RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the early and late results of surgical treatment of patients with bronchiectasis, comparing the Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) vs. the open thoracotomy (OT). METHODS: Observational retrospective study of patients who underwent surgery for bronchiectasis. Patients were divided into two groups according to surgical access OT/VATS. Variables collected included gender, age, preoperative symptoms, etiology, segments involved, FVC and FEV1, type of surgical resection, complications, mortality, and length of hospital stay. Late surgical results were classified as excellent, complete remission of symptoms; good, significative improvement; and poor, little/no improvement. RESULTS: 108 surgical resections (103 patients). OT group 54 patients (52.4%) vs. VATS 49 (47.6%). A high percentage of complications was observed, but no difference between the OT (29.6%) and VATS (24.5%) groups was found. Post-operative hospital stay was shorter in the VATS group (5.4 days) vs. the OT group (8.7 days (p=0.029). 75% of the patients had a late follow-up; the results were considered excellent in 71.4%, good in 26%, and poor in 2.6%. Regarding bronchiectasis distribution, an excellent percentage was obtained at 82.1% in patients with localized bronchiectasis and 47.5% with non-localized bronchiectasis, p=0.003. CONCLUSIONS: VATS leads to similar results regarding morbidity, compared to OT. However, VATS was related to shorter hospital stays, reflecting the early recovery. Late results were excellent in most patients, being better in patients with localized bronchiectasis. VATS should be considered a preferable approach for bronchiectasis lung resection whenever possible.

RESUMO Objetivos: Avaliar os resultados precoces e tardios do tratamento cirúrgico de pacientes com bronquiectasias, comparando a Cirurgia Torácica Videoassistida (VATS) versus a toracotomia (TO). Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo observacional de pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de bronquiectasias. Os pacientes foram divididos em dois grupos de acordo com o acesso cirúrgico TO/VATS. As variáveis coletadas incluíram sexo, idade, sintomas pré-operatórios, etiologia, segmentos envolvidos, CVF e VEF1, tipo de ressecção cirúrgica, complicações, mortalidade e tempo de internação. Os resultados cirúrgicos tardios foram classificados como excelentes, remissão completa dos sintomas; bom, melhora significativa; e pobre, pouca/nenhuma melhoria. Resultados: 108 ressecções cirúrgicas (103 pacientes). Grupo TO 54 pacientes (52,4%) vs. VATS 49 (47,6%). Observou-se alto percentual de complicações, mas não foi encontrada diferença entre os grupos TO (29,6%) e VATS (24,5%). O tempo de internação pós-operatório foi menor no grupo VATS (5,4 dias) versus o grupo TO (8,7 dias) (p=0,029). 75% dos pacientes tiveram seguimento tardio; os resultados foram considerados excelentes em 71,4%, bom em 26% e ruim em 2,6%. Quanto à distribuição das bronquiectasias, o percentual excelente foi de 82,1% em pacientes com bronquiectasias localizadas e 47,5% com bronquiectasias não localizadas, p=0,003. Conclusões: VATS mostrou resultados semelhantes em relação à morbidade, comparado ao TO. No entanto, a VATS foi relacionada a internações hospitalares mais curtas, refletindo a recuperação precoce. Os resultados tardios foram excelentes na maioria dos pacientes, sendo melhores em pacientes com bronquiectasias localizadas. A VATS deve ser considerada uma abordagem preferível para a ressecção pulmonar de bronquiectasias sempre que possível.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review aims at describing the prevalence of urinary and sexual symptoms among women who underwent a hysterectomy for cervical cancer. METHODS: A systematic search in six electronic databases was performed, in September 2019, by two researchers. The text search was limited to the investigation of prevalence or occurrence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and sexual dysfunctions in women who underwent a hysterectomy for cervical cancer. For search strategies, specific combinations of terms were used. RESULTS: A total of 8 studies, published between 2010 and 2018, were included in the sample. The average age of the participants ranged from 40 to 56 years, and the dysfunctions predominantly investigated in the articles were urinary symptoms (n = 8). The rates of urinary incontinence due to radical abdominal hysterectomy ranged from 7 to 31%. The same dysfunction related to laparoscopic radical hysterectomy varied from 25 to 35% and to laparoscopic nerve sparing radical hysterectomy varied from 25 to 47%. Nocturia ranged from 13%, before treatment, to 30%, after radical hysterectomy. The prevalence rates of dyspareunia related to laparoscopic radical hysterectomy and laparoscopic nerve sparing radical hysterectomy ranged from 5 to 16% and 7 to 19% respectively. The difficulty in having orgasm was related to laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (10 to 14%) and laparoscopic nerve sparing radical hysterectomy (9 to 19%). CONCLUSION: Urinary and sexual dysfunctions after radical hysterectomy to treat cervical cancer are frequent events. The main reported disorders were urinary incontinence and dyspareunia.

OBJETIVO: Essa revisão sistemática visa descrever a prevalência de sintomas urinários e sexuais entre mulheres submetidas à histerectomia por câncer cervical. MéTODOS: Uma pesquisa sistemática foi realizada em seis bases de dados eletrônicas, em setembro de 2019, por dois pesquisadores. A busca foi limitada à investigação da prevalência e ocorrência de sintomas do trato urinário baixo e disfunções sexuais em mulheres após histerectomia por câncer cervical. Como estratégia de busca foi utilizada uma combinação específica de termos apenas em inglês. RESULTADOS: Um total de 8 estudos, publicados entre 2010 e 2018, foram incluídos na amostra. A idade média dos participantes foi de 40 a 56 anos, e as principais disfunções investigadas pelos artigos foram sintomas urinários (n = 8). Na literatura analisada, as taxas de incontinência urinária ligadas à histerectomia abdominal radical variaram de 7 a 31%. A mesma disfunção, para histerectomia radical laparoscópica, variou de 25 a 35%, e de 25 a 47% para histerectomia radical laparoscópica poupadora de nervo. A taxa de noctúria variou de 13%, antes do tratamento, a 30%, após histerectomia radical. A prevalência de dispareunia associada à histerectomia radical laparoscópica foi de 5 a 16%. Já a taxa de dispareunia relatada pós-histerectomia radical laparoscópica poupadora situou-se entre 7 e 19%. A dificuldade de alcançar o orgasmo foi relatada após histerectomia radical laparoscópica, variando de 10 a 14%, e também na histerectomia radical laparoscópica poupadora de nervo, variando de 9 a 19%. CONCLUSãO: Disfunções urinárias e sexuais após histerectomia para tratamento do câncer cervical são eventos frequentes. As principais desordens relatadas foram incontinência urinária e dispareunia.
