RESUMEN

Introducción: La artroplastia total de cadera es una de las intervenciones quirúrgicas más frecuentes en el contexto hospitalario. Sin embargo, sigue desconociéndose el método ideal para manejar el dolor postoperatorio. Las técnicas de analgesia multimodal basadas en la anestesia regional se encuentran entre las soluciones más prometedoras. Objetivos: El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el dolor postoperatorio tras la artroplastia total de cadera, de acuerdo con si se realizaron, o no, bloqueos del nervio periférico (bloqueo femoral, bloqueo de la fascia iliaca y bloqueo del grupo de nervios pericapsulares). Se midió el consumo de morfina intravenosa durante la estancia del paciente en la unidad de cuidados posanestésicos, así como el número de rescates con opioides transcurridas 24 y 48 h de la intervención. Como objetivos secundarios, se establecieron la prevalencia de la lesión nerviosa, la prolongación del bloqueo cuadricipital y el consumo de morfina, de acuerdo con otras variables de interés. Materiales y métodos: En este estudio retrospectivo observacional, se recopilaron datos de la historia clínica digital de 656 pacientes de cirugía traumatológica de abril de 2018 a agosto de 2020, con los criterios de inclusión siguientes: mayores de 18 años, ASA I-III, artroplastia total de cadera primaria con anestesia general o anestesia subaracnoidea (solo con bupivacaína hiperbárica) y uso de levobupivacaína para el bloqueo del nervio periférico. Resultados: Se seleccionó un total de 362 pacientes. La indicación quirúrgica principal fue coxartrosis (61,3%), seguida de fractura de cadera (22,6%). Se realizaron bloqueos del nervio periférico en 169 pacientes (66,3% femoral, 27,7% PENG, y 6% de fascia ilíaca). El consumo medio postoperatorio de opioides en la UCPA fue inferior en los pacientes que recibieron bloqueo PENG (2,2 mg) o femoral (3,27 mg), en comparación con los que no recibieron ninguno de los dos (6,69 mg)...(AU)

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty is one of the most frequent surgical interventions in the hospital setting. Nonetheless, the ideal method to manage post-operative pain is still unknown. Multimodal analgesia techniques based on regional anaesthesia are amongst the most promising solutions. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate postoperative pain after total hip arthroplasty according to whether peripheral nerve block was performed (femoral block, fascia iliaca block and pericapsular nerve group block). Intravenous morphine consumption during the patient's stay in the post-anaesthesia care unit was measured, as well as the number of opioid rescues at 24 and 48h post intervention. As secondary objectives, the prevalence of nerve injury, prolonged quadricipital block, and morphine consumption were established according to other variables of interest. Materials and methods: In this observational retrospective study, data was collected from the electronic medical record of 656 traumatological surgery patients from April 2018 to August 2020, with the following inclusion criteria: over 18 years old, ASA I-III, primary total hip arthroplasty under general anaesthesia or subarachnoid anaesthesia (only with hyperbaric bupivacaine) and use of levobupivacaine for peripheral nerve block. Results: A total of 362 patients were selected. The main surgical indication was coxarthrosis (61.3%), followed by hip fracture (22.6%). Peripheral nerve blocks were performed on 169 patients (66.3% femoral, 27.7% PENG, and 6.0% fascia iliaca). Mean postoperative opioid consumption in PACU was lower in patients in who received a PENG (2.2 mg) or a femoral (3.27 mg) block, compared to those who received neither (6.69 mg). There were no differences in opioid rescues at 24 and 48h after the procedure...(AU)

There were no differences in opioid rescues at 24 and 48 h after the procedure. Nerve injury incidence was low (.8%), and not associated with nerve blocks. The incidence of prolonged quadricipital paralysis was also low (1.3%), and was mainly associated with femoral nerve block (75% of cases). CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective study supports the use of regional blocks as opioid-sparing techniques, highlighting their role in rapid functional recovery with no motor impairment.

