodules and the degree of malignancy corresponded with appropriate figures.

RESUMO

Los quistes constituyen una cavidad patológica revestida por una pared de tejido conectivo definida y con un tapiz epitelial. Se tuvo como objetivo determinar la correlación de los diagnósticos clínico y citológico en los quistes congénitos Cervicofaciales. Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo de los pacientes con diagnóstico clínico, citológico y/o histológico de quiste tirogloso, branquial y demodé, atendidos en el hospital Universitario Carlos Manuel de Céspedes de Bayamo, durante cinco años. Se calculó la sensibilidad, especificidad y seguridad del diagnóstico clínico y la biopsia por aspiración con aguja fina (FNAC) para cada quiste. El diagnóstico clínico fue de 93,3%, 60,0% y el 100,0 % para los quistes tirogloso branquial y dermoide respectivamente. Encontramos mayor tendencia al error clínico en los quistes branquiales, donde las confusiones más frecuentes se presentan con linfoadenopatías inflamatorias. El diagnóstico por aspiración con aguja fina fue de 93.3% y el 60% para los quistes tirogloso y branquial respectivamente. Se concluyó que el diagnóstico clínico no es suficiente en ocasiones, por lo que es preciso recurrir a medios diagnósticos complementarios, como la biopsia por aspiración con aguja fina; sin embargo esta prueba no es 100% segura.


Cysts constitute a pathological cavity lined by a defined connective tissue wall and with an epithelial tapestry. The objective was to determine the correlation of clinical and cytological diagnoses in congenital cervicofacial cysts. A retrospective study of patients with clinical, cytological and/or histological diagnosis of thyroglossal, branchial and demodé cysts, attended at the Carlos Manuel de Céspedes University Hospital in Bayamo, for five years, was conducted. We calculated the sensitivity, specificity and safety of clinical diagnosis and fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAC) for each cyst. The clinical diagnosis was 93.3%, 60.0% and 100.0% for branchial thyroglossal and dermoid cysts respectively. We found a greater tendency to clinical error in branchial cysts, where the most frequent confusions occur with inflammatory lymphadenopathy. The diagnosis by fine needle aspiration was 93.3% and 60% for thyroglossal and branchial cysts respectively. It was concluded that clinical diagnosis is sometimes not sufficient, so it is necessary to resort to complementary diagnostic means, such as fine needle aspiration biopsy; However, this test is not 100% safe.

O objetivo foi determinar a correlação dos diagnósticos clínicos e citológicos em cistos cervicofaciais. Foi realizado um estudo retrospectivo de pacientes com diagnóstico clínico, citológico e/ou histológico de cistos tireoglossos, branquiais e demodé, atendidos no Hospital Universitário Carlos Manuel de Céspedes, em Bayamo, por cinco anos. Foram calculadas a sensibilidade, especificidade e segurança do diagnóstico clínico e da punção aspirativa por agulha fina (PAAF) para cada cisto. O diagnóstico clínico foi de 93,3%, 60,0% e 100,0% para cistos branquiais tireoglosso e dermóide, respectivamente. Encontramos maior tendência ao erro clínico nos cistos branquiais, onde as confusões mais frequentes ocorrem com linfadenopatia inflamatória. O diagnóstico por punção aspirativa por agulha fina foi de 93,3% e 60% para cistos tireoglossos e branquiais, respectivamente. Concluiu-se que o diagnóstico clínico às vezes não é suficiente, sendo necessário recorrer a meios diagnósticos complementares, como a punção aspirativa por agulha fina; No entanto, este teste não é 100% seguro.

Se expone el caso de un paciente de 19 años, sin antecedentes médicos, con historia de traumatismo en el muslo derecho, que tuvo acortamiento, edema, rotación del miembro inferior derecho y dolor. En la radiografía se identificó una fractura en el tercio proximal de fragmentos múltiples de la diáfisis con engrosamiento y reacción perióstica que generaron una sospecha de un tumor óseo. La resonancia magnética confirmó una neoplasia ósea de características malignas en el tercio superior del fémur con destrucción de la cortical e invasión del canal endomedular sin signos de lesiones metastásicas. La biopsia confirmó el diagnóstico de sarcoma de Ewing localizado. El manejo intrahospitalario consistió en antiinflamatorios e inmovilización del miembro inferior derecho por 21 días. Luego, recibió tres ciclos de quimioterapia con el esquema para sarcoma de Ewing fase I. Además, se indicó terapia física, tratamiento ambulatorio con analgésico, radioterapia y finalmente se practicará la resección parcial de cadera. Se evidenció disminución del edema local, control del dolor con medicamentos orales y recuperación de la movilidad, aunque mantuvo la limitación funcional del miembro inferior derecho que imposibilita la bipedestación y la deambulación


