RESUMO
Introducción: La colisión de dos tumores de diferente estirpe celular en un mismo órgano es infrecuente; a pesar de las asociaciones descritas en la literatura, el hallazgo de GIST con adenomioma en sincronismo, llama aún más la atención debido a sus distintos orígenes celulares. Reporte de caso: Presentamos el caso de una paciente mujer de 57 años de edad, quien es sometida a cirugía de resección doble en cuña, y distintos exámenes incluido el anátomo-patológico. Conclusión: Se demuestra la presencia de tumores sincrónicos, GIST gástrico y adenomioma gástrico, a pesar de la infrecuencia de este hallazgo.
Background:The collision of two tumors of different cell lines in the same organ is infrequent; even though, the associations described in the literature, the finding of synchronous GISTwith adenomyoma draws even more attention due to its different cellular origins. We present the case of a 57-year-Case report:old female patient who underwent double wedge resection surgery and various examinations, including pathology. Conclusion:The presence of synchronous tumors, gastric GIST and gastric adenomyoma is demonstrated,despite the infrequency of this finding.
RESUMO
Resumen Los adenomiomas son tumoraciones benignas constituidas por un agregado nodular de músculo liso, glándulas endometriales y estroma endometrial. La presencia de adenomiomas fuera del útero es un hallazgo infrecuente. Presentamos dos casos de adenomiomas extrapélvicos localizados en el apéndice. El estudio histológico resultó esencial para el diagnóstico.
Abstract Adenomyomas are a benign tumor compound of smooth muscle nodular aggregate, endometrial glands and endometrial stroma. Adenomyomas presenting outside uterus are a rare finding. Here we report two extrapelvic adenomyomas of the appendix. Histological examination was essential for diagnosis.

Introducción. La adenomiomatosis es una entidad anatomo-clínica de difícil diagnóstico. Se puede clasificar en generalizada, segmentaria y localizada. Suele presentarse con síntomas de colelitiasis, aunque puede variar desde ser completamente asintomática hasta sugerir una lesión maligna. El objetivo de este estudio fue revisar la afectación adenomiomatosa de la vesícula biliar y los conductos biliares intrahepáticos y extrahepáticos, así como su diagnóstico y tratamiento. Materiales y métodos. Se llevó a cabo un estudio retrospectivo de 10 años de duración en los servicios de Cirugía Digestiva y Anatomía Patológica del Hospital Universitario San Cecilio en Granada, España. Se incluyeron todos los pacientes que presentaban afectación adenomiomatosa de la vesícula biliar y del sistema biliar intrahepático y extrahepático. Resultados, Entre los años 2000 y 2010, se identificaron 24 pacientes, 19 mujeres y 5 hombres, con adenomiomatosis de un total de 5.141 piezas quirúrgicas. Las manifestaciones clínicas fueron de colelitiasis en 20 (83,3 %) pacientes, de colecistitis en 2 (8,35 %) y de obstrucción (ictericia) en 2 (8,35 %), y correspondieron con los hallazgos histopatológicos: se encontraron 20 lesiones localizadas en el fondo de la vesícula, dos en el conducto cístico y dos en el colédoco distal. En la mayoría de los casos se practicó colecistectomía laparoscópica simple; los últimos dos se sometieron a duodenopancreatectomía cefálica u operación de Whipple, por sospecharse afectación maligna. Conclusión. Esta enfermedad puede presentarse con ausencia completa de síntomas, o con manifestaciones de colelitiasis, colecistitis o de síndrome colestásico. En los casos en que se sospeche una afectación maligna, lo adecuado es hacer un examen histopatológico intraoperatorio, antes de practicar cirugías complejas.
Introduction: Adenomyomatosis of the gallbladder and biliary ducts is an anatomic and medical entity of difficult diagnosis. It can be classified as generalized, segmentary or localized. Typical clinical presentation includes symptoms of cholelithiasis, but it can range from completely asymptomatic to suspicion of malignancy. The aim of this study was to review the gallbladder and intra and extrahepatic biliary ducts affectation by adenomyomatosis, its diagnosis and treatment. Patients and Method: Ten-year retrospective study, held at San Cecilio University Hospital's Digestive Surgery and Pathology Services in Granada, Spain. All patients with gallbladder and intra and extrahepatic biliary ducts adenomyomatosis were included. Results: 24 patients with adenomyomatosis were identified out of 5,141 surgical specimen in the ten-year period 2000-2010; 19 were female and five male. Twenty (83.3%) patients presented with symptoms of cholelithiasis, two (8.35%) with symptoms of cholecystitis, and two (8.35%) with obstructive signs (jaundice),all of which were consistent with the pathology findings: 20 lesions were located in the gallbladder fundus, two in the cystic duct, and two in the distal common bile duct. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in all but the last two cases, in which a cephalic pancreatico-duodenectomy, or Whipple procedure, was perfomed for suspected malignancy. Conclusion: This entity's clinical condition can present as totally asymptomatic, or with symptoms of cholelithiasis, cholecystitis, or cholestatic syndrome. When malignancy is suspected, intra-operative pathological confirmation is recommended before undertaking a complex surgical procedure.

