- Quantitative analysis of pulmonary perfusion with dual-energy CT angiography: comparison of two quantification methods in patients with pulmonary embolism(2023) LEE, Hye Ju; WANDERLEY, Mark; RUBIN, Vivian Cardinal da Silva; ALCALA, Glasiele Cristina; COSTA, Eduardo Leite Vieira; PARGA, Jose Rodrigues; AMATO, Marcelo Britto PassosThe study aimed to evaluate a quantification method of pulmonary perfusion with Dual-Energy CT Angiography (DE-CTA) normalized by lung density in the prediction of outcome in acute pulmonary embolism (PE). In this prospective study with CTA scans acquired with different breathing protocols, two perfusion parameters were calculated: %PBV (relative value of PBV, expressed per unit volume) and PBVm (PBV normalized by lung density, expressed per unit mass). DE-CTA parameters were correlated with simplified pulmonary embolism severity index (sPESI) and with outcome groups, alone and in combinationwith tomographic right-to-left ventricular ratios (RV/LV). PBVm showed significant correlation with sPESI. PBVm presented higher accuracy than %PBV In the prediction of ICU admission or death in patients with PE, with the best performance when combined with RV/LV volumetric ratio.
- Lobar pulmonary perfusion quantification with dual-energy CT angiography: Interlobar variability and relationship with regional clot burden in pulmonary embolism(2022) LEE, Hye Ju; WANDERLEY, Mark; RUBIN, Vivian Cardinal da Silva; RODRIGUES, Ana Clara Tude; DINIZ, Amanda Rocha; PARGA, Jose Rodrigues; AMATO, Marcelo Britto PassosPurpose: Semi-automated lobar segmentation tools enable an anatomical assessment of regional pulmonary perfusion with Dual-Energy CTA (DE-CTA). We aimed to quantify lobar pulmonary perfusion with DE-CTA, analyze the perfusion distribution among the pulmonary lobes in subjects without cardiopulmonary diseases and assess the correlation between lobar perfusion and regional endoluminal clots in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Methods: We evaluated 151 consecutive subjects with suspected PE and without cardiopulmonary comorbidities. DE-CTA derived perfused blood volume (PBV) of each pulmonary lobe was measured applying a semi-automated lobar segmentation technique. In patients with PE, blood clot location was assessed, and CT-based vascular obstruction index of each lobe (CTOIlobe) was calculated and classified into three groups: CTOIlobe= 0, low CTOIlobe (1-50%) and high CTOIlobe (>50%). Results: Among patients without PE (103/151, 68.2%), median lobar PBV was 13.7% (IQR 10.2-18.0%); the right middle lobe presented lower PBV when compared to all the other lobes (p < .001). In patients with PE (48/151, 31.8%), lobar PBV was 12.6% (IQR 9.6-15.7%), 13.7% (IQR 10.1-16.7%) and 6.5% (IQR 5.1-10.2%) in the lobes with CTOIlobe= 0, low CTOIlobe and high CTOIlobe scores, respectively, with a significantly decreased PBV in the lobes with high CTOIlobe score (p < .001). ROC analysis of lobar PBV for prediction of high CTOIlobe score revealed AUC of 0.847 (95%CI 0.785-0.908).
- Tomographic pleuropulmonary manifestations in rheumatoid arthritis: a pictorial essay(2023) BRIDI, Guilherme das Posses; SAWAMURA, Marcio Valente Yamada; WANDERLEY, Mark; SOUZA, Luciana Volpon Soares; KAIRALLA, Ronaldo Adib; KAWANO-DOURADO, Leticia; BALDI, Bruno GuedesRheumatoid arthritis ( RA) is an autoimmune inflammatory and heterogeneous disease that affects several systems, especially the joints. Among the extra- articular manifestations of RA, pleuropulmonary involvement occurs frequently, with different presentations, potentially in all anatomic thoracic compartments, and may determine high morbidity and mortality. The most common pleuropulmonary manifestations in patients with RA include interstitial lung disease (ILD), pleural disease, pulmonary arterial hypertension, rheumatoid lung nodules, airway disease (bronchiectasis and bronchiolitis), and lymphadenopathy. Pulmonary hypertension and ILD are the manifestations with the greatest negative impact in prognosis. HRCT of the chest is essential in the evaluation of patients with RA with respiratory symptoms, especially those with higher risk factors for ILD, such as male gender, smoking, older age, high levels of rheumatoid factor, or positive anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody results. Additionally, other etiologies that may determine tomographic pleuropulmonary manifestations in patients with RA are infections, neoplasms, and drug-induced lung disease. In these scenarios, clinical presentation is heterogeneous, varying from being asymptomatic to having progressive respiratory failure. Knowledge on the potential etiologies causing tomographic pleuropulmonary manifestations in patients with RA coupled with proper clinical reasoning is crucial to diagnose and treat these patients.