A 19-year-old patient, with no previous medical history, with a history of trauma to the right thigh, presented with shortening, edema, rotation of the right lower limb and pain. Radiography identified a fracture in the proximal third of multiple fragments of the diaphysis with thickening and periosteal reaction that generated a suspicion of a bone tumor. MRI confirmed a bone neoplasm of malignant characteristics in the upper third of the femur with destruction of the cortex and invasion of the end medullary canal without signs of metastatic lesions. The biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of localized Ewing's sarcoma. The intrahospital management consisted of anti-inflammatory drugs and immobilization of the right lower limb for 21 days. Then, she received three cycles of chemotherapy with the Ewing sarcoma phase 1 scheme. In addition, physical therapy, outpatient treatment with analgesic, radiotherapy and finally partial hip resection was indicated. There was a decrease in local edema, pain control with oral medications, mobility was recovered, although the functional limitation of the right lower limb was maintained, making it impossible to stand and walk

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To determine the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided core-needle biopsy in thyroid nodules after two inconclusive fine-needle aspiration biopsies. To assess the complications of core-needle biopsy. To analyze the reliability of diagnoses obtained with core-needle biopsy. To measure the economic impact of avoiding lobectomies in patients with benign core-needle biopsy findings. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study reviewed 195 core-needle biopsies in 178 patients. To determine the reliability of the core-needle biopsy findings, we compared the diagnosis from the core-needle specimen versus the histologic findings in the surgical specimens when core-needle biopsy findings indicated malignancy or follicular proliferation and versus the stability of the nodule on ultrasound follow-up for one year when core-biopsy findings indicated benignity. RESULTS: Core-needle biopsy yielded a diagnosis for 179 (91.7%) nodules, of which 122 (62.5%) were classified as benign, 50 (25.6%) as follicular proliferation, and 7 (3.6%) as malignant. The findings were inconclusive for 16 (8.3%) nodules. Minor complications were observed in 4 (2%) patients; no major complications were observed. The sensitivity of core-needle biopsy for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer was low (42.8%) because the technique was unable to detect capsular or vascular invasion, although the specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) were 100%. However, when we considered histologic findings of malignancy and follicular proliferation positive because both require surgical resection, the sensitivity increased to 97.5% and the PPV decreased to 83.3%. There were 79 nodules with ultrasound follow-up for at least one year; 76 (96.2%) had negative core-needle biopsy findings, and 74 (97.3%) of these remained stable. The negative predictive value (NPV) for malignancy of the benign nodules was 98.6%, although no malignant transformation was observed. Nevertheless, the results of the statistical analysis do not allow us to recommend forgoing ultrasound follow-up in patients with benign core-biopsy findings. The cost savings of avoiding lobectomy in patients with benign nodules and stability of the nodule on ultrasound follow-up for at least one year was about 90%. CONCLUSIONS: Core-needle biopsy of thyroid nodules is effective because it diagnoses more than 90% of nodules with inconclusive findings after fine-needle aspiration biopsy. It is safe if done by experienced professionals. It is reliable because it yields 100% specificity and 100% PPV for malignant nodule, 97.5% sensitivity for the detection of nodules that require surgery, and 98.6% NPV for benign nodules. It is efficient because it reduces the costs of diagnosis compared to lobectomy in benign nodules.

