Título : Endovascular Treatment of Acute Lower Limb Ischemia Associated with Cocaine Use: A Scoping Review Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Vanessa García Gómez, Autor ; Muñoz Durán, Julián A., Autor ; Santiago Echeverri Isaza, Autor ; José Miguel Hidalgo Oviedo, Autor ; Emilio Sanín Pérez, Autor ; Sergio Álvarez Vallejo, Autor Fecha de publicación : 2024 Títulos uniformes : Cureus Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : acute; cocaine; crack; ischemia; lower limb. Resumen : The endovascular treatment of acute lower limb ischemia associated with cocaine use is an underexplored topic. This scoping review aims to map existing information and point out potential knowledge gaps for future research. We searched databases with a strategy of terms and keywords (Cocaine, Acute, Lower Limb, and Ischemia) for articles related to acute ischemia in the lower limbs and cocaine use. We established eligibility and exclusion criteria and searched without restrictions on language or date of publication. We obtained five case reports published between 2004 and 2015. Most of the patients were men with an average age of 38 years. Treatments were heterogeneous. Most patients showed improvement after surgical thrombectomy. The sample size and variety of interventions limit the generalizability of the results, so it is necessary to do more studies with robust methodologies to standardize treatments and improve the understanding of the condition.

Título : Gadoxetic Acid in MRI: A Five-Year Experience at a High-Complexity Hospital in Colombia Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Vanessa García Gómez, Autor ; Pimiento Figueroa, Jonathan, Autor ; Lopera Valle, Johan Sebastián, Autor ; Gómez Urrego, Ana M., Autor ; González, Mateo, Autor ; Huertas Duran, Claudia, Autor Fecha de publicación : 2024 Títulos uniformes : Cureus Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : adenoma; bile ducts; contrast media; focal nodular hyperplasia; liver cell; liver diseases; magnetic resonance imaging. Resumen : Objective The objective of the study was to evaluate the use of the hepatospecific contrast agent, gadoxetic acid, for MRI in patients at a high-complexity hospital in Medellin, Colombia, from 2016 to 2022. Materials and methods This was an observational, descriptive, and retrospective cross-sectional study involving patients who had undergone MRI with gadoxetic acid from February 2016 to January 2022. The MRI studies were interpreted by two radiologists specializing in body imaging, each with at least 10 years of experience. The medical records of the identified patients were reviewed. Quantitative variables were presented using either means and standard deviations or medians and interquartile ranges, depending on the distribution of the variables. Qualitative variables were represented through absolute and relative frequencies. Results A total of 100 pharmacy records were collected, leading to a final sample of 75 patients aged between three and 91 years. The primary reason for imaging was to assess focal liver lesions in 58 patients (77.3%), with bile duct injury being the second most common indication in 16 patients (21.3%). A diagnostic alteration was noted in 69.3% of cases (52 patients). Among the 58 focal liver lesions analyzed using a hepatospecific agent, 31 cases (53.4%) were diagnosed as focal nodular hyperplasia. Conclusion Our study reinforces the clinical value of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI in refining diagnostic assessments, particularly in cases involving bile duct and focal hepatic lesions.

Título : Cardio-oncology clinical assessment and screening in patients undergoing high toxicity chemotherapy: a retrospective cohort study Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Andrés Felipe Miranda Arboleda, ; Juan Guillermo Gamboa Arroyave, Fecha de publicación : 2022 Títulos uniformes : Cureus Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : cardio-oncology solid tumors hematological malignancies chemotherapy cardiotoxicity Resumen : Objective: To describe the clinical characteristics and cardio-oncological assessment in patients undertaking highly toxic chemotherapy and/or chest radiotherapy in a high-complexity hospital. Methods: A single-center retrospective cohort study was carried out between January 1st, 2017 and December 31st, 2019. The medical records of patients with solid or hematological neoplasms were reviewed. Descriptive information was obtained on demographic characteristics, chemotherapeutic agents, pre-chemotherapy cardiovascular (CV) evaluation, and CV outcomes. The risk of complications was assessed using the Mayo Clinic risk score. Results: A total of 499 patients were included, the most common neoplasm was non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (21.6%), followed by breast cancer (19.4%). A very high risk of cardiotoxicity was present in 44.1% and 90% were not evaluated by cardiology. Pre-chemotherapy echocardiography was obtained in 65%, but only 19.4% underwent echocardiographic control after finishing chemotherapy. The most frequent CV outcomes were chemotherapy-related systolic dysfunction (4.4%) and rhythm disturbances (2.8%), with atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter being the most frequent arrhythmias. Conclusion: Despite the recognized CV toxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs, the majority of patients receiving highly toxic regimens at high risk of CV complications are not previously evaluated by a cardiologist and the CV workup was not routinely used in our study. The implementation of cardio-oncology programs will facilitate the identification of high-risk patients, aiming to detect and treat complications early. Mención de responsabilidad : Carlos A.

Título : Ovarian epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in a pediatric patient: a case report Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : Jorge Alberto Ochoa Gaviria, Fecha de publicación : 2022 Títulos uniformes : Cureus Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : pediatric epithelioid hemangioendothelioma ovaries vascular tumors childhood ovarian neoplasm mri pelvis pelvic ultrasonography Resumen : We present a case of an eight-month-old girl who was brought to the emergency department with bloody stools. An initial ultrasound reported a mass in the left iliac fossa that was further characterized by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a hypervascular ovarian tumor. Prior to surgical resection of the tumor, abdominal arteriography with selective embolization and vessel occlusion was performed. Pathology reported epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the left ovary. This condition has not been previously reported in girls. In this case report, we describe the ultrasound, MRI, and arteriographic findings with a histopathologic correlation of an adnexal tumor that is unknown in the pediatric female population until now.

Título : Preoperative embolization of a giant solitary fibrous tumor of the pleura: a case report Tipo de documento : documento electrónico Autores : José Miguel Hidalgo Oviedo, Fecha de publicación : 2022 Títulos uniformes : Cureus Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave : case report thoracotomy therapeutic embolization pleural solitary fibrous tumor Resumen : Only 5% of pleural neoplasms are fibrous tumors of the pleura, which typically develop from sub-mesothelial mesenchymal tissue of the visceral pleura. These tumors often behave clinically benignly, and when they are larger than 15 cm or occupy more than 40% of the hemithorax, they are referred to as “giant” tumors. Surgical excision is the gold standard treatment, although intra-operative bleeding is one of the major complications. In this case report, we discuss a 39-year-old female patient with a large homogeneous enhancing mass of soft tissue density in the right lower hemithorax with systemic arterial supply from the right inferior phrenic artery. Angiography and embolization were valuable adjuncts in preoperative management. Via thoracotomy, the mass was successfully removed completely with minimal blood loss. Giant SFTP is a rare neoplasm of the pleura. Intraoperative bleeding is one of the main complications during surgical resection, which is the gold standard of its treatment. Angiography and embolization are valuable complements in the preoperative treatment of this type of tumors to reduce intraoperative blood loss and operative times.