- Pop in a scope: attempt to decrease the rate of unnecessary nontherapeutic laparotomies in hemodynamically stable patients with thoracoabdominal penetrating injuries(2020) MENEGOZZO, Carlos Augusto M.; DAMOUS, Sergio H. B.; ALVES, Pedro Henrique F.; ROCHA, Marcelo C.; SILVA, Francisco S. Collet e; BARAVIERA, Thiago; WANDERLEY, Mark; SAVERIO, Salomone Di; UTIYAMA, Edivaldo M.Background Management of patients with thoracoabdominal penetrating injuries is challenging. Thoracoabdominal penetrating trauma may harbor hollow viscus injuries in both thoracic and abdominal cavities and occult diaphragmatic lesions. While radiological tests show poor diagnostic performance in these situations, evaluation by laparoscopy is highly sensitive and specific. Furthermore, minimally invasive surgery may avoid unnecessary laparotomies, despite concerns regarding complication and missed injury rates. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the diagnostic and therapeutic performance of laparoscopy in stable patients with thoracoabdominal penetrating injuries. Methods Retrospective analysis of hemodynamically stable patients with thoracoabdominal penetrating wounds was managed by laparoscopy. We collected data regarding the profile of the patients, the presence of diaphragmatic injury, perioperative complications, and the conversion rate. Preoperative imaging tests were compared to laparoscopy in terms of diagnostic accuracy. Results Thirty-one patients were included, and 26 (84%) were victims of a stab wound. Mean age was 32 years. Ninety-three percent were male. Diaphragmatic lesions were present in 18 patients (58%), and 13 (42%) had associated injuries. There were no missed injuries and no conversions. Radiography and computerized tomography yielded an accuracy of 52% and 75%, respectively. Conclusion Laparoscopy is a safe diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in stable patients with thoracoabdominal penetrating wound, with low complication rate, and may avoid unnecessary laparotomies. The poor diagnostic performance of preoperative imaging exams supports routine laparoscopic evaluation of the diaphragm to exclude injuries in these patients.
- Natural history of incidental sporadic and tuberous sclerosis complex associated lymphangioleiomyomatosis(2020) MARCO, Fabiano Di; TERRANEO, Silvia; DIAS, Olivia Meira; IMERI, Gianluca; CENTANNI, Stefano; RINALDO, Rocco Francesco; GIULIANI, Lisa; LESMA, Elena; PALUMBO, Giuseppina; WANDERLEY, Mark; CARVALHO, Carlos Roberto Ribeiro; BALDI, Bruno GuedesLymphangioleiomyiomatosis (LAM) is a rare disease affecting women in childbearing age. A sporadic form (SLAM) affecting previously healthy women, and a form associated with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC-LAM) are described. Some data suggested that TSC-LAM could be a milder disease compared to S-LAM. To investigate whether the different disease behavior is real or due to overdiagnosis of screened TSC women, we compared the natural history of S-LAM and TSC-LAM in patients with incidental diagnosis. Clinical, and functional data from 52 patients (23 with S-LAM and 29 with TSC-LAM) were analysed. At diagnosis functional impairment was mild without differences between groups [FEV1 % pred was 97% (88-105) and 94% (82-106) in TSC-LAM and S-LAM, respectively, p = 0.125]. Patients with S-LAM had less renal angiomyolipoma, and lower VEGF-D serum levels than TSC-LAM. There was no difference in the baseline extent of pulmonary cysts on CT scan and no difference in yearly rate of functional decline between TSC-LAM, and S-LAM patients [e.g. yearly rate of decline of FEV1 % pred was 0.51 (1.59 2.24) and 0.90 (1.92 -0.42) in TSC-LAM and S-LAM, respectively, p = 0.265]. In conclusion, the natural history of TSC-LAM and S-LAM, when a potential selection bias due to screening in the latter group is balanced, is similar. Our study suggests that the prevalence of S-LAM can be significantly underestimated due to a tendency to diagnosis more frequently patients with more severe impairment, without identifying several ones with asymptomatic disease.