RESUMEN

Introducción: En parálisis cerebral, la migración de la cabeza femoral se define como la pérdida de cobertura de esta por parte del acetábulo y se mide mediante el índice de Reimer. El tratamiento quirúrgico puede ser preventivo, reconstructivo o de salvamento, siendo los índices de fracaso de la cirugía elevados y relacionados con la severidad de la parálisis cerebral. El objetivo de nuestro trabajo es obtener la incidencia de la migración de caderas en nuestra serie de pacientes adultos con parálisis cerebral, determinar el resultado de las que han sido intervenidas quirúrgicamente y establecer la recurrencia que presentan las diversas técnicas quirúrgicas. Material y métodos: Se ha diseñado un estudio retrospectivo observacional para determinar el estado de las caderas de pacientes adultos con parálisis cerebral, que se han visitado en la Unidad entre los años 2008 y 2021. Resultados: La incidencia global de desplazamiento de la cadera fue de un 75%, aquellos pacientes con afectaciones más severas (GMFCS IV y V) tienen más predisposición a la luxación y además son más severas. Las cirugías sobre partes blandas constituyeron un 49,5% de las intervenciones realizadas con una tasa de fracaso de hasta el 82%. La cirugía reconstructiva se realizó en un 45,5% de las ocasiones, con un porcentaje de fracaso mayor al 86%. Conclusión: Actualmente, la implementación de programas de vigilancia de cadera pretende mejorar el seguimiento y las intervenciones aplicadas en el desplazamiento de la cadera, con el objetivo de mantener una cobertura acetabular óptima y, en todo caso, reducir la tasa de fracaso de las posibles cirugías.(AU)

Introduction: In cerebral palsy, femoral head migration is defined as the loss of coverage of the femoral head by the acetabulum and is measured using the Reimer index. Surgical treatment can be preventive, reconstructive, or salvage, and failure rates of surgery are high and related to the severity of cerebral palsy. The aim of our work is to assess the incidence of hip migration in our series of adult patients with cerebral palsy, to determine the outcome of those who have undergone surgery, and to establish recurrence rates after the various surgical techniques. Material and methods: We designed a retrospective observational study to determine the hip status of adult patients with cerebral palsy visiting the Unit between 2008 and 2021. Results: The overall incidence of hip displacement was 75%, patients with more extensive disability (GMFCS IV and V) were more predisposed to dislocation, also more severe. Soft tissue surgery made up 49.5% of the operations performed with a failure rate of up to 82%. Reconstructive surgery was performed in 45.5% of cases with a failure rate of more than 86%. Conclusion: The current hip surveillance programmes have been implemented to improve follow-up and interventions in hip displacement, with the objective of maintaining optimal acetabular coverage and reducing the failure rate of potential surgeries.(AU)

RESUMEN

La cirugía sobre la articulación coxofemoral es muy frecuente. Mejorar el manejo del dolor ha sido y es uno de los pilares fundamentales para optimizar la recuperación funcional de los pacientes. Para ello debemos diseñar un plan anestésico-analgésico multimodal que abarque todo el periodo perioperatorio.Los bloqueos nerviosos periféricos y los bloqueos fasciales son un componente importante de las estrategias analgésicas multimodales. Los bloqueos tradicionales tienen una eficacia moderada, afectación motora prolongada y aumento de riesgo de caídas. Como alternativa, recientemente se describieron los bloqueos capsulares (bloqueo del plano del ileopsoas o «ileopsoas plane block» [IPB] y bloqueo del grupo nervioso pericapsular o «PENG block»), que pretenden evitar la afectación motora manteniendo una óptima eficacia analgésica.El objetivo de esta revisión es la descripción de los nuevos bloqueos capsulares y analizar si permiten mejorar la analgesia postoperatoria y favorecer la recuperación funcional con menos complicaciones, con base en la inervación de la cadera. Para realizarlo se ha llevado a cabo una revisión bibliográfica en las bases de datos de PubMed, Embase y Cochrane Library desde enero 2018 hasta junio de 2020.(AU)

RESUMEN

En la enfermedad quirúrgica de cadera es esencial el manejo y el control efectivo del dolor peri y postoperatorio que minimice el uso de opioides y sus efectos adversos. Una de las dificultades de la analgesia regional eficaz para el control del dolor de cadera es la compleja inervación de la articulación que procede de múltiples nervios. Las técnicas regionales comúnmente realizadas se asocian en ocasiones a complicaciones, entre las que se han descrito la anestesia parcial, la hipotensión o la debilidad de los miembros inferiores. Presentamos el caso de una niña de 5 años con antecedentes de parálisis cerebral infantil que fue intervenida de osteotomía derrotativa y varizante de ambas caderas y tenotomía de los aductores por luxación paralitica a la que se le realizó un bloqueo PENG bilateral asociado al bloqueo del nervio femorocutáneo, por ser una técnica sencilla que no requiere de punciones múltiples para cubrir cada uno de los nervios implicados en la inervación sensitiva de la cápsula articular.(AU)

