RESUMO

A calcinose escrotal idiopática é uma entidade rara, benigna. Não costuma ter outros sintomas associados. O caso reportado se trata de um paciente de 30 anos com diversos nódulos calcificados em bolsa escrotal, com 15 anos de evolução. Como medida terapêutica, foi realizada excisão cirúrgica completa dos nódulos, apresentando boa evolução cirúrgica e resultados estético e funcional satisfatórios.


Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is a rare benign entity. Patients affected by scrotal calcinosis usually do not have other associated symptoms. We report the case of a 30-yearold man with several calcified nodules in the scrotal sac with onset at age 15 years. A complete surgical excision of the nodules was performed, and the patient recovered well with satisfactory aesthetic and functional results.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: We sought to investigate the role of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and HBO2 plus NAC (HN) on the immunohistochemical expression of caspase-3 and the vascular endothelial growing factor (VEGF) on random skin flaps of rats (modified McFarlane design). METHODS: Thirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: GS (sham--n = 8); GNAC (N-acetylcysteine--n = 8); GHBO2 (hyperbaric oxygen--n = 8); and GHN (HBO2 plus NAC--n = 8). A rectangular skin flap (2 x 8 cm2) was dissected from the muscular dorsal layer, preserving a cranial pedicle. Polyethylene film was placed over the muscular layer, and an interrupted 3.0 nylon suture fixed the flap into the original place. On the eighth day, full-thickness biopsies (2 x 1 cm2) were collected from the proximal, middle and cranial areas of the skin flap, and in a site away from the flap labeled the control area. RESULTS: The expression of VEGF in the skin layers (epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous muscles) and vessels showed no significant difference among the groups. Apoptotic cells were significantly increased in the middle area of the flap in all groups. The major increase occurred in GS and GNAC. HBO2 significantly decreased cleaved caspase-3-positive cell numbers in the skin layers and vessels of the three areas. CONCLUSIONS: HBO2 showed a protective effect in the ischemic skin flap that was associated with reduced expression of apoptosis. GNAC and GHN were not associated with lower expression of apoptosis, and poor results were observed in GNAC. The combination of NAC and HBO2 did not show better results than using them separately. The expression of VEGF in skin layers and vessels did not show a significant difference in our modified McFarlane flap model. The results suggest that the diffusion of oxygen through the interstitial space was the determining factor for the more favorable results of HBO2 in the decrease of apoptosis expression.