RESUMO

Objetivos: Conocer el rendimiento diagnóstico de la biopsia con aguja gruesa (BAG) ecoguiada en nódulos tiroideos con dos punciones aspirativas con aguja fina (PAAF) previas no diagnósticas. Evaluar complicaciones de la BAG. Analizar la fiabilidad de los diagnósticos obtenidos mediante BAG. Medir el impacto económico de evitar lobectomía tras BAG con resultado benigno. Material y métodos: Revisión retrospectiva de 195 BAG realizadas en 178 pacientes. Las referencias utilizadas para medir la fiabilidad de los resultados de la BAG fueron el análisis de la pieza quirúrgica tras una biopsia con malignidad o proliferación folicular (PF) y la estabilidad ecográfica superior a 1 año tras una BAG benigna. Se compararon costes directos de BAG más seguimiento ecográfico frente al que hubiera tenido realizar lobectomía sin complicaciones en los pacientes con estabilidad ecográfica superior a 1 año tras BAG benigna. Resultados: De los 195 nódulos sometidos a BAG, el resultado fue diagnóstico en 179 (91,7%), incluyendo 122 benignos (62,5%), 50 PF (25,6%) y 7 malignos (3,6%). No fue diagnóstico en 16 nódulos (8,3%). Hubo complicaciones menores en 4 pacientes (2%) y mayores en ninguno. La sensibilidad de la BAG para el diagnóstico de cáncer de tiroides fue baja (42,8%) por su incapacidad para detectar invasión capsular o vascular, aunque con especificidad y valor predictivo positivo (VPP) del 100%. Al considerar los diagnósticos de malignidad y PF como positivos, pues ambos obligan a resección quirúrgica, la sensibilidad ascendió al 97,5%, con descenso al 83,3% del VPP. Hubo 79 nódulos con seguimiento ecográfico superior a 1 año, 76 con BAG benigna (96,2%), de los cuales mostraron estabilidad 74 (97,3%). El valor predictivo negativo (VPN) para malignidad de los nódulos benignos fue del 98,6%, aunque no se detectó ninguna transformación maligna. Sin embargo, el análisis estadístico no permite recomendar la supresión del seguimiento ecográfico tras BAG benigna.(AU)

RESUMO

Introducción. El cáncer de pulmón es la primera causa de mortalidad por cáncer a nivel mundial, lo que hace que sea considerado un problema de salud pública. Existen diferentes hallazgos imagenológicos que hacen sospechar la presencia de cáncer de pulmón, uno de los cuales son los nódulos pulmonares; sin embargo, estos también pueden verse en entidades benignas.Métodos. Se incluyeron 66 pacientes con biopsia de nódulo pulmonar en la Clínica Reina Sofía, en la ciudad de Bogotá, D.C., Colombia, entre el 1° de marzo del 2017 y el 28 de febrero del 2020. Se analizaron las características demográficas de los pacientes, las características morfológicas e histopatológicas de los nódulos pulmonares y la correlación entre sus características imagenológicas e histopatológicas. Resultados. El 69,2 % de los nódulos estudiados tenían etiología maligna, de estos el 55,5 % era de origen metástasico y el 44,5 % eran neoplasias primarias de pulmón, con patrón sólido en el 70,6 % de los casos. El patrón histológico más frecuente fue adenocarcinoma. Respecto a las características radiológicas, en su mayoría los nódulos malignos medían de 1 a 2 cm, de morfología lisa y distribución múltiple, localizados en lóbulos superiores. Conclusiones. La caracterización de los nódulos pulmonares brinda información relevante que orienta sobre los diagnósticos más frecuentes en nuestro medio, cuando se estudian nódulos sospechosos encontrados incidentalmente o en el seguimiento de otro tumor. Como el nódulo es la manifestación del cáncer temprano del pulmón, establecer programas de tamización que permitan el diagnóstico oportuno, es hoy día una imperiosa necesidad, para reducir la mortalidad.


Introduction. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide, which makes it a public health problem. There are different imaging findings that suggest the presence of lung cancer, one of which is pulmonary nodules; however, these can also be seen in benign entities. Methods. A total of 66 patients with pulmonary nodule biopsy at Clínica Reina Sofía, in the city of Bogotá D.C. were included between March 1, 2017 and February 28, 2020. The demographic characteristics of the patients, the morphologic and histopathologic characteristics of the pulmonary nodules and their correlation with their pathological diagnosis were analyzed.Results. 69.2% of the nodules studied had malignant etiology, of these 55.5% were of metastatic origin, and 44.5% were primary lung neoplasms, with a solid pattern in 70.6% of the cases. The most frequent histological pattern was adenocarcinoma. Regarding the radiological characteristics, most of the malignant nodules measure 1 to 2 cm, of smooth morphology and had multiple distribution, located in the upper lobes. Conclusions. The characterization of pulmonary nodules provides relevant information that guides the most fre-quent diagnoses in our setting, when suspicious nodules found incidentally or in the follow-up of another tumor are studied. As the nodule is the manifestation of early lung cancer, establishing screening programs that allow timely diagnosis is an urgent need to reduce mortality.