A adenomiose frequentemente teve papel pouco valorizado na etiologia de várias doenças ginecológicas, provavelmente devido a grande dificuldade diagnóstica. Ao longo dos anos, seu diagnóstico ocorria por suspeição ou por achado em peças cirúrgicas de histerectomias. Exames de imagem começaram a ajudar no diagnóstico precoce desta patologia, como ultrassonografia transvaginal, histerossonografia, elastossonografia e, principalmente, ressonância magnética, através da determinação da espessura da zona juncional. Outros exames, como tomografia computadorizada, biópsia miometrial e dosagem de CA-125, não demonstram a mesma acurácia. O tratamento, que até recentemente se restringia à histerectomia, começa a apresentar novas opções como os agonistas e antagonistas do GnRH, os contraceptivos contínuos, danazol, dispositivos intrauterinos medicados, inibidores de aromatase, além de procedimentos mais conservadores como a embolização da artéria uterina, a adenomiomectomia e a ressecção parcial de adenomiose combinada à oclusão da artéria uterina por via laparoscópica.

AdenomioseRESUMO
Se exponen 3 casos con hallazgo incidental de páncreas heterotópico, en autopsia y 2 piezas quirúrgicas para hacer una breve revisión del tema. Casos: 1. Mujer de 53 años de edad fallecida por neumonía de focos múltiples. Durante el estudio post mortem se encontró, a nivel del segmento yeyunal, un nódulo constituido histológicamente por múltiples conductos con epitelio columnar y fibras anchas desorganizadas de músculo liso. 2. Preescolar varón de 2 años 11 meses de edad con diagnóstico de quiste de colédoco y resección del mismo. En uno de los cortes de pared se observó una banda de tejido que a la microscopía de luz correspondía a tejido pancreático sin alteraciones. 3. Escolar mujer de 6 años 10 meses de edad con diagnóstico de síndrome de Byler candidata a transplante hepático. Los cortes histológicos del explante en la región del hilio revelaron grupos multifocales de conductos y acinos pancreáticos sin presencia de islotes. Conclusión: La heterotopia pancreática es un hallazgo infrecuente que se puede observar a cualquier nivel del tracto gastrointestinal e inclusive fuera del mismo, por lo que la caracterización histopatológica de esta alteración permite distinguirla de otras lesiones. Pese a su conducta habitualmente benigna y asintomática, ocasionalmente puede dar origen a cuadros obstructivos, hemorrágicos, inflamatorios o neoplásicos.
We report three cases of pancreatic heterotopia incidentally found (one in autopsy and two in surgical pieces) with a brief review of the literature. Cases: 1. A fifty-three-year-old woman who died of bronchopneumonia. During post-mortem examination, a nodule (hystologically formed by multiple ducts lined by columnar epithelium and broad disarranged smooth muscle fibers) was found at the level of jejune. 2. 5-year, 11-month-old male with diagnosis ofcholedochal cyst. In the resected specimen, one of the mural slices showed a tissue stripe that under light-microscope examination corresponded to normal pancreatic tissue. 3. 6-year, 10-month-old female diagnosed with Byler syndrome who was recipient of liver transplant. Slices taken from the hilum in the resected specimen revealed multiple clusters of pancreatic acini and ducts without evidence of endocrine islets. Conclusion: Pancreatic heterotopia is an uncommon finding, which may be found at any level of the gastrointestinal tract, and even outside it. Histopathologic studies allow to distinguish this disorder from other lesions. Despite its commonly benign and asymptomatic behaviour, it may sometimes produce obstruction, hemorrhage, inflammation or neoplasms.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Gallbladder cancer, which is characterized by rapid progression and a poor prognosis, is a complex disease to treat. Unfortunately, little is known currently about its etiology or pathogenesis. A better understanding of its carcinogenesis and determining risk factors that lead to its development could help improve the available treatment options. METHOD: Based on this better understanding, the histological alterations (such as acute cholecystitis, adenomyomatosis, xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis, polyps, pyloric metaplasia, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia, cancer and others) in gallbladders from 1,689 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for cholecystolithiasis were analyzed. The association of these gallbladder histological alterations with clinical data was studied. RESULTS: Gender analysis revealed a greater incidence of inflammatory changes in males, while dysplasia and cancer were only found in women. The incidence of cholesterolosis was greater in the patients 60 years of age and under, and the incidence of adenomyomatosis and gangrene was greater in the elderly patients. A progressive increase in the average age was observed as alterations progressed through pyloric metaplasia, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia and then cancer, suggesting that the metaplasia-dysplasia-carcinoma sequence may occur in gallbladder cancer. Gallbladder histological alterations were also observed in asymptomatic patients. CONCLUSION: The results of this study suggest that there could be an association between some histological alterations of gallbladder and cancer, and they also suggest that the metaplasia-dysplasia-carcinoma sequence could in fact be true in the case of gallbladder cancer. Nevertheless, further studies directed towards a perfect understanding of gallbladder carcinogenesis are required.
