We investigate the effects of salt concentration on the rheological properties of dipeptide hydrogel fibres at liquid-liquid interfaces. The interfaces were subjected to large amplitude oscillatory dilation (LAOD) experiments across a range of oscillation strains and frequencies. Lissajous plots of pressure-strain were used for characterizing the viscoelastic properties and for identifying apparent yielding. We show that key aspects of the rheological response of the interfaces vary significantly with salt concentration. At low strain, independent of salt concentration, Lissajous curves show an almost elliptical shape. As the strain is increased, asymmetry in Lissajous curves evidences a non-linear response. The departure from an ellipse is most obvious at negative strain (at moderate to high salt concentrations) and is suggestive of strain-hardening on compression. The Lissajous curves tilt towards the diagonal at elevated salt concentration demonstrating that the interfaces are becoming increasingly elastic. However, increasing the frequency of the oscillation has little systematic effect. We infer that the addition of salt leads to the development of structure on the interfaces from our observations strain-hardening and of the increasingly elastic response. To fully capture the range of behaviour, we suggest a modification of the analysis to calculate the strain-hardening ratio S used to quantify the degree of non-linearities from Lissajous figures, so as to better reveal the presence of instant strain-softening and strain-hardening responses.

Resumen Introduccion Las hernias incisionales secundarias al trasplante renal (HITR) se consideran hernias complejas debido a su localizacion lateral a la vaina del musculo recto abdominal. Tambien influyen la presencia del injerto en la fosa iliaca y la proximidad del area inguinal, el margen costal y los huesos iliacos como rebordes de dificil fijacion de la protesis. Ademas, estos pacientes presentan connotaciones especificas, como el tratamiento con inmunosupresores, que podrian alterar la evolucion postoperatoria. El objetivo del estudio fue analizar los resultados obtenidos en la reparacion de las HITR en un hospital terciario, comparando estos datos con la literatura internacional. Metodos Estudio observacional retrospectivo, desde el 1 de enero de 2011 al 31 de enero de 2018, de los pacientes operados de HITR en nuestra unidad. Analisis de factores preoperatorios, intraoperatorios y de complicaciones postoperatorias observados durante el seguimiento. Resultados Se operaron 25 pacientes, encontrando un indice de recidiva herniaria del 4% tras un seguimiento mediano de 27,5 meses (20-39). La tecnica mas utilizada fue la separacion posterior de componentes con liberacion del transverso en un 42%, seguida de la reparacion preperitoneal en un 27% y la reparacion interoblicuos en un 12%. La morbilidad postoperatoria global fue del 23%, siendo las mas frecuentes las relacionadas con el sitio quirurgico (12%). Conclusiones La reparacion de las HITR es un procedimiento seguro en nuestro centro, con un indice de recidiva herniaria aceptable, aunque no exento de complicaciones.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Fernando Carbonell da Fontoura_.pdf: 2322370 bytes, checksum: 2a415c41af2b665dad22a7041a8b65f2 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2021-08-21 CAPES - Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior A ética estoica se insere dentro de uma ética das virtudes, no entanto, por seu momento histórico e desenvolvimento único dentro das escolas filosóficas tanto da antiguidade clássica quanto do helenismo, ela propõe maneiras de ver o desenvolvimento ético pessoal e social diferente das outras escolas, tanto de sua época, os epicuristas, quanto da antiguidade clássica, a ética platônica/aristotélica. Na hegemonia acadêmica da ética das de Aristóteles quanto a uma ética das virtudes, vamos propor uma ética estoica que possa dialogar tanto com outras éticas contemporâneas – a deontológica e a consequencialista – quanto mostrar que ela pode enfrentar questões de uma ética das virtudes sob outro prisma. No intuito de mostrar a força e amplitude da ética estoica, não faremos aqui comparações entre ela e outras éticas, mas delinearemos sua ética em cima de uma questão moral que até hoje, nas discussões éticas e sociais, aparece como uma aporia, a relação entre o desenvolvimento ético pessoal e a consideração aos outros ou ao social. Ao desenvolver essa aporia dentro dos conceitos e horizontes da ética estoica, daremos uma visão mais geral e ampla do que aquilo que, muitas vezes, é uma noção pobre ou até mesmo errada do estoicismo sobre suas concepções enquanto escola filosófica. Embora a fortaleza individual ou autarkeia seja uma das noções do desenvolvimento ético estoico, mostraremos o quanto essa noção está inserida e apoiada pelos atos adequados enquanto sociais e de como o aperfeiçoamento individual leva ao comprometimento social. Stoic ethics is part of an ethics of virtues, however, due to its historical moment and unique development within the philosophical schools of both classical antiquity and Hellenism, it proposes ways to see personal and social ethical development differently from other schools, both from his time, the Epicureans, and from classical antiquity, the Platonic/Aristotelian ethics. In the academic hegemony of Aristotle's ethics as an ethics of virtues, we will propose a stoic ethics that can dialogue both with other contemporary ethics – deontological and consequentialist – and show that it can face issues of an ethics of virtues from another perspective. In order to show the strength and breadth of Stoic ethics, we will not make comparisons between it and other ethics here, but we will outline its ethics on top of a moral issue that even today, in ethical and social discussions, appears as an aporia, the relationship between personal ethical development and consideration for others or the social. By developing this aporia within the concepts and horizons of Stoic ethics, we will give a broader view than what is often a poor or even wrong notion of Stoicism about its conceptions as a philosophical school. Although individual strength or autarkeia is one of the notions of Stoic ethical development, we will show how much this notion is embedded and supported by appropriate acts as social and how individual improvement leads to social commitment.

Gracias al desarrollo continuo de las tecnologías en telecomunicaciones, el uso de los teléfonos inteligentes se ha ido enaumento, favoreciendo el crecimiento de las aplicaciones móviles (app). Actualmente, existen más de 700.000 en las diversas plataformas, de las cuales el 3% están relacionadas con temas de salud. Las apps en salud se encuentran enmarcadas en el concepto de salud móvil o mHealth, que en la actualidad no tiene una definición clara, pero la OMS se ha referido a este como la práctica de la medicina y la salud pública soportada por dispositivos móviles. Hasta el momento existen varias revisiones sobre aplicaciones móviles en otras disciplinas médicas, la cantidad de dichas revisiones sobre apps siendo utilizadas en áreas de las neurociencias son pocas, muy a pesar de que su uso en pacientes y personal médico ha ido en aumento. Dentro de los beneficios por su uso se han descrito el poder realizar seguimientos más objetivos y estandarizados, mayor comunicación entre los integrantes del equipo médico y respuestas más rápidas en casos de emergencias. Por parte de los pacientes estos han tenido mayor adquisición de conocimiento en relación a su enfermedad y mayores tasas de adherencia a los tratamientos.