Effective management and control of peri- and postoperative pain in hip surgery is essential in order to minimize the use of opioids and their adverse effects. Effective regional analgesia for hip pain is made particularly challenging by the complex innervation of the hip joint. Standard regional techniques can be associated with complications, including incomplete anesthesia, hypotension, or lower limb weakness. We present the case of a 5-year-old girl with a history of infantile cerebral palsy who underwent bilateral varus derotation osteotomy and adductor tenotomy due to paralytic dislocation. She received bilateral PENG block and femoral cutaneous nerve block - a simple technique that covers all the nerves involved in the sensory innervation of the joint capsule without the need for multiple injections.(AU)

RESUMEN

Resumen: El control de dolor agudo en cirugía de cadera es un reto para el anestesiólogo, no sólo por la complejidad del dolor derivado de las osteotomías en una articulación mayor, sino por la multipatología y fragilidad que acompaña al paciente geriátrico. El bloqueo de los nervios pericapsulares, conocido como «bloqueo PENG¼ es un bloqueo guiado por ultrasonido puramente sensitivo que inhibe el impulso nociceptivo quirúrgico de tres nervios de la articulación coxofemoral: el nervio femoral, el nervio obturador y el nervio obturador accesorio. Este bloqueo tiene una duración promedio de 10 a 12 horas, prolongar esta eficacia y el margen de seguridad provistos por esta técnica fue el motivo para realizar la colocación de un catéter ecoguiado en el bloqueo PENG en un paciente masculino programado para artroplastía total de cadera con el objetivo de controlar el dolor hasta 48 horas después del procedimiento quirúrgico, optimizar recursos y disminuir su estancia intrahospitalaria y el riesgo de presentación de delirio y efectos adversos derivados del uso de opioides comúnmente asociados en pacientes de edad avanzada. El bloqueo PENG continuo forma parte del manejo multimodal aunado a anestesia general u otras técnicas de anestesia regional, con más horas de analgesia comparado con una dosis única.

Abstract: The control of acute pain in hip surgery is a challenge for the anesthesiologist, not only because of the complexity of the pain derived from osteotomies in a larger joint; but because of the multipathology and fragility that accompanies the geriatric patient. The pericapsular nerve block, known as «PENG block¼ is a purely sensitive ultrasound-guided block that inhibits the surgical nociceptive impulse of three nerves of the hip joint: the femoral nerve, the obturator nerve and the accessory obturator nerve. This block has an average duration of 10 to 12 hours, prolonging this efficiency and the safety margin provided by this technique led us to place an ultrasound-guided catheter in the PENG block for a male patient scheduled for total hip arthroplasty with the objective of controlling pain up to 48 hours after the surgical procedure, optimizing resources and reducing their hospital stay and reducing the risk of delirium and adverse effects derived from the use of opioids commonly associated in elderly patients. Continuous PENG block is part of multimodal management coupled with general anesthesia or other regional anesthesia techniques, with more hours of analgesia compared to a single dose.

RESUMEN

Resumen: La anestesia regional se realiza cada vez más en pacientes con fractura de cadera; ofrece mejor analgesia y menor consumo de opioides con disminución de sus efectos secundarios. Se ha estudiado la inervación sensitiva de la articulación de la cadera y el mecanismo de acción de diferentes bloqueos nerviosos; lo que nos ha llevado a proponer el abordaje del bloqueo de las ramas de los nervios pericapsulares; lo cual bloquea únicamente las ramas articulares sensitivas en forma unilateral. Técnica: Con el paciente en decúbito dorsal, se coloca el transductor convexo en plano transverso sobre la espina Iliaca anteroinferior, posteriormente se alinea con la eminencia iliopectínea de la rama púbica, rotándolo 45º hacia medial. Se inserta una aguja en plano de 80 mm en dirección lateral a medial, se deposita el anestésico local en lo profundo del tendón del psoas. Discusión: La identificación de la sonoanatomía es fundamental en el bloqueo PENG, no es un bloqueo avanzado, pero el anestesiólogo podría tener un bloqueo no exitoso y perder todos los beneficios de esta técnica. Por lo cual, presentamos las imágenes en forma detallada del procedimiento.