Para el análisis de la información se utilizó el sistema estadístico Statistical Package for Social Sciences, se confeccionó una base de datos en Excel, se aplicó análisis univariado de carácter descriptivo, se utilizaron estadígrafos descriptivos como la distribución de frecuencias absoluta y relativa. Se utilizó la prueba no paramétrica Chi cuadrado para datos cualitativos con un nivel de significación del 95 % (p<0,05). Resultados : en la serie predominó el sexo femenino y grupo etareo de 50-59 años de edad, los afectados de piel blanca, sobrepesos y obesos. El bocio, las microcalcificaciones y los bordes mal definidos fueron los factores de riesgo asociados a la malignidad con significación estadística. El carcinoma papilar tiroideo resultó el más común. Conclusiones : el diagnóstico del carcinoma tiroideo es complejo y su conducta tiene un enfoque multidisciplinario, existen elementos clínicos-epidemiológicos, imagenológicos e histológicos para diagnosticar el mismo.


ABSTRACT Background : differentiated thyroid carcinoma represents the most frequent malignant neoplasm in endocrinology; its clinical presentation and diagnosis have been modified thanks to the availability of tools such as thyroid ultrasound and fine needle aspiration biopsy. Objective : to characterize the thyroid cancer in a clinically ultrasound-graphical and histological way. Methods : a cross-sectional and descriptive study was carried out in patients treated in the Oncology and Endocrinology services of the Abel Santamaría Cuadrado Hospital in the Pinar del Río province in the period from January 2016 to December 2019. The universe of the study consisted of 119 patients and the sample of 91 selected through a simple random probability sampling. Data were obtained from medical records. For the information analysis, the Statistical Package for Social Sciences was used, an Excel database was created, a descriptive univariate analysis was applied, and descriptive statistics such as the absolute and relative frequency distribution were used. The non-parametric Chi square test was used for qualitative data with a significance level of 95% (p <0.05). Results : in the series predominated the female sex and etareo-group of 50 t 59 year of age, those with white skin, overweight and obese predominated in the series. The goiter, micro-calcifications, and poorly defined borders were the risk factors most associated with malignancy. Papillary thyroid carcinoma was the most common. Conclusions : the diagnosis of the thyroid carcinoma is complex and its conduct has a multidisciplinary approach, there are clinical-epidemiological, imaging and histological elements to diagnose thyroid cancer.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Muscle biopsy plays a major role in the final diagnosis of myopathies. Open muscle biopsy is the benchmark procedure, although minimally invasive percutaneous muscle biopsy (MIPMB) has demonstrated comparable diagnostic performance at a lower cost and can be carried out by interventional pathologists. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Muscle biopsies performed from 1997 to 2017 were reviewed and classified according to the type of procedure, whether carried out by an interventional pathologist or another specialist, the diagnosis and the effectiveness of the procedure. RESULTS: 738 muscle biopsies were performed; 32% were open biopsies and 68% MIPMB carried out by pathologist. The muscle most often biopsied was the femoral quadriceps and the most frequent diagnosis was inflammatory myopathies. In only 39 cases (20 open biopsies and 19 MIPMB) was there insufficient tissue for diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Muscle biopsy proved highly effective as a diagnostic tool as 90% yielded adequate tissue samples. The results obtained with MIPMB performed by interventionist pathologists were comparable to those of open muscle biopsy.

RESUMO

Resumen. E l g a n g l i o n e u r o m a c o n s t i t u y e u n t u m or neuroectodérmico primitivo benigno, que deriva delos ganglios del sistema simpático y está compuesto por células de Schwann maduras, células ganglionares y fibras nerviosas. Se presenta el caso de un raro tumor de cuello en una paciente de sexo femenino en edad pediátrica, con antecedentes de masa tumoral cervical desde hacía dos años. En los estudios por imagen realizados se diagnosticó una lesión sólida heterogénea con calcificaciones puntiformes, que comprimía estructuras óseas y vasculares adyacentes. Para obtener histología se realizó biopsia con aguja gruesa ecodirigida,informándose por anatomía patológica el diagnóstico de ganglioneuroma cervical. Debido a la baja incidencia del ganglioneuroma como variedad tumoral, y a su vez, la rara localización cervical enun escaso porciento de los pacientes, la presenteinvestigación se propone enriquecer la literatura científica nacional e internacional, aportando un nuevo caso que sirva de base para futuras investigaciones, respetando los principios éticos dela investigación en salud.[AU]