To clarify the factors related to recurrence after component separation technique (CST). A retrospective study was conducted of 381 patients who underwent CST between May 2006 and May 2017 at a tertiary center. All patients had a transverse hernia defect grade W3 in EHS classification. Recurrence rate was determined by clinical examination plus confirmation by abdominal CT scan. At a median of 61.6 months of postoperative follow-up, we reported 34 cases of hernia recurrence (8.9%). On multivariate analysis, BMI > 30 (OR 2.20; CI 1.10–3.91, p = 0.031), immunosuppressive drug use (OR 1.06 CI 1.48–2.75, p = 0.003) and development of surgical site infection (OR 2.7; CI 1.53–4.01, p = 0.002) were factors of recurrence after CST. There was no difference in recurrence rate among repairs of primary and recurrent hernias, urgent repair, operative time, type of prosthesis, or concomitant procedures, even planned or unplanned enterotomies. Obesity (BMI > 30), immunosuppressive drug use, and postoperative wound infections were predictors of recurrence after CST.

Background An increasing number of patients have large or complex abdominal wall defects. Component separation technique (CST) is a very effective method for reconstructing complex midline abdominal wall defects in a manner that restores innervated muscle function without excessive tension. Our goal is to show our results by a modified CST for treating large ventral hernias. Materials and methods A total of 351 patients with complex ventral hernias have been treated over a 10-year period. Pre-and postoperative CT scans were performed in all patients. All ventral hernias were W3, according to the EHS classification 1. We analyzed demographic variables, co-morbidities, hernia characteristics, operative, and post-operative variables. Results One hundred and seventy patients (48.4%) were men; the average age of the study population was 51.6 +/- 23.2 years with an average BMI of 32.3 +/- 1.3. The hernia was located in the midline in 321 cases (91.5%) versus the flank in 30 (8.5%). In 45 patients, preoperative botulinum toxin (BT) and progressive pneumoperitoneum (PPP) were needed due to giant hernia defects when the VIH/VAC ratio was > 20%. Postoperative complications related to the surgical site were seroma (35.1%), hematoma (9.1%), infection (7.2%), and wound necrosis (8.8%). Complications related to the repair were evisceration in 3 patients (1.1%), small bowel fistula in 4 patients (1.5%), 11 cases of mesh infection (2.9%), and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in 2 patients. There were 29 hernia recurrences (8.2%) with a mean follow-up of 31.6 +/- 8.1 months. Conclusion The modified CST is an effective strategy for managing complex ventral hernias that enables primary fascial closure with low rates of morbidity and hernia recurrence.

Introduction Incisional hernias secondary to renal transplantation (IHRT) are considered complex hernias because they are lateral to the sheath of the rectus abdominis muscle. The presence of the graft in the iliac fossa and the proximity to the inguinal area, costal margin and iliac bones, as zones with difficult fixation for prostheses, increases repair complexity. In addition, these patients have specific characteristics, such as treatment with immunosuppressive medication, that could alter postoperative evolution. The objective of this study was to analyze the results obtained in IHRT repair at a tertiary hospital, and to compare these data with the international literature. Methods Retrospective observational study of patients treated surgically for IHRT in our unit from January 1, 2011 to January 31, 2018. Preoperative conditions, intraoperative factors and postoperative complications during follow-up were analyzed. Results Twenty-five patients underwent hernia repair, finding a 4% hernia recurrence rate during a median follow-up of 27.5 months (20–39). The most frequently used technique was the posterior transversus abdominis release component separation technique in 42%, followed by preperitoneal repair in 27% and interoblique repair in 12%. The overall postoperative morbidity was 23%, which was frequently related to the surgical site (12%). Conclusions IHRT repair is a safe procedure at our medical center, with an acceptable rate of hernia recurrence, but it is not without complications.

Background The main objective was to identify predictive factors associated with prosthesis infection and mesh explantation after abdominal wall hernia repair (AWHR). Methods This is a retrospective review of all patients who underwent AWHR from January 2004 to May 2014 at a tertiary center. Multivariate analysis identified predictors of mesh infection and explantation after AWHR. Results From 3,470 cases of AWHR, we reported 66 cases (1.9%) of mesh infection, and 48 repairs (72.7%) required mesh explantation. Steroid or immunosuppressive drugs use (odds ratio [OR] 2.22; confidence interval [CI] 1.16 to 3.95), urgent repair (OR 5.06; CI 2.21 to 8.60), and postoperative surgical site infection (OR 2.9; CI 1.55 to 4.10) were predictive of mesh infection. Predictors of mesh explantation were type of mesh (OR 3.13; CI 1.71 to 5.21), onlay position (OR 3.51; CI 1.23 to 6.12), and associated enterotomy in the same procedure (OR 5.17; CI 2.05 to 7.12). Conclusions Immunosuppressive drugs use, urgent repair, and postoperative surgical site infection are predictive of mesh infection. Risk factors of prosthesis explantation are polytetrafluoroethylene mesh, onlay mesh position, and associated enterotomy in the same procedure.

