RESUMEN

Lymphogranuloma venereum (LV) is a sexually transmitted disease that may have atypical clinical manifestations mimicking tumors or inflammatory conditions, which renders its diagnosis difficult. LV requires both a clinical and endoscopic diagnosis before early treatment may be administered, and should be included as a differential diagnosis for individuals with risk factors.

RESUMEN

El hematoma espontáneo de pared abdominal es una patología infrecuente según la literatura. Sin embargo, en los últimos años esta tendencia ha cambiado debido al aumento del número creciente de indicaciones para anticoagulación, así como a la aparición de nuevos tratamientos anticoagulantes y al incremento en el número de pacientes que las precisan. Presentamos un paciente varón, de 80 años portador de marcapasos por fibrilación auricular bloqueada y prótesis mitral mecánica anticoagulado con acenocumarol, que presenta un cuadro de dolor abdominal agudo secundario hematoma espontáneo de la pared abdominal. Se trató de forma conservadora, mediante reversión de la anticoagulación y administración de analgesia con evolución favorable. Con este caso clínico ilustramos un tipo de patología que debemos tener presente, como parte del diagnóstico diferencial del dolor abdominal agudo en el paciente anticoagulado. La mayoría de los pacientes respondieron positivamente con tratamiento conservador(AU)

The abdominal wall spontaneous hematoma is an uncommon condition, according to the literature. In recent years, however, this tendency is changing due to the increased number of indications for anticoagulation, and the emerging of new anticoagulant treatment, and the increase in the number of patients who need it. Male patient, 80, carrier of a pacemaker for blocked atrial fibrillation and mechanical mitral prosthesis, anticoagulated with acenocoumarol, who presents acute abdominal pain secondary to spontaneous hematoma of the abdominal wall. He was treated conservatively, reversing anticoagulation and administering analgesia, with favorable evolution finally. This clinical case shows a type of pathology to keep in mind, as part of the differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain in the anticoagulated patient, who, in most cases, respond to conservative treatment(AU)

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The development of pancreatic metastases in renal carcinoma is very uncommon. The aim of the paper is to present a clinical case of this disease and review the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment. CLINICAL CASE: A case is presented of a 72-year-old female, with a history of renal carcinoma in the right kidney treated by total nephrectomy. At follow-up, in a radiological control, a suspicious metastatic pancreatic lesion was detected. A distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy was performed, and histopathology confirmed the origin as metastatic renal cancer. CONCLUSIONS: Pancreatic metastases from renal cancer are very rare, and are usually diagnosed in the monitoring the primary cancer (because most of them are asymptomatic). The treatment for isolated resectable pancreatic metastases without extra-pancreatic extension is surgical resection.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Benign multicystic mesothelioma is a rare benign tumour derived from the peritoneal mesothelium. The aim of this paper is to present a case of this rare tumour and review the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of this disease. CLINICAL CASE: The case is presented of a 22-year-old female diagnosed with multicystic mesothelioma after an urgent resection of intra-abdominal tumour in the context of acute abdominal pain. In the subsequent follow-up, the patient had a recurrence of the lesion, and at 2 years was treated by further resection. CONCLUSIONS: Benign multicystic mesothelioma is a benign tumour of unknown origin, and with a non-specific clinical manifestation. The most effective treatment is surgical, although there is a high tendency to local recurrence.
