- Effects of Prostatic Artery Embolization on the Dynamic Component of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia as Assessed by Ultrasound Elastography: A Pilot Series(2019) ASSIS, Andre Moreira de; MOREIRA, Airton Mota; CARNEVALE, Francisco Cesar; MARCELINO, Antonio Sergio Zafred; CERRI, Luciana Mendes de Oliveira; ANTUNES, Alberto Azoubel; SROUGI, Miguel; CERRI, Giovanni GuidoPurposeTo determine the effects of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) on prostaticelasticity as assessed by Ultrasound Elastography (US-E), as well as to describe the feasibility and role of US-E as a novel tool in both pre- and post-PAE evaluation.Materials and MethodsThis is a prospective, single-center investigation that included eight patients undergoing PAE for treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) attributed to benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Baseline and 3-month follow-up evaluations were performed and included prostate-specific antigen (PSA), uroflowmetry, pelvic magnetic resonance imaging and clinical assessment using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire and the IPSS-Quality of life (QoL) item. US-E with measurement of the prostatic Elastic Modulus (EM) was performed before PAE and at 1-month follow-up.ResultsAfter PAE, US-E showed a significant reduction of prostatic EM as assessed in kPa (33.14 vs. 47.24, -29.8%, p=0.002) and in m/s (3.75 vs. 4.63, -19.0%, p<0.001). Also, the transitional/peripheral zone ratio was significantly reduced by 45.36% (0.53 vs. 0.97, p<0.05). All eight patients presented with significant LUTS improvement after PAE (p<0.05 for IPSS, QoL, prostate volume, peak urinary flow rate and PSA).ConclusionsFindings described in this study suggest that PAE significantly reduces prostaticEM, leading to a positive effect on BPH dynamic component related to prostatic elasticity. Also, it features US-E as an additional tool for pre- and post-PAE evaluation, describing a novel indication for this technology.

G.; BUCHPIGUEL, C.- Infusion of Recombinant Human Tissue Plasminogen Activator Through the Superior Mesenteric Artery in the Treatment of Acute Mesenteric Venous Thrombosis(2011) LEAL FILHO, Joaquim Mauricio da Motta; SANTOS, Aline Cristine Barbosa; CARNEVALE, Francisco Cesar; SOUSA JR., Wilson de Oliveira; GRILLO JR., Luiz Sergio Pereira; CERRI, Giovanni GuidoAcute mesenteric venous thrombosis is an uncommon condition that is usually treated with systemic anticoagulation. Catheter-directed thrombolysis through the superior mesenteric artery may be a viable adjunct to treat this morbid condition. In the present article, we have described a case of superior mesenteric venous thrombosis treated with catheter-directed infusion of tissue plasminogen activator through the superior mesenteric artery.
- Quality of Life and Clinical Symptom Improvement Support Prostatic Artery Embolization for Patients with Acute Urinary Retention Caused by Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia(2013) CARNEVALE, Francisco C.; MOTTA-LEAL-FILHO, Joaquim M. da; ANTUNES, Alberto A.; BARONI, Ronaldo H.; MARCELINO, Antonio S. Z.; CERRI, Luciana M. O.; YOSHINAGA, Eduardo M.; CERRI, Giovanni G.; SROUGI, MiguelPurpose: To show that prostatic artery embolization (PAE) improves quality of life (QoL) and lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with acute urinary retention caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Materials and Methods: This was a single-center prospective study of PAE in 11 patients with BPH managed With indwelling. urinary catheters. International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), ultrasound, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, QoL, and urodynamic tests were used. to assess outcomes. Prostate size ranged from 30 to 90 g, and embolizations were performed with 300-500-mu m Embosphere microspheres. Results: The rate of technical success (ie, bilateral PAE) was 75%, and the rate of clinical success (ie, catheter removal and symptom improvement) was 91% (10 of 11 patients). Postembolization syndrome manifested as mild pain in the perineum, retropubic area, and/or urethra. Ten of 11 patients urinated spontaneously after Foley catheter removal 4-25 days after PAE (mean, 12.1 d). No major complications Were observed. Follow-up ranged from 19 to 48 months. than asymptomatic patient, a discrete area of hypoperfusion: suggesting small ischemia of the bladder was observed on 30-day MR imaging follow-up, but the bladder was normal on 90-day MR imaging. After 1 year, mean prostate volume reduction was greater than 30%, symptoms were mild (mean IPSS, 2.8 +/- 2.1; P = .04),. no erectile dysfunction was observed, and QoL,improved significantly (mean , 0.4 +/- 0.5; P = .001) using the paired t test. Conclusions: Patients with severe symptoms and acute urinary retention caused by BPH can be treated Safely by PAE, which improves clinical symptoms and QoL.