ResumenIntroducciónEl esfínter urinario artificial se utiliza en el tratamiento de la incontinencia urinaria secundaria a cirugía prostática. Los pacientes con esfínter urinario pueden precisar cirugía por una hernia inguinal ipsilateral.Caso clínicoPresentamos el caso de un paciente de 66 años con esfínter artificial tras resección transuretral prostática y una hernia inguinal izquierda sintomática, y describimos la técnica quirúrgica.DiscusiónEl esfínter urinario consta de un manguito oclusivo situado en la uretra bulbar, una bomba de control en el escroto y un balón regulador de presión en el espacio preperitoneal situado en la región inguinal, conectados por tubos. La vía de abordaje más utilizada para su colocación es a través de una incisión perineal y otra inguinal. Las recomendaciones durante la hernioplastia en estos pacientes son: utilizar profilaxis antibiótica y una técnica meticulosa para disminuir el riesgo de infección, y evitar la manipulación de los tubos conectores con material traumático, y evitar la manipulación del reservorio con cualquier instrumental y el contacto con el bisturí eléctrico por riesgo de rotura. Las complicaciones específicas son: infección del sistema que requiere la retirada del dispositivo y antibioterapia, y la rotura de algún componente que requiere su sustitución.ConclusionesLa hernioplastia inguinal ipsilateral en pacientes con esfínter artificial es una técnica segura si se siguen unas pautas respecto a la manipulación intraoperatoria de los componentes del sistema en la región inguinal.AbstractIntroductionThe artificial urinary sphincter is used to treat urinary incontinence following prostate surgery. Patients treated with this device and with symptomatic ipsilateral inguinal hernia may require hernioplasty.Case reportWe present the case of a 66 year-old man who had an artificial urinary sphincter after transurethral prostatic resection and a symptomatic left inguinal hernia; and we describe the surgical approach.DiscussionThe artificial urinary sphincter consists of different parts: an inflatable cuff placed in bulbar urethra, a control pump placed in scrotum, a pressure regulating balloon placed in the preperitoneal space and connectors. Most frequently two incisions are made for device placement: in the midline of the perineum and in the right or left lower quadrant just above the inguinal canal. During ipsilateral hernia repair we recommend: administering antibiotic prophylaxis preoperatively and using a meticulous surgical technique to reduce risk infection; to avoid handling connectors with traumatic instruments; to avoid manipulating the balloon and to avoid contact with the electric scalpel. Specific complications are: infection, that would require removal of the device and antibiotic treatment, or balloon or connectors tear,which would require replacing the component.ConclusionsIpsilateral hernia repair is a safe procedure in patients with artificial urinary sphincter, provided that we know how to manipulate the device and its components in the inguinal region during surgery.

ResumenLa extirpación quirúrgica es el tratamiento de elección en los tumores de la pared abdominal. La radioterapia puede resultar muy útil para reducir el volumen de los tumores y hacerlos accesibles a la cirugía, además de servir como tratamiento adyuvante en casos de tumores de alto riesgo de recidiva o cirugías subóptimas. El tipo de exéresis variará en función del tipo de tumor. Así, en tumores benignos, una exéresis simple será suficiente. En caso de tumores de malignidad intermedia (poca capacidad de metástasis pero con alto riesgo de recaídas locales), la cirugía se irá adaptando a esta, pasando de una cirugía amplia para el tumor desmoide a una cirugía micrográfica de Mohs para el dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans y a una cirugía radical compartimental con reconstrucción de la pared para el sarcoma de partes blandas. Las metástasis en la pared abdominal se tratarán de la misma forma que los sarcomas. En cualquier caso, para el éxito de cualquier intervención es fundamental conseguir unos márgenes quirúrgicos libres de tumor, junto a una estética y funcionalidad aceptables.AbstractSurgical removal is the cornerstone of treatment of tumours of the abdominal wall. Radiation therapy can be very helpful in reducing tumour volume and make them accessible to surgery and adjuvant treatment for tumours at high risk of recurrence or suboptimal surgery. Excision type vary depending on the type of tumour. Thus, a simple excision for benign tumours will suffice. In case of tumours of intermediate malignancy (metastasis but little capacity at high risk of local relapse) surgery will adapt to it; going from a wide desmoid tumour surgery for a Mohs micrographic surgery for dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and one compartment radical surgery with reconstruction of the wall for soft tissue sarcoma. Metastases in the abdominal wall are treated in the same way as sarcomas. In any case for the success of any intervention it is critical to achieve tumour-free surgical margins, along with acceptable aesthetics and functionality.

ResumenIntroducciónLas hernias congénitas del diafragma tipo Morgagni son raras, no solo por su baja frecuencia, sino porque a veces pasan desapercibidas en la infancia y comienzan a dar síntomas en la edad adulta. La reducción de su contenido a la cavidad abdominal –si es muy voluminoso– y el cierre de la brecha diafragmática pueden producir cuadros de insuficiencia respiratoria y de síndrome compartimental, que pueden poner en peligro la vida del paciente.Caso clínicoPresentamos el caso de una paciente de 62 años, obesa y portadora de una hernia de Morgagni gigante que ocupaba las dos terceras partes del hemitórax derecho. En la tomografía axial toracoabdominopélvica se evidenció una hernia de gran volumen (22.8×14.1×17.2cm) con contenido de intestino delgado, colon ascendente y transverso. En el preoperatorio, en la pared abdominal y como prevención de posible síndrome compartimental, se utilizó toxina botulínica, con el fin de obtener una relajación de la musculatura de la pared y mejorar el volumen de la cavidad abdominal. A los 21 días de la aplicación de la toxina se obtuvo un aumento del volumen de la cavidad abdominal de un 37% (5035 frente a 6900cc).La paciente fue intervenida quirúrgicamente a través de una laparotomía subcostal derecha, realizándose un cierre simple del orificio diafragmático y sin objetivarse en el posoperatorio ninguna complicación.ConclusiónDespués del tratamiento de este caso, consideramos el empleo de la toxina botulínica como una opción terapéutica en la prevención de posibles complicaciones en las hernias de diafragma (Morgagni), especialmente en las de gran tamaño, donde el retorno del contenido herniado pudiera causar un síndrome compartimental agudo.AbstractIntroductionCongenital hernias of the diaphragm, such as giant Morgagni hernia, are rarely seen, both because of their low prevalence and also because they sometimes go unnoticed in childhood, producing symptoms later into adulthood. During the surgical repair of a large hernia of the diaphragm, reintroducing the hernia's contents in the abdominal cavity and closing the diaphragm orifice can lead to compressive symptoms, such as respiratory insufficiency or compartment syndrome, threatening patient's life.Case reportWe report the case of a 62-year-old obese woman with a giant Morgagni hernia that occupied 2/3 of the right side of the thorax. A computerized tomography of the chest, abdomen and pelvis revealed a large hernia (22.8×14.1×17.2cm) containing small bowel, and ascending and transverse colon. Before surgical repair of the hernia, botulinum toxin was injected in the abdominal wall to relax the muscles and increase the volume of the abdominal cavity for better accommodation of the returned hernial contents. Twenty-one days after treatment with the toxin, the volume of the abdominal cavity had expanded by 37% (5035 vs 6900ml).The patient was subsequently subjected to simple closure of the hernia defect through a right subcostal laparotomy. No complications were produced.ConclusionAfter treatment of this case, we consider the use of botulinum toxin is a good preventive measure against complications of diaphragmatic hernias (Morgagni), especially in large ones, where the return of the herniated contents could cause an acute compartment syndrome.

