RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there was a difference between the midline skin and the healthy skin in the lateral by means of total amount of collagen and Type I/III ratio which was the indicator of the collagen structure. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifty patients with pilonidal sinus disease were enrolled. Samples were prepared from the midline skin of the sinus where the holes were located and lateral skin of the resected material. RESULTS: It was determined that the lateral line had significantly more collagen intensity and a higher collagen Type I/III ratio (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: One of the reasons why hair mostly pricks into the midline in the intergluteal sulcus in pilonidal sinus disease is the fact that the amount of total collagen and collagen Type I/III ratio of the midline are lower than those of the lateral tissue. Complications are more common in cases with low Type I/III ratio and low total collagen rates.
OBJETIVO: El propósito de este estudio es investigar si existía diferencia entre la piel de la línea media y la piel sana en el lateral por medio de la cantidad total de colágeno y la relación Tipo I/III que era el indicador de la estructura del colágeno. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se inscribieron 50 pacientes con enfermedad del seno pilonidal. Se prepararon muestras de la piel de la línea media del seno donde se ubicaron los orificios y de la piel lateral del material resecado. RESULTADOS: Se determinó que la línea lateral tenía significativamente más intensidad de colágeno y una mayor relación de colágeno Tipo I/III (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONES: Una de las razones por las que el cabello se pincha principalmente en la línea media en el surco interglúteo en la enfermedad del seno pilonidal es el hecho de que la cantidad de colágeno total y la relación de colágeno tipo I/III de la línea media son menores que las del tejido lateral. Las complicaciones son más comunes en los casos con una proporción baja de Tipo I/III y tasas bajas de colágeno total.

INTRODUCTION: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard for the treatment of gallstone disease; however, adverse hemodynamic changes induced by increased intraabdominal pressure due to pneumoperitoneum are known to occur. Herein, we investigated the effects of pneumoperitoneum on oxidative stress markers, including paraoxonase, arylesterase, total oxidant status, and total antioxidant status, during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients that underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy were classified as Group I, whereas patients that underwent surgical procedures for an abdominal wall hernia under general anesthesia were classified as Group II. Blood samples were obtained during the preoperative period, the perioperative period, and 24 hours after surgery (postoperative day 1). Leukocyte counts, neutrophil rates, paraoxonase activities, arylesterase activities, and total oxidant and antioxidant status levels were measured. RESULTS: The differences in leukocyte counts and neutrophil rates were not significant between the two groups. In Group I, no significant differences in the total oxidant and antioxidant status levels were identified; however, paraoxonase and arylesterase levels were lower on postoperative day 1. No significant changes were observed in the total oxidant status, total antioxidant status, and paraoxonase or arylesterase activities in Group II. The perioperative total antioxidant status and arylesterase level were higher in Group I in comparison to Group II. CONCLUSION: Paraoxonase and arylesterase levels are useful markers in the evaluation of oxidative stress caused by intraabdominal pressure due to pneumoperitoneum.