RESUMO

Introducción: La citología de nódulos tiroideos es una técnica que, evita procedimientos quirúrgicos innecesarios por lo que se lo ha determinado como primera línea dentro del algoritmo de diagnóstico, el objetivo del estudio fue determinar la sensibilidad y la especificidad de la citología y biopsia por congelación frente al estudio histopatológico en el diagnóstico de nódulos tiroideos en pacientes atendidos en Solca desde el año 2009 -2017. Métodos: Es un estudio de tipo observacional, retrospectivo y de correlación diagnóstica; los datos fueron obtenidos de las historias clínicas de pacientes intervenidos quirúrgicamente por nódulos tiroideos con biopsia por congelación, a quienes se les realizó previamente un estudio citológico en el Departamento de patología de SOLCA de la ciudad de Cuenca, Ecuador. El cálculo del tamaño de la muestra fue de 324 casos. Resultados:324 casos fueron incluidos. El 8.3% correspondió a hombres y el 91.7% a mujeres. La media de la edad fue 51.8 años; la gran mayoría provenían de la provincia Azuay con el 64.8%. En los estudios citológicos el 34.6% (112 casos)corresponden a lesiones inflamatorias benignas; el 11.1% [36 casos]a patologías malignas y 14.2% (46 casos)fueron insatisfactorios. En la biopsia por congelación el mayor porcentaje estuvo concentrado en enfermedades benignas con un 62.6% y 35.5% a lesiones malignas. Hubo 6 casos con el 1.9% en donde fue diferido el criterio diagnóstico. En el histopatológico definitivo el 60.2% (195 casos)fueron patologías benignas y el 39.8% (129 casos)fueron lesiones malignas. La sensibilidad de la PAAF frente a histopatológico es alta con un 91.79%, pero la especificidad es baja con un 51.94%. La sensibilidad y la especificidad de la biopsia por congelación frente a histopatológico es alta con un 98.97% y 90.70% respectivamente lo que le confiere una metodología óptima. Conclusiones: La PAAF de tiroides demuestra ser una metodología útil en el diagnóstico de nódulos, siempre y cuando sea realizada y observada por personal capacitado. La biopsia por congelación constituye una técnica con alta sensibilidad y especificidad que nos permite discriminar lesiones benignas de las malignas.