ResumenIntroducciónEstudio de pacientes prostatectomizados por vía retropúbica que presentan una hernia inguinal que ha sido reparada por la técnica tipo Nyhus «corto» o «técnica de Dávila».Material y métodoEstudio prospectivo de 85 pacientes prostatectomizados (84 por vía retropúbica y uno laparoscópica) con 93 reparaciones por la vía modificada de Nyhus, seleccionados de una serie global de 3 078 reparaciones preperitoneales con la misma técnica en 2863 pacientes, en 27 años. Media de edad de 69.2±7.4 años (42-86 años). No hubo selección de pacientes. La técnica se realizó a través de un espacio preperitoneal con adherencias posprostatectomía, y en todos los casos se colocó una malla de polipropileno de baja densidad macroporosa o una autoadhesiva Parietene ProGrip®.ResultadosEn 92 reparaciones el espacio preperitoneal fue abordable con pocas dificultades, pero el único prostatectomizado por laparoscopia presentó un alto nivel de dificultad, resuelto sin incidencias. El tiempo operatorio medio fue de 24.0±5.7min, y de 17.4±4.4min en los pacientes con malla autoadhesiva. La morbilidad hallada fue de 15 hematomas, 16 seromas y 4 hematomas escrotales. No hubo infección ni dolor inguinal crónico o recidivas en el seguimiento de 64 pacientes (75.3%) entre 1-26 años.ConclusionesLa supuesta complejidad y peligrosidad del abordaje preperitoneal abierto en el paciente prostatectomizado, para tratarle una hernia inguinal por vía preperitoneal posterior abierta mediante la técnica de Nyhus modificada (Nyhus «corto» o «técnica de Dávila»), no se ha constatado en esta serie, con buenos resultados a corto y muy largo plazo.AbstractIntroductionStudy of patients who underwent a retropubic prostatectomy and developed an inguinal hernia that has been repaired with the «short» Nyhus technique or «Dr. Davila's technique».Material and methodProspective study: 85 prostatectomized patients (84 retropubic route and one laparoscopic) with 93 repairs using the modified Nyhus technique were selected out of a global series of 3 078 preperitoneal repairs using the same technique on 2863 patients, over the course of 27 years. Mean age: 69.2±7.4 years (42-86 years). There were no criteria to select patients. Technique was performed by means of a preperitoneal space with adhesions post-prostatectomy, and in all cases a low density macroporous polypropylene mesh or a self-fixating Parietene ProGrip® was placed.ResultsIn 92 of the repairs the preperitoneal space was treatable with few difficulties; however, the only laparoscopic prostatectomy showed a great degree of difficulty that was resolved without any incidents. The mean operating time was 24.0±5.7min and 17.4±4.4min on those patients with a self-fixating mesh. Morbidity results: 15 hematomas, 16 seromas, 4 scrotal hematomas. There were no infections, no chronic inguinal pain or relapses during the follow-up process of 64 patients (75.3%) between 1-26 years of age.ConclusionsThere has been no evidence of the alleged complexity and risk of the open preperitoneal approach in the prostatectomized patient in order to treat an inguinal hernia with an open posterior preperitoneal approach by means of the modified Nyhus («short» Nyhus or «Dr. Davila's technique»). Both short and long-term results have been successful.

Introducción: La hernia paraestomal o estomal es una complicación a largo plazo de los estomas que limita la calidad de vida de los pacientes. No está establecido cuál es la mejor técnica ni la mejor vía de abordaje para su reparación. Describimos una nueva técnica usada en casos de eventración paraestomal con eventración de línea media asociada o sin ella. Material y métodos: Fueron intervenidos 15 pacientes con esta técnica (9 con colostomía y 6 con urostomía), que se realiza con abordaje abierto y que combina el uso de una malla intraperitoneal (IPST®) y una separación de componentes con malla de polipropileno supraaponeurótica y nuevas inserciones musculares.Esta técnica ha sido desarrollada por el Servicio de Cirugía del Instituto Valenciano de Oncología (IVO), por lo que los autores la han denominado «Técnica IVO para reparación de hernia paraestomal». Resultados: La estancia media fue 5.6 días. Dos pacientes (13.3 %) presentaron un seroma de herida. No hubo casos de infección de herida quirúrgica, necrosis cutánea ni recidiva de la eventración. El seguimiento medio fue de 16 meses (2-48 meses).Conclusiones: La técnica IVO es segura y reproducible, y permite cerrar los defectos sin tensión, restablecer la biomecánica de la pared y reforzar la zona paraestomal y la línea media. Es necesario un mayor número de casos y mayor tiempo de seguimiento para evaluar su defi nitiva efi cacia a largo plazo.

Preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum and botulinum toxin type A are useful tools in the preparation of patients with loss of domain hernias. Both procedures are complementary in the surgical repair, especially with the use of prosthetic techniques without tension, that allow a integral management of these patients. The aim of this paper is to update concepts related to both procedures, emphasizing the advantages that take place in the preoperative management of loss of domain hernias.

