RESUMO

Reportar un caso de evisceración vaginal espontánea en paciente con antecedentes quirúrgicos de histerectomía vaginal y hacer una revisión de la literatura sobre los principales factores de riesgo asociados a la presentación de este evento. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 74 años multípara de 12 partos vaginales con antecedente ginecológico de histerectomía vaginal en 2012, en el año 2014 una sacroespinocolpopexia con colocación de cinta transobturadora más colporrafia anterior, en 2018 presenta cuadro con asas intestinales protruyendo con signos de isquemia a través de defecto en cúpula vaginal, se realiza resección de intestino delgado y anastomosis termino-terminal, con posterior cierre de defecto por vía abdominal. Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar y Science Direct para artículos publicados en inglés y español, de los últimos 22 años. Se identificaron 16 títulos que cumplieron con los criterios de selección, los resultados de la revisión muestran factores de riesgo comunes. La evisceración vaginal por dehiscencia de la cúpula vaginal es una patología poco prevalente, el abordaje mínimamente invasivo, que ha aumentado en los últimos años, ha conllevado un aumento de la incidencia, siendo la histerectomía por laparoscopia el de mayor riesgo.

To report a case of spontaneous vaginal evisceration in a patient with a surgical history of vaginal hysterectomy, and to review the literature on the main risk factors associated with the presentation of this event. We present the case of a 74-year-old multiparous patient with 12 vaginal deliveries with a gynecological history of vaginal hysterectomy in 2012, in 2014 a sacrospinocolpopexy with placement of transobturator tape plus anterior colporrhaphy, in 2018 she presented with intestinal loops protruding with signs of ischemia through a defect in the vaginal vault, resection of the small intestine and end-to-end anastomosis were performed, with subsequent closure of the defect through the abdomen. A search was made in the PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar and Science Direct databases for articles published in English and Spanish, from the last 22 years. 16 titles that met the selection criteria were identified; the results of the review show common risk factors. Vaginal evisceration due to dehiscence of the vaginal vault is a rare pathology, the minimally invasive approach, which has increased in recent years, has led to an increase in incidence, with laparoscopic hysterectomy being of greater risk.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objetives: To report a case of transvaginal bowel evisceration following total abdominal hysterectomy, and to conduct a review of the literature on its diagnosis and treatment. Materials and methods: A 48-year-old female patient who presented to a high complexity institution with transvaginal bowel evisceration lasting 10 hours. Laparotomy was performed in order to reduce the evisceration and repair the vaginal vault defect. A search was conducted in Medline via PubMed, Embase, Elsevier, Medigraphic, Wolters Kluwer Health and UpToDate using the terms "vaginal vault dehiscence," "transvaginal bowel evisceration," "dehiscence following hysterectomy," "hysterectomy complications," and using a snowball search strategy based on the studies identified, both in English and Spanish. Results: Fourteen studies were included. The diagnosis of transvaginal evisceration is primarily clinical with the observed bulging of the abdominal content through the vagina. It may also be associated with signs of peritonitis or bowel obstruction. Initial management must be an attempt at vaginal packing and prophylactic antibiotics. Several surgical techniques have been described for vaginal vault correction and reinforcement of dehiscence closure. Conclusions: Transvaginal evisceration is considered a surgical emergency. Further studies assessing the safety and effectiveness of the various management interventions are required.