Introduction:Cytology of thyroid nodules is a technique that avoids unnecessary surgical procedures and has therefore been determined as the first line within the diagnostic algorithm.General Objective:To determine the sensitivity and specificity of cytology and freezing biopsy versus histopathological study in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules in patients treated in Solca since 2009 -2017. Methods:This is an observational, retrospective and diagnostic correlation study; the data were obtained from the clinical histories of patients surgically treated by thyroid nodules with freeze biopsy, who underwent a cytological study in the Department of pathology of the city of Cuenca, Ecuador. The calculation of the sample size was 324 cases. Results:8.3% corresponded to men and 91.7% to women. The mean age was 51.8 years; The vast majority came from the province of Azuay with 64.8%. In cytological studies, 34.6% [112 cases]correspond to benign inflammatory lesions; 11.1% [36 cases]to malignant pathologies and 14.2% [46 cases]were unsatisfactory. In the freeze biopsy the greater percentage was concentrated in benign diseases with 62.6% and 35.5% to malignant lesions. There were 6 cases with 1.9% where the diagnostic criterion was deferred. In the definitive histopathological, 60.2% [195 cases]were benign pathologies and 39.8% [129 cases]were malignant lesions. The sensitivity of FNAB to histopathological is high with 91.79%, but the specificity is low with 51.94%. The sensitivity and specificity of freezing versus histopathological biopsy is high with 98.97% and 90.70% respectively, which gives it an optimal methodology. Conclusions: Thyroid PAAF proves to be a useful methodology in the diagnosis of nodules, as long as it is performed and observed by trained personnel. Freezing biopsy is a technique with high sensitivity and specificity that allows us to discriminate benign from malignant lesions.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To determine the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided core-needle biopsy in thyroid nodules after two inconclusive fine-needle aspiration biopsies. To assess the complications of core-needle biopsy. To analyze the reliability of diagnoses obtained with core-needle biopsy. To measure the economic impact of avoiding lobectomies in patients with benign core-needle biopsy findings. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study reviewed 195 core-needle biopsies in 178 patients. To determine the reliability of the core-needle biopsy findings, we compared the diagnosis from the core-needle specimen versus the histologic findings in the surgical specimens when core-needle biopsy findings indicated malignancy or follicular proliferation and versus the stability of the nodule on ultrasound follow-up for one year when core-biopsy findings indicated benignity. RESULTS: Core-needle biopsy yielded a diagnosis for 179 (91.7%) nodules, of which 122 (62.5%) were classified as benign, 50 (25.6%) as follicular proliferation, and 7 (3.6%) as malignant. The findings were inconclusive for 16 (8.3%) nodules. Minor complications were observed in 4 (2%) patients; no major complications were observed. The sensitivity of core-needle biopsy for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer was low (42.8%) because the technique was unable to detect capsular or vascular invasion, although the specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) were 100%. However, when we considered histologic findings of malignancy and follicular proliferation positive because both require surgical resection, the sensitivity increased to 97.5% and the PPV decreased to 83.3%. There were 79 nodules with ultrasound follow-up for at least one year; 76 (96.2%) had negative core-needle biopsy findings, and 74 (97.3%) of these remained stable. The negative predictive value (NPV) for malignancy of the benign nodules was 98.6%, although no malignant transformation was observed. Nevertheless, the results of the statistical analysis do not allow us to recommend forgoing ultrasound follow-up in patients with benign core-biopsy findings. The cost savings of avoiding lobectomy in patients with benign nodules and stability of the nodule on ultrasound follow-up for at least one year was about 90%. CONCLUSIONS: Core-needle biopsy of thyroid nodules is effective because it diagnoses more than 90% of nodules with inconclusive findings after fine-needle aspiration biopsy. It is safe if done by experienced professionals. It is reliable because it yields 100% specificity and 100% PPV for malignant nodule, 97.5% sensitivity for the detection of nodules that require surgery, and 98.6% NPV for benign nodules. It is efficient because it reduces the costs of diagnosis compared to lobectomy in benign nodules.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) is safe and effective for the diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Although rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) can improve tissue collection and increase diagnostic yield, its utility has been recently questioned. OBJECTIVE: Determine the diagnostic efficacy of EUS-FNB with ROSE of pancreatic masses in a new echoendoscopy unit. METHOD: Cross-sectional and comparative study of patients who underwent EUS-FNB of pancreatic masses between January and July 2017. Patient demographics, ultrasonographic details and pathology reports were examined. RESULTS: A total of 23 procedures were analyzed. Median age was 59 years (range: 46-77). The group with ROSE had 13 patients (56.5%) and the group without ROSE 10 (43.5%). The final pathology report showed enough and adequate sample in 100% of the group with ROSE (13/13 vs. 5/10; p = 0.007). Diagnosis of malignancy was established in 84.6% of the biopsies (11/13 vs. 2/10; p = 0.003) in the group with ROSE. CONCLUSIONS: ROSE is useful to improve the diagnostic efficacy of EUS-FNB of pancreatic masses, especially in new EUS centers or in centers with a low diagnostic yield.


ANTECEDENTES: La biopsia con aguja fina guiada por ultrasonido endoscópico (BAF-USE) es segura y eficaz para el diagnóstico del adenocarcinoma pancreático. La revisión citológica rápida en sala (ROSE, rapid on-site evaluation) puede mejorar la calidad de la muestra y el rendimiento diagnóstico; en años recientes se ha cuestionado su utilidad. OBJETIVO: Determinar la eficacia diagnóstica de la ROSE durante las BAF-USE de lesiones pancreáticas sólidas en un nuevo centro de ecoendoscopia. MÉTODO: Estudio transversal y comparativo en el que se incluyeron todos los pacientes a quienes se realizó BAF-USE de lesiones pancreáticas sólidas entre enero y julio de 2017. Se evaluaron datos demográficos, ecográficos y de patología de las BAF-USE. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 23 procedimientos. La mediana de edad fue de 59 años (rango: 46-77). En el grupo con ROSE hubo 13 pacientes (56.5%) y en el grupo sin ROSE hubo 10 (43.5%). En el grupo con ROSE, el reporte de patología mostró muestra adecuada en el 100% (13/13 vs. 5/10; p = 0.007), así como diagnóstico de malignidad en el 84.6% (11/13 vs. 2/10; p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONES: La ROSE es una herramienta útil para mejorar el diagnóstico de BAF-USE de lesiones pancreáticas sólidas, principalmente cuando hay bajo rendimiento diagnóstico y en nuevas unidades de ecoendoscopia.