ResumenIntroducciónLas hernias obturatrices son extremadamente raras (aproximadamente menos del 1% de todas las hernias). Normalmente se dan en mujeres ancianas, multíparas y desnutridas. La tomografía computarizada es una herramienta útil para el diagnóstico. Presentamos el caso de un paciente diagnosticado de hernia obturatriz incarcerada y tratado por vía laparoscópica.Material y métodoVarón de 55 años de edad con antecedentes de cirrosis alcohólica (estadio B de Child Pugh), que ingresó en el hospital por presentar dolor abdominal y vómitos. La radiografía de abdomen simple reveló signos compatibles con suboclusión intestinal. El paciente fue tratado de modo conservador, con tratamiento médico del cuadro suboclusivo, pero el dolor abdominal empeoró y se le irradió a la cara medial del muslo derecho (signo de Howship-Romberg). Se le realizó una tomografía computarizada, que reveló un segmento de íleon terminal que protruía por el orificio obturador.ResultadosSe decidió el abordaje laparoscópico del paciente. Se redujo el contenido herniario hacia la cavidad abdominal, usando pinzas atraumáticas. No se evidenciaron signos de sufrimiento intestinal. Se cubrió el orificio obturador con un tapón preformado de polipropileno y luego se cubrió con un flap de peritoneo.ConclusionesUn diagnóstico y tratamiento temprano son esenciales para reducir el tiempo de estrangulación y mortalidad en estos pacientes. El tratamiento laparoscópico es una alternativa diagnóstica y terapéutica.AbstractIntroductionObturator hernias are considered very rare, accounting for approximately less than 1% of all hernias, and usually occur in multiparous women or elderly emaciated individuals. Abdominal computed tomography is a useful tool for diagnosis. We report a case of an obturator hernia repaired laparoscopically.Material and methodA 55-year old patient with Child-Pugh stage B alcoholic cirrhosis, was admitted to our hospital due to abdominal pain and vomiting. Plain abdominal radiography showed dilated small bowel loops indicating obstruction. The patient was managed conservatively, but abdominal pain worsened, radiating along the medial side of the right thigh (Howship-Romberg sign). A computed tomography scan was then ordered, revealing a loop of small bowel protruding into the obturator canal.ResultsFinally, the patient underwent laparoscopic surgery. The herniated ileum was replaced into the peritoneal cavity using atraumatic graspers. The obturator orifice was closed with a polypropelene plug and then covered with peritoneum flap.ConclusionsEarly diagnosis and treament are essential in order to reduce the rate of strangulation and mortality in these cases. Laparoscopic approach is an alternative option in the diagnosis and treatment of obturator hernias.

A filosofia como modo de vida ? mat?ria das escolas filos?ficas antigas, tanto gregas quanto romanas. Para tanto, v?rias escolas filos?ficas desenvolveram discursos para esclarecer e apoiar a pr?tica filos?fica. Essa ? a ideia central de Pierre Hadot, fil?sofo franc?s que retoma a quest?o da filosofia como modo de vida e do qual partimos para o desenvolvimento dos argumentos em dire??o a uma ?tica do bem viver. Este trabalho de disserta??o desenvolver? uma ?tica do bem viver espec?fica do fil?sofo greco-romano Epicteto, que viveu no primeiro s?culo de nossa era. A busca por um ideal de vida tinha como t?picos fundamentais as virtudes (aretai), a felicidade (eudaimonia), o sereno fluxo de vida (euroia), a imperturba??o da alma (ataraxia). Por?m, a euroia ser? considerada aqui como o pr?prio objetivo da ?tica do bem viver de Epicteto, essa se desenvolvendo pelo exerc?cio das virtudes. Para efetivar essa a ?tica do bem viver mostraremos a teoria da a??o de Epicteto e as estruturas fundamentais para que ela se realize. Dentro da teoria da a??o a proairesis ? ponto fundamental onde a raz?o e a diferencia??o entre aquilo que est? em nosso poder (eph?h?min) daquilo que n?o est? em nosso poder (?k eph?h?min) s?o de suma import?ncia para o desenvolvimento de uma terap?utica de si em dire??o ? euroia. Philosophy as a way of life is a matter of ancient philosophical schools, both Greek and Roman. To this end, several philosophical schools have developed discourses to clarify and support philosophical practice. This is the central idea of Pierre Hadot, a French philosopher who takes up the question of philosophy as a way of life and from which we set out to develop arguments towards an ethic of good living. This work of dissertation will develop a specific ethic of good living of the Greek-Roman philosopher Epictetus, who lived in the first century of our era. The search for an ideal of life had as fundamental topics the virtues (aretai), happiness (eudaimonia), the serene flow of life (euroia), the imperturbation of the soul (ataraxia). However, the euroia will be considered here as the fundamental goal of the ethics of well-being, which is developed by the exercise of the virtues. To accomplish this, the ethics of good living will show Epictetus's theory of action and the fundamental structures for it to be realized. Within the theory of action proairesis is a fundamental point where reason and the differentiation between that which is in our power (eph'h?min) of that which is not in our power (?k eph'h?min) are of paramount importance for the development of a therapy of yourself toward euroia.

Background: To compare the results with complete mesh removal (CMR) versus partial mesh removal (PMR) in the treatment of mesh infection after abdominal wall hernia repair (AWHR). Methods: Retrospective review of all patients who underwent surgery for mesh infection between January 2004 and May 2014 at a tertiary center. Results: Of 3470 cases of AWHR, we reported 66 cases (1.9%) of mesh infection, and 48 repairs (72.7%) required mesh explantation. CMR was achieved on 38 occasions, while PMR was undertaken ten times. We observed more postoperative complications in CMR than PMR group (p = 0.04). Three patients with intestinal fistula were reoperated in postoperative period after a difficult mesh removal; one of them died due to multiple organ failure. The overall recurrence rate after explantation was 47.9%: recurrence was more frequent in CMR group (p = 0.001), although persistent or new mesh infection was observed more frequently with PMR (p = 0.001). Conclusions: Although PMR has less postoperative morbidity, shorter duration of hospitalization and lower rate of recurrence than CMR, prosthetic infection persists in up to 50% of cases.

Resumen Introduccion La eventracion subxifoidea tiene caracteristicas que la diferencian del resto y le dan entidad propia. El hecho de tener su saco muy proximo a los relieves costales oseos y esternon condiciona mucha tension en los margenes; la reparacion, tanto por via abierta como laparoscopica, no ha demostrado buenos resultados a pesar del uso generalizado de protesis. Son poco frecuentes y se presentan en pacientes con comorbilidad importante (cardiopatas severos, trasplantados, inmunodeprimidos), tras intervenciones del area hepato-bilio-pancreatica con incisiones transversales, esternotomias ampliadas por debajo del xifoides o laparotomias medias muy altas para cirugia gastro-esofagica. Material y metodo En nuestra Unidad hemos desarrollado una nueva tecnica, basada en el uso de doble protesis y adaptada a las caracteristicas anatomo-fisiologicas de la region, para la reparacion de estas eventraciones. La serie consta de 35 pacientes intervenidos de forma consecutiva entre 2004 y 2010, siguiendo protocolo quirurgico y de manejo consensuado. Resultados No hubo complicaciones importantes –la mas frecuente es el seroma, 17,4%-, excepto un caso de infeccion de la herida por isquemia de piel en un paciente multioperado y trasplantado. El seguimiento postoperatorio hasta el dia de hoy (entre 4 y 80 meses) no ha demostrado recidivas de la eventracion y no se refieren molestias locales importantes. Conclusiones La tecnica «doble malla ajustada» consigue en nuestro medio unos buenos resultados, tanto desde el punto de vista del cirujano (reproducibilidad, recidiva), como del paciente, con minimas molestias y recuperacion de la calidad de vida.