RESUMEN Objetivos: reportar un caso de evisceración intestinal transvaginal posterior a histerectomía abdominal total y realizar una revisión de la literatura sobre su diagnóstico y tratamiento. Materiales y métodos: se presenta el caso de una paciente de 48 años que consulta a una institución de alta complejidad por evisceración intestinal transvaginal de 10 horas de evolución, se realiza laparotomía para reducción de la evisceración y reparación del defecto de cúpula vaginal. Se hace una búsqueda en Medline vía PubMed, Embase, Elsevier, Medigraphic, Wolters Kluwer Health y UpToDate con los términos: "dehiscencia de cúpula vaginal", "evisceración intestinal transvaginal", "dehiscencia posterior a histerectomía", "complicaciones histerectomía", y en bola de nieve a partir de los estudios identificados, en idiomas inglés y español. Resultados: se incluyeron 14 estudios. El diagnóstico de la evisceración transvaginal es eminentemente clínico al observar salida de contenido abdominal por vagina, se puede asociar a signos de peritonitis u obstrucción intestinal. Su manejo inicial debe intentar el empaquetamiento vaginal y la profilaxis antibiótica Se han descrito varias técnicas quirúrgicas para corregir el defecto de la cúpula vaginal y reforzar el cierre de la dehiscencia de la cúpula. Conclusiones: la evisceración transvaginal se considera una urgencia quirúrgica. Se requieren más estudios que evalúen la seguridad y la efectividad de las diferentes intervenciones para el manejo.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Background Vaginal evisceration is a rare problem, usually related to a previous hysterectomy. We report a case of spontaneous rupture of the cul-de-sac in a premenopausal woman under treatment with glucocorticoids to treat Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), with uterine prolapse that occurred during evacuation. Case Report A 40-year-old woman with SLE, using glucocorticoids, with uterine prolapse grade 4 (POP-Q), awaiting surgery presented at the emergency room with vaginal bleeding after Valsalva during defaction. Uterine prolapse associated with vaginal evisceration was identified. Under vaginal examination, we confirmed the bowel viability and performed a vaginal hysterectomy and sacrospinous fixation. Case hypothesis This case draws attention to the extreme risk of untreated uterine prolapse, as well as the importance of multidisciplinary care of patients with vaginal prolapse and chronic diseases.

RESUMO

Evisceration is a condition in which abdominal viscera protrude through an unnatural hole, with an incidence between 0.03 and 4.1%. This condition often occurs after an abdominal hysterectomy (47%), vaginal hysterectomy (29.4%) or laparoscopic approach (23.6%). It has the highest incidence in hysterectomized postmenopausal women, while the time interval between surgery and complication onset may vary from a few days to a few years. Moreover, in most cases, the eviscerated organ is the small intestine, which represents a surgical emergency. Transvaginal evisceration is a rare entity and is scarcely documented; the case of a 81-year-old patient with a history of abdominal hysterectomy, who attended the medical service after eight hours of evolution of a clinical picture characterized by pelvic pain and ejection of the large intestine (sigmoid colon) through the vaginal canal is presented here. The patient underwent an exploratory laparotomy, Hartmann colostomy, rectopexy to the promontory and restitution of traffic in a subsequent procedure; after presenting a satisfactory evolution, she was discharged.

