RESUMO
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to compare the functional exercise capacity and the lung function among patients undergoing early rehabilitation with those submitted to the conventional care after pectus excavatum repair using the Nuss procedure. METHOD: Patients were randomly allocated to the early rehabilitation group (ERG) who started rehabilitation after surgery and the group of the conventional care (CG) received routine care of the institution. They were evaluated before surgery (preoperative) and in hospital discharge day (postoperative). RESULTS: Forty patients were evaluated, twenty in each group. All patients presented a significant reduction in FVC, FEV1, and PEF in the postoperative period, there was no statistically significant difference between groups. There was significant different in postoperative functional exercise capacity between the ERG and CG (506.26 ± 66.54 vs 431.11 ± 75.61, p = 0.02) and the difference between distance walked in the preoperative and postoperative period was lower in the ERC than in the CG (76.57 ± 49.41 vs 166.82 ± 70.13, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Patients undergoing the early rehabilitation after the Nuss procedure presented a better postoperative functional exercise capacity in hospital discharge day compared with patients in the conventional group, with no difference in lung function between groups.

Tumores carcinóides broncopulmonares são proliferações celulares com baixo grau de malignidade. Porém, reltatos de metástases são cada vez mais comuns. Estudo de características clínicas e de biomarcadores teciduais tumorais nos casos referentes a 55 pacientes operados determinou fatores prognósticos para o desenvolvimento de metástases, e permitiu o estabelecimento de um Índice de Risco numérico relacionado com o fenômeno. Gênero masculino, idade acima de 40 anos, margem cirúrgica comprometida, hiperexpressão imunohistoquímica de p53, Ki67 e microvasos, hipodensidade de fibras estromais no tumor e o índice de risco estão correlacionados com maior incidência de metástases/Bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumors are low grade malignancy proliferations, although reports of metastatic behavior has been became more common. The study of clinical and tumoral histologic profiles in the group of 55 pacients underwent to surgical treatment stablished prognostic factors for the metastatic behavior, and a numeric risk index. Male gender, age above 40 years, residual tumor in surgical margin, imunohistochemical hiperexpression for p53, Ki67 and microvessels, hipodensity of estromal fibers in tumoral tissue, and risk index are correlated with increased incidence of metastasis...