Introduccion: El azul de metileno, se ha venido utilizando desde el siglo XIX para el tratamiento de diversas enfermedades y tambien como metodo de ayuda diagnostica en varias situaciones. Su empleo para tenir peroperatoriamente los trayectos fistulosos y las zonas afectas de las protesis con una infeccion cronica utilizadas en la reparacion de la pared abdominal es de una gran ayuda. Hasta donde conocemos no hay ningun articulo que recoja esta opcion. Demostramos su utilidad hoy. Material y metodo: A lo largo de la practica quirurgica como cirujanos especializados en pared abdominal, en el hospital publico y privado, desde 2000 a diciembre de 2017 hemos recogido 52 casos de infeccion cronica de protesis con sinus y supuracion cronica en la piel de la pared abdominal tanto de hernias primarias como de eventraciones operadas previamente con colocacion de mallas sinteticas de diferentes materiales. Resultados: En todos los casos estudiados el azul de metileno nos ha permitido reconocer el material sintetico infectado, asi como los tejidos circundantes afectos y el trayecto fistuloso. En el 60 % de los casos la protesis estaba en el espacio supra aponeurotico, de polipropileno de diferente tamano de poro y peso. Conclusion: La retirada del material protesico utilizado en cirugia de la pared abdominal para reparacion de hernias y los tejidos con una infeccion cronica por una biocapa es el tratamiento adecuado para curar esta complicacion. La tincion con azul de metileno desde el sinus supurativo en la piel, es un metodo sencillo y eficaz que permite identificar la parte afectada y resecarla en su totalidad.

Resumen Introduccion El objetivo de este trabajo es mostrar a la comunidad quirurgica una nueva tecnica para el tratamiento de eventraciones complejas y catastroficas desarrollada en este equipo: separacion anatomica de componentes (SAC) modificada por Carbonell-Bonafe. Material y metodo Se trato a 100 pacientes con eventracion compleja. Se documento tamano, contenido y reductibilidad de la eventracion (tomografia computarizada preoperatoria), recidivas y tecnicas de cierre previas, talla y peso, alteraciones troficas de la piel y necesidad de neumoperitoneo preoperatorio. Se opero siguiendo un protocolo homogeneo, con medida de presion intraabdominal antes, durante y tras la intervencion. Se evaluo al paciente en consulta a los 15 y 30 dias, mensualmente durante 3 meses, al sexto mes y anualmente hasta 5 anos. Resultados Entre enero de 2003 y mayo de 2008 se intervino a 100 pacientes consecutivos. En el postoperatorio inmediato se tuvo un 12% de seromas, un 8% de isquemia parcial de bordes de la herida y un fallecimiento debido a fallo multiorganico; en el postoperatorio tardio se tuvo un 6% de algias transitorias en los puntos de anclaje oseo. Los pacientes reanudaron su actividad habitual en una media de 2 meses con gran mejoria en su calidad de vida. No se han encontrado recidivas hasta la fecha. Conclusiones La tecnica SAC que esta Unidad ha modificado es un excelente recurso en el tratamiento de grandes eventraciones: garantiza el exito del cierre con poca morbilidad y, ademas, reconstruye la biomecanica de la pared abdominal.

Prosthesis infection is an infrequent but important complication in abdominal wall surgery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence and risk factors for the infection of the prosthesis after hernia repair, as well as the treatment to apply.Between January 2002 and December 2006, we performed 1055 prosthetic hernia repairs: 761 inguinal hernias (72.1%), 74 umbilical hernias (7%) and 220 ventral hernias (20.9%). We prospectively analysed preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative variables, as well as the incidence of infection of surgical wound and of prosthesis. We used ASA classification for preoperative anaesthetic evaluation.The overall percentage of infection of the prosthesis was 1.3%. Infection was observed in 11 repairs with polypropylene mesh (PPL), in 4 with PTFE mesh, and one case in combined mesh. Risk factors of mesh infection were: obesity (p=0.002), diabetes (p=0.020), the type of repair (p=0.047), emergency surgery (p=0.001), the type and size of mesh (p=0.003; p=0.007) and time of surgery180 min (p0.001). Seven of the 11 patients with infection of PPL prosthesis were resolved with conservative treatment, whereas all the cases with PTFE infection or mixed mesh needed removal to solve the problem.Several factors are involved in producing a prosthesis infection. Whereas antibiotic treatment and surgical drainage of the infection can be sufficient in most PPL mesh infection, PTFE prostheses need to be removed prematurely in order to halt the infection process.

Resumen Introduccion El objetivo de este estudio es valorar la influencia de la edad en la colecistectomia laparoscopica (CL) para el tratamiento de la colecistitis aguda (CTTA), determinando los beneficios y complicaciones postoperatorias en los pacientes mayores de 65 anos. Material y metodo Entre enero de 2003 y marzo de 2006, se practico un total de 134 CL por CTTA en el area de urgencias: 58 pacientes tenian edades superiores a 65 anos (grupo 1) y se los comparo con 76 pacientes mas jovenes (grupo 2). Se analiza las variables preoperatorias, intraoperatorias y postoperatorias en el grupo 1 y se las compara con el resto de la serie. Se utilizo la clasificacion ASA para valoracion preoperatoria anestesica. Resultados El grupo 1 presento en un 31,2% alto riesgo quirurgico (un 24%, ASA III y el 9,2%, ASA IV). La tasa de conversion a colecistectomia abierta fue del 24,1%, frente al 11,3% en el grupo 2 (p = 0,04), debido a dificultad en la diseccion quirurgica y hallazgo de vesicula colecistitica muy evolucionada. La estancia media postoperatoria fue de 4,7 ± 3,2 dias en el grupo 1 y de 3,3 ± 2,4 dias en el grupo 2 (p = 0,001). La tasa general de complicaciones postoperatorias fue del 33,1 y el 18,7%, respectivamente, y prevalecieron las de tipo infeccioso. Conclusiones Aunque la edad no debe ser un factor excluyente para la CL, la tasa de conversion, las complicaciones postoperatorias y la estancia hospitalaria son mayores en estos pacientes que en el resto de la poblacion. Son caracteristicas la mayor morbilidad por la enfermedad de base, y una evolucion mas larga del cuadro con hallazgos mas frecuentes de colecistitis evolucionada, que complican el abordaje laparoscopico en estos pacientes.