La evisceración es la salida de vísceras abdominales a través de un orificio no natural con una incidencia entre 0.03 y 4.1%. Esta condición con frecuencia ocurre tras una histerectomía abdominal (47%), una histerectomía vaginal (29.4%) o luego de practicarse un abordaje laparoscópico (23.6%). Tiene mayor incidencia en mujeres posmenopáusicas histerectomizadas, mientras que el intervalo de tiempo entre el acto quirúrgico y la complicación puede variar de pocos días a algunos años. Por otra parte, en la mayoría de los casos, el órgano eviscerado es el intestino delgado, lo que representa una emergencia quirúrgica. Teniendo en cuenta que la evisceración transvaginal es una entidad muy rara, además de la escasa información al respecto, se presenta el caso de una paciente de 81 años, con antecedentes de histerectomía abdominal, que acudió al servicio médico por presentar ocho horas de evolución de cuadro clínico caracterizado por dolor pélvico y salida del intestino grueso (colón sigmoide) por canal vaginal. La paciente fue sometida a laparotomía exploratoria, colostomía tipo Hartmann, rectopexia a promontorio y restitución del tránsito en segundo tiempo; luego de presentar una evolución satisfactoria, fue dada de alta.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Surgical treatment of "Ren Mobilis" has historically been associated with poor results and fairly high morbidity. We have used a transperitoneal laparoscopic approach in order to minimize morbidity. The goal of this study was to evaluate the success rate and to discuss the possible pathogenic mechanism, which has implications for the surgical strategy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seven women with a right mobile kidney were examined by intravenous pyelogram and CT scans. Symptoms were judged to emanate from the mobile kidney. Transperitoneal laparoscopic nephropexy was performed. The surgical treatment consisted of fixing the kidney to the dorsal abdominal wall using tissue glue (Tisseel) after diathermy coagulation of the surfaces to induce fibrosis. The right colon was fixed with clips to the lateral abdominal wall, trapping the kidney in place. RESULTS: In 6 of the cases, there was an incomplete rotation of the ascending colon to the right side, allowing the kidney to move freely. In one case, the kidney moved into a retroperitoneal pocket of the mesocolon. The 6 cases with a lateral passage for the kidney were symptom-free at follow-up (30-80 months), but in the 7th case the patient's kidney quickly loosened and she underwent an open reoperation, after which she was symptom-free. CONCLUSION: Our series demonstrates that good results can be achieved with a transperitoneal laparoscopic approach, but also indicates that there is a common pathogenic mechanism with incomplete rotation of the ascending colon that can be corrected during surgery, which might contribute to the good results.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To review the effectiveness of preoperative urodynamic study made with correction of the severe genital prolapse by Bresky valve in the diagnosis of urinary occult incontinence, in order to plan a correction with a prophylactic sub-mid urethral mesh in the prolapse surgery. PATIENTS AND METHOD: Patients of the Urogynecology and Vaginal Surgery Unit of Las Condes Clinic, between January 2006 and December 2007, with grade III or IV cystocele. A condition was patients without previous prolapse and/or incontinence surgeries. A non multichannel urodynamics test was made with prolapse correction by a Bresky valve. The urethra retro resistance measurement and cystometry was made. In the women in whom the occult urinary incontinence was discards the prolapse surgery was made with Prolift mesh. In the women with occult incontinence a prophylactic sub-mid urethral tape was applied in the prolapse surgery, to avoid the appearance of incontinence after surgery. RESULTS: Thirty eight women fulfilled the criterion to enter in this study, 14 (36.8%) of them did not register occult urinary incontinence in the urodynamic test. In the 24 (63.2%) with occult incontinence: Type I in 1: type II in 2: type III in 1 and type II+III in 10. During the cystometry 3 of them registered an asymptomatic hyperactive detrusor. In 1 (4.2%) of the 24 patients with prophylactic incontinence surgery, in the immediate postoperative time a failure was observed. The rest 23 women did not present incontinence during the observation period between 4 to 24 months. In the 14 women only with prolapse surgery incontinence was not registered. CONCLUSIONS: The preoperative urodynamic test with correction of severe genital prolapse by Bresky valve is an efficient method to detect the occult urinary incontinence. This allows planning a prophylactic incontinence surgery. According to our experience this method is safe and effective to avoid that the occult incontinence appears after a severe cystocele surgery repair and allows to given an integral solution to the pelvic floor problems that frequently sees associate, because they risk factors are the same to these conditions and both cause a high degree of deterioration of quality of life.

RESUMO

Antecedentes: Las eventraciones agudas son una de las complicaciones más frecuentes de cualquier laparotomía. Las síntesis de estas últimas se realiza por preferencias personales más que por protocolos basados en la evidencia.Objetivos: relacionar la apariencia de esta complicación con la experiencia de los residentes y el material de síntesis utilizado comparando dos de los tipos mas frecuentes de síntesis.Lugar de aplicación: Hospital polivalente de alta complejidad.Diseño: Prospectivo, Observacional.Material y Método: Fichado de 126 laparotomías medianas infraumbilicales programadas entre Enero 2002 y Enero 2005. Se dividió la población en dos grupos homogéneos según el tipo de síntesis y el año de residencia del cirujano. Grupo 1: (n = 73) dos planos de poliglactina y Polipropileno 1. Grupo 2: (n = 53) monoplano Polipropileno 1. En ambos casos en sutura continua sin cruzar, con un largo nomenos a 4 veces al de la herida.Resultados: Se identificaron 5 eventraciones agudas (4). En el grupo 1: 4/73 casos (5.4). En el 2: 1/53 casos (1.8). La infección de sitio quirúrgico (ISQ) se asoció en 3 de los 5 casos. La mortalidad fue de dos casos. Los residentes de menor experiencia tuvieron mayor índice en la aparición de esta complicación.Conclusiones: Los mayores de 60 años, con ISQ asociada tuvieron mayor predisposición para las eventraciones agudas, independientemente al tipo de síntesis o equipo quirúrgico elegido. La sutura continua en monoplano de polipropileno resultó más efectiva en la prevención de esta complicación.La aparición de las eventraciones disminuye con la experiencia del residente.