Within the last 15 years, cancer has gone from the third- to the second-leading cause of death in the State of Sao Paulo and has shown a gradual increase in the number of new cases; it has thus become a relevant issue for public health and health management. The model adopted by the State for the organization of the cancer care network was the motivation for this study, which aimed to evaluate the evolution of the model of care for cancer patients within the Unified Health System (Sistema Unico de Saude) based on the integrated care model. Since 1993, the year that cancer was first considered highly complex in the Sistema Unico de Saude by the Ministry of Health, it has been possible to observe a progressive orientation towards the integral and integrated care of patients with cancer. In the State of Sao Paulo, the active participation of qualified service providers through a Technical Reference Committee showed that experts could contribute to the definition of public policies, thereby providing a technical base for decision making and contributing to the development of clinical management.
- Color Duplex Doppler US can Follow up the Response of Radioiodine in Graves' Disease by Evaluating the Thyroid Volume and Peak Systolic Velocity(2020) SANTOS, Thiago Adler Ralho Rodrigues; MARUI, Suemi; WATANABE, Tomoco; LIMA, Nicolau; OZAKI, Claudia Okanobo; CERRI, Giovanni Guido; CHAMMAS, Maria C.Purpose The objective of this study was to prove the efficacy of Doppler ultrasonography (US-Doppler) in the follow-up of patients with GD treated with radioactive iodine. Methods 97 patients (77 female and 20 male) with a mean age of 42 years (SD +/- 15) and with prior diagnosis of GD were treated with radioiodine. In total, 88.5 % achieved euthyroidism or hypothyroidism after treatment. The study was documented before treatment and one, three, and six months after treatment with radioactive iodine (131I) by a single investigator. The volume, echogenicity, echotexture and vascularization of the glands as well as the peak systolic velocity (PSV) of the inferior thyroid arteries were evaluated and compared with the laboratory data. Results Thyroid volume and PSV had a statistically significant correlation with hormone levels (p < 0.05). The mean pre-dose therapeutic thyroid volume was 43.01 +/- 3.88 cm(3) and was 11.58 +/- 11.26 cm(3) 6 months after treatment. The mean PSV before 131I was 90.06 +/- 44.13 cm/s and decreased significantly over time (p < 0.001). Six months after the therapeutic dose, the mean PSV was 32.95 +/- 16.36 cm/s. However, the subjective parameters did not have a significant correlation with the normalization of the thyroid hormones. Conclusion Doppler US was useful for monitoring the therapeutic response of GD patients after treatment with radioiodine by evaluating the thyroid volume and peak systolic velocity.
bookPart Breve histórico cronológico da Residência Médica em Radiologia(2019) GOMES, Regina Lúcia Elia; CERRI, Giovanni Guido; ROCHA, Manoel de Souza- Revisiting Prostate Cancer Recurrence with PSMA PET: Atlas of Typical and Atypical Patterns of Spread(2019) BARBOSA, Felipe G.; QUEIROZ, Marcelo A.; NUNES, Rafael F.; VIANA, Publio C. C.; MARIN, Jose Flavio G.; CERRI, Giovanni G.; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos A.The introduction of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) in clinical practice has revolutionized evaluation of biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after curative-intent treatment. The high expression of this glycoprotein in prostate cancer cells makes PSMA imaging superior to the current conventional staging methods, namely bone scanning and CT. The high capability of PSMA imaging for identifying very small previously undetected lesions has been widely demonstrated in the literature, leading to a rethinking of patient management by oncologists, urologists, and radiation oncologists. The typical and predictable patterns of spread in prostate cancer are still more prevalent, such as spread to pelvic lymph nodes and bone metastasis, but different patterns of disease spread are becoming more commonly recognized with higher reliability because PSMA imaging allows detection of more typical and atypical lesions than conventional imaging. Furthermore, it is important for the reading physician to recognize and understand the typical disease spread and the most prevalent atypical prostate cancer relapses, not only to heighten the relevancy of reports but also to improve imaging consultancy in multispecialty oncologic practice.

- Radiomic analysis of MRI to Predict Sustained Complete Response after Radiofrequency Ablation in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma - A Pilot Study(2021) HORVAT, Natally; ARAUJO-FILHO, Jose De Arimateia B.; ASSUNCAO-JR, Antonildes N.; MACHADO, Felipe Augusto de M.; SIMS, John A.; ROCHA, Camila Carlos Tavares; OLIVEIRA, Brunna Clemente; HORVAT, Joao Vicente; MACCALI, Claudia; PUGA, Anna Luisa Boschiroli Lamanna; CHAGAS, Aline Lopes; MENEZES, Marcos Roberto; CERRI, Giovanni GuidoOBJECTIVES: To investigate whether quantitative textural features, extracted from pretreatment MRI, can predict sustained complete response to radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: In this IRB-approved study, patients were selected from a maintained six-year database of consecutive patients who underwent both pretreatment MRI imaging with a probable or definitive imaging diagnosis of HCC (LI-RADS 4 or 5) and loco-regional treatment with RFA. An experienced radiologist manually segmented the hepatic nodules in MRI arterial and equilibrium phases to obtain the volume of interest (VOI) for extraction of 107 quantitative textural features, including shape and first- and second-order features. Statistical analysis was performed to evaluate associations between textural features and complete response. RESULTS: The study consisted of 34 patients with 51 treated hepatic nodules. Sustained complete response was achieved by 6 patients (4 with single nodule and 2 with multiple nodules). Of the 107 features from the arterial and equilibrium phases, 20 (18%) and 25 (23%) achieved AUC >0.7, respectively. The three best performing features were found in the equilibrium phase: Dependence Non-Uniformity Normalized and Dependence Variance (both GLDM class, with AUC of 0.78 and 0.76, respectively) and Maximum Probability (GLCM class, AUC of 0.76). CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study demonstrates that a radiomic analysis of pre-treatment MRI might be useful in identifying patients with HCC who are most likely to have a sustained complete response to RFA. Second-order features (GLDM and GLCM) extracted from equilibrium phase obtained highest discriminatory performance.