ResumenLas hernias traumáticas intercostales con diafragma intacto son poco comunes. Algunas veces aparecen como resultado de una laceración en los músculos intercostales, que facilita la progresión de la bolsa con hernia pulmonar o cualquier víscera abdominal. Por lo general, hay fracturas costales en el 52% de los casos. Una tomografía computarizada es muy importante, porque es diagnóstica: informa del contenido del saco, la ubicación y el tamaño del defecto y otras lesiones. Se presenta un caso de un varón de 20 años que fue llevado a la sala de urgencias de nuestro hospital con traumatismo toracoabdominal. La tomografía computarizada mostró traumatismo esplénico, renal, laceraciones de hígado y hernia intercostal izquierda con contenidos del intestino delgado y preservación del diafragma. Se realizó una laparotomía, que mostró hemoperitoneo y herniación torácica entre 9 y 10. Se redujo el contenido herniario y se realizó esplenectomía, nefrectomía izquierda y hemostasia de las laceraciones hepáticas. Liberamos el espacio preperitoneal y colocamos una malla de polipropileno de 5.9×5.9cm para cerrar la hernia, fijándola con grapas helicoidales no absorbibles y cubriéndola luego con un colgajo de peritoneo. La reparación protésica sin tensión, hoy en día, es la más recomendable. Algunos estudios sugieren el uso de pegamento para reducir el riesgo de neuralgia intercostal.AbstractTraumatic Intercostal hernias with an intact diaphragm are an uncommon case. Sometimes they appear as a result of a tear in the intercostal muscles that facilitates the progression of the sack with lung herniation or any abdominal viscera. Rib fractures are usually present in 52% of the cases. Performing a computed tomographyscan is very important because it is diagnostic: it reports the contents of the sac, the location and size of the defect, as well as other lesions. We report a case of a 20 years old male who was taken to the emergency room of our hospital with thoracoabdominal trauma. Total body computed tomography showed splenic rupture, renal failure, liver lacerations and left intercostal hernia with small bowel contents. We performed a laparotomy, which showed hemoperitoneum and herniation between the 9th and 10th ribs. Splenectomy was performed and hemostasis of liver lacerations, left nephrectomy and intercostal hernia repair left. We liberated the preperitoneal space and placed a polypropelenemesh of 5.9×5.9cm to close the hernia. We fixed it to the ribs with non-absorbable staples, and then we covered the mesh with a flap of peritoneum. Tension-free prosthetic repair today is the most recommended. Some studies suggest the use of glue to reduce the risk of intercostal neuralgia.

In the last two decades, the surgery of the abdominal wall has experienced an important development from being considered a matter of little interest for general surgeon, to having a greater presence at scientific meetings and to being increasingly prominent in the specialist training in surgery. In 1990 the plastic surgeon Oscar Ramirez published a method to repair defects in the abdominal wall that called “Component Separation Technique” thereafter general surgeons fixed his attention on the techniques of autoplastic repair of the abdominal wall that had already developed throughout the twentieth century. This interest grows with the emergence of new prosthesis and the use of laparoscopic surgery to repair eventrations since Le Blanc and Booth published in 1993. The development of techniques and materials encourages surgeons to repair large defects in the abdominal wall, using preoperative procedures to avoid complications arising from the return of viscera to a reduced abdominal cavity; it recovers the use of preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum and the muscular expanders; it applies the use of botulinum toxin in transverse abdominal muscles. Surgery of the large eventrations, however, is not free of complications such as skin necrosis which is treated by negative pressure therapy; it is necessary to control the intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and the development of techniques for the treatment of the open abdomen with subsequent progressive or delayed closure of the abdominal cavity. The complexity of surgical techniques and the knowledge of pre- and postoperative procedures to prevent and treat complications, in addition to the wide variety of prosthetic materials used, they justify the creation of abdominal wall surgery units in large hospitals, thus contributing to become an exciting topic for new generations.

Gastroenterology ,Surgery - Abstract
Introduccion y Objetivo Los defectos de pared abdominal y el cancer de prostata pueden aparecer de manera sincronica o metacronica. Procedemos a realizar una revision de la literatura para dilucidar: la conveniencia y seguridad de la cirugia combinada, la incidencia de hernias tras la cirugia prostatica y la viabilidad de la prostatectomia en pacientes con hernioplastia laparoscopica previa. Material y Metodo: Combinamos los mesh terms “ prostate neoplasm ” y “ abdominal hernia ” en la base de datos https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/ . Dos investigadores MRB y FCT revisan las 125 referencias bibliograficas y seleccionan aquellas series de casos con mas de 20 procedimientos asi como articulos de revision y revisiones sistematicas. Resultados y conclusiones: Hasta 24 trabajos (34,3%) describian o analizaban la viabilidad, los resultados y las complicaciones de una cirugia combinada, prostatectomia radical y herniorrafia o hernioplastia en un mismo acto quirurgico. Evaluados los resultados, la literatura avala la intervencion combinada en el mismo acto quirurgico a los pacientes que padecen una hernia inguinal y un cancer de prostata subsidiario de prostatectomia. Encontramos 25 estudios y un meta-analisis que abordan el potencial incremento de hernias inguinales tras prostatectomia radical. Aproximadamente un 15% de los pacientes a los que se les practica una prostatectomia radical retropubica clasica desarrollaran hernias inguinales; es posible que la incidencia sea menor en prostatectomias laparoscopicas y es factible que se acentue con el abordaje extraperitoneal. La mediana de tiempo a la aparicion de la hernia es de alrededor de 6 meses. Tras la evaluacion de 13 originales y 1 meta-analisis se concluye que la hernioplastia laparoscopica no imposibilita la prostatectomia pero dificulta la cirugia pelvica ulterior.