Abstract. Regional anesthesia is increasingly being performed in patients with hip fracture, offering better analgesia and lower consumption of opioids reducing their side effects. Recently, the sensitive innervation of the hip joint and the mechanism of action of different nerve blocks have been studied. This has led us to develop a novel ultrasound-guided approach for blockade of articular branches of the hip nerves, pericapsular nerve group. Which blocks only the sensory articular branches unilaterally. Technique: with the patient in the dorsal position, the transverse convex transducer is placed on the anterior inferior iliac spine, then align with the Iliopectineal eminence of the pubic branch rotating it 45º counter clockwise. An 80 mm flat needle is inserted lateral to medial and the local anesthetic is deposited deep in the psoas tendon. Discussion: The identification of sonoanatomy is fundamental in the PENG block, it is not an advanced block, but the anesthesiologist could have an unsuccessful block and lose all the benefits of this technique. Therefore, we present the images in detail of the procedure.

RESUMEN

El sarcoma sinovial es una entidad morfológica, clínica y genéticamente distinta y puede tener cualquier otra ubicación. No existe una terapia estandarizada. Generalmente el tratamiento es quirúrgico, con resección radical de la lesión, aplicándose en algunos casos radioterapia adyuvante. Los sarcomas sinoviales han mostrado quimiosensibilidad a la ifosfamida con una respuesta aproximada del 24%. Se encuentran presentes más frecuentemente en las extremidades, siendo su diseminación metastásica a ganglios linfáticos regionales y/o pulmón, hígado, hueso y cerebro. Se trata de un caso clínico: paciente femenino de 40 años de edad, portadora de tumor en miembro inferior derecho, en el tercio medio del muslo, de 15x10 cm de diámetro, que compromete el vasto anterior, lateral y posterior del cuádriceps derecho, con irrupción de la aponeurosis y extensión al tejido celular subcutáneo. Por medio de la inmunohistoquímica se observó inmunomarcaje de las células neoplásicas con EMA, QAE1/AE3, vimentina, CD99, CD34 y Bcl2, como diagnóstico de sarcoma sinovial monofásico. Para el tratamiento se procedió a desarticulación de cadera, postoperatorio sin complicaciones y evolución satisfactoria. Se refiere al servicio de oncología médica para tratamiento coadyuvante. Se concluye que los procedimientos quirúrgicos en el tratamiento de tumores en extremidades se divide en resección amplia del tumor con preservación del miembro mediante endoprotesis, y la desarticulación, no existiendo evidencias clínicas que soporten la ventaja sobre cualquier otra opción terapéutica, sin embargo, el objetivo principal del procedimiento oncológico es controlar el tumor para disminuir la recurrencia y mejorar la supervivencia del paciente.

Synovial sarcoma is a clinically and genetically distinct morphological entity, and can be found in any location. There is no standard therapy. Treatment is usually surgical; with radical resection of the lesion, applying, in some cases, adjuvant radiotherapy. Synovial sarcomas have shown chemosensitivity to ifosfamide with an approximate 24% response. They are most often present in the extremities causing metastatic spread to regional lymph nodes and/or lung, liver, bone and brain. It is a clinical case: a female 40 year old patient with a tumor in right leg, on the middle third of the thigh, 15x10 cm in diameter, that involves the anterior, lateral and posterior vastus of the right quadriceps, with emergence of aponeurosis and extension to the subcutaneous tissue. Through immunohistochemical test, immuno-labeling in neoplastic cells with EMA, QAE1/AE3, vimentin, CD99, CD34 and Bcl2, as diagnosis of monophasic synovial sarcoma, was observed. For treatment, hip disarticulation was carried out, no postoperative complications and satisfactory outcome. The patient is referred to medical oncology service for adjuvant treatment. We conclude that surgical procedure in the treatment of tumors in extremities is divided into wide resection of the tumor with preservation of the member by endoprosthesis, and disarticulation amputees, with no clinical evidence to support the benefit of any other treatment option, however, the main purpose of the oncologic procedure is to control the tumor recurrence and improve patient survival.