Gastroenterology ,Surgery - Abstract
Los schwannomas son tumores benignos que derivan de la vaina nerviosa. Son asintomáticos y se localizan habitualmente en cabeza, cuello y extremidades. Su localización en la pared abdominal es poco frecuente. Presentamos dos pacientes con schwannomas en el músculo recto anterior y en la musculatura lateral de la pared abdominal. El diagnóstico preoperatorio se hizo con pruebas de imagen y biopsia ecoguiada. Se intervino a los pacientes resecando completamente la lesión. En uno de los casos colocamos una malla intermuscular para reforzar la pared. Es importante un adecuado diagnóstico preoperatorio y plantear el diagnóstico diferencial con otras tumoraciones de la pared abdominal, benignas y malignas, que tienen distinto pronóstico y estrategia terapéutica. Para ello son útiles las pruebas de imagen y la biopsia preoperatoria. El tratamiento es la resección quirúrgica completa. Puede asociarse reconstrucción de la pared abdominal con una malla. El riesgo de recidiva o malignización es muy bajo.

A 62-year-old patient was studied after an episode of fainting with oppressive pain that appeared and recurred during exercise. Abdominal-pelvic CT revealed a heterogeneous retroperitoneal mass from the infrarenal distal third of the inferior vena cava (IVC) with calcifications that was highly vascularized, partially extraand endoluminal, with cranial extension up to the right auricle, that was implanted in the septum and up to the tricuspid valve to the RV (Figs. 1 and 2). Given the obstruction of the IVC and the existence of collateral venous return, and considering the differential diagnosis between leiomyosarcoma and angiosarcoma with associated thrombosis, surgery was performed and the IVC was resected in 2 stages using laparotomy and sternotomy. Final pathology diagnosis: high-grade leiomyosarcoma. c i r e s p . 2 0 1 3 ; 9 1 ( 3 ) : e 1 7

Introduction: Subxiphoid incisional hernia has characteristics that differentiate it from the rest and make it a distinctive entity. The fact that it has its sac very near the rib cage and sternum determines the pressure in the margins. The repair, by open or by laparoscopic approach, has not demonstrated good results despite the generalised use of a prosthesis. They are uncommon, and have a significant comorbidity in patients (severe heart diseases, transplants, immunosuppressed), after surgery of the hepato-bilio-pancreatic area with transverse incisions, or very high mid-laparotomies for gastro-oesophageal surgery. Material and methods: A new technique has been developed in our Unit, based on a double mesh and adapted to the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the region. The series consisted of 35 consecutive patients operated on between 2004 and 2010, following an agreed surgical and management protocol. Results: There were no significant complications−the most frequent (17.4%) was a seroma−except one case of a wound infection due to skin ischaemia in one patient who had had multiple operations and a transplant. During the post-surgical follow up to the present (between 4 and 80 months), there has been no recurrence of the incisional hernia and no significant local discomfort has been reported. Conclusions: The “adjusted double mesh” technique achieved good results in our hands, from the surgical point of view (reproducibility, recurrence), and for the patient, with minimal discomfort and recovery of quality of life..

Introduction Our goal is to show the surgical community a new technique developed by our team for treating complex and catastrophic ventral hernias: Separation of Anatomical Component (SAC) amended by Carbonell–Bonafe. Material and method A total of 100 patients with complex incisional hernias have been treated. The size, content and reducibility of ventral hernia (preoperative CT scan), recurrences and pre-closure techniques, height and weight, trophic skin alterations and need for preoperative pneumoperitoneum were all documented. The operation was performed following a standardised protocol; intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) was measured before, during and after the intervention. Patients were evaluated in the clinic at 15 and 30 days, monthly for 3 months, at sixth months and annually for up to 5 years. Results A total of 100 consecutive patients were operated on between January 2003 and May 2008. In the immediate post-surgical period there were 12% seromas, 8% of partialischaemia on the edges of the wound and 1 death due to multi-organ failure. In the later period, 6% had transitional pain in bone anchorage points. They resumed their normal activities after an average of 2 months, with great improvement in their quality of life. There have been no recurrences to date. Conclusions The SAC technique, as modified by our Unit, is an excellent resource in managing large ventral hernias: successfully closing with low morbidity, as well as reconstructing the biomechanics of the abdominal wall.

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of age in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for the treatment of acute cholecystitis by determining the benefits and postoperative complications in patients older than 65 years.Between January 2003 and March 2006, we performed 134 urgent LC for acute cholecystitis: 58 patients older than 65 years (group 1) were compared with 76 patients younger than 65 years (group 2). Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative variables were compared between groups 1 and 2. ASA score was used in the preoperative anesthetic evaluation.A total of 31.2% of patients in group 1 had high surgical risk (24% ASA III and 9.2% ASA IV). The conversion rate was 24.1% in group 1 versus 11.3% in group 2 (p = 0.04), due to difficulty in surgical dissection and advanced cholecystitis. The mean length of postoperative hospital stay was 4.7 +/- 3.2 days in group 1 versus 3.3 +/- 2.4 days in group 2 (p = 0.001). The overall rate of postoperative complications was 33.1% and 18.7% respectively, with a predominance of infectious complications.Although age should not be an exclusion factor for LC, the conversion rate, postoperative complications and length of hospital stay are increased in the elderly. Higher morbidity due to the underlying disease and longer disease duration with more advanced cholecystitis complicate the laparoscopic approach in these patients.

Resumen Un 10% de los feocromocitomas son bilaterales. Ademas el 10% es familiar y puede asociarse de forma mas frecuente con el sindrome MEN 2a o 2b, o bien con la enfermedad de Von Hippel-Lindau, la enfermedad de Von Recklinghausen y el sindrome de Sturge-Weber. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 18 anos con dos tumoraciones dependientes de ambas glandulas adrenales que se visualizan en una resonancia magnetica (RM). Se realiza una adrenalectomia bilateral, asi como un estudio genetico de la paciente, en el que se detecta una mutacion en el exon 3 del gen VHL. El estudio genetico de los progenitores fue negativo.
