- Acute appendicitis, inflammatory appendiceal mass and the risk of a hidden malignant tumor: a systematic review of the literature(2017) TEIXEIRA JR., Frederico Jose Ribeiro; COUTO NETTO, Sergio Dias do; AKAISHI, Eduardo Hiroshi; UTIYAMA, Edivaldo Massazo; MENEGOZZO, Carlos Augusto Metidieri; ROCHA, Marcelo CristianoIntroduction: Acute appendicitis is significantly common. Despite the increased use of computed tomography, the number of perforated cases has been stable in the past three decades. Between 2% and 6% of patients with acute appendicitis present appendiceal mass, often described as inflammatory phlegmon or abscess. Malignant tumors are confirmed by pathological analysis in 0.9-1.4% of all appendectomies performed to treat acute appendicitis. However, recent series demonstrate an elevated incidence of malignancies, ranging from 5.9 to 12%, in patients with inflammatory appendiceal mass. Methods: The analysis was based on a systematic review of the literature. The articles were searched in PubMed for the period from 1987 to 2016. Articles presenting the incidence of the hidden malignancy among patients with appendiceal inflammatory mass were selected. Variables as age, interval appendectomy rate, the incidence of neoplasm, time to surgery, minimally invasive assessment, histology, right colectomy rate and morbidity were analyzed. Results: A total of 13.244 patients were described as presenting acute appendicitis. Appendiceal tumor is present in approximately 1% of the appendectomies, while the rate of neoplasm varies from 10 to 29% in patients presenting appendiceal inflammatory mass. Interval appendectomies, despite been the minority of the procedures, disregard the higher morbidity associated with right sided colectomies. The review of literature also describes oncologic, histologic and clinical aspects of patients presenting appendiceal neoplasm, describing the most frequent histologic subtypes of this illness. Conclusion: Hidden appendiceal neoplasm in acute appendicitis are rare, fortunately. However, its incidence is much higher in patients presenting appendiceal inflammatory mass. Hence, interval appendectomy should be considered in this subgroup of patients.
- Multivisceral resection for retroperitoneal liposarcoma-is it worth it? A 20-year single-center experience(2023) JR, Frederico Ribeiro Teixeira; ARAKAKI, Mariana Sousa; LIMA, Helber Vidal Gadelha; FERREIRA, Fabio de Oliveira; MENEGOZZO, Carlos Augusto Metidieri; SILVA, Eduardo Rissi; MONTERO, Edna Frasson de Souza; OYA, Toshiko; LIMA, Luiz Calima; AKAISHI, Eduardo Hiroshi; UTIYAMA, Edivaldo MassazoPurposeSoft tissue sarcomas are rare malignant tumors. Liposarcoma constitutes the most frequent histological subtype of retroperitoneal sarcoma. The prognosis of soft tissue sarcomas depends on clinical and histologic characteristics.ObjectiveEvaluate variables that may be related to the overall and local recurrence-free survival in patients with retroperitoneal liposarcoma and discuss the need for visceral resection en-bloc for tumors.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted of the medical records of 60 patients seen between 1997 and 2017 who underwent surgical resection of retroperitoneal liposarcoma.ResultsThe overall survival rate at 5 years of follow-up was 75.22% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.58-0.86). The probability of a local recurrence-free survival at 5 years of follow-up was 26.04% (95% CI 0.11-0.44). The multivariate analysis showed that dedifferentiated or pleomorphic tumors and R2/fragmented resection were associated with a shorter time to recurrence. No other characteristics markedly influenced the overall survival (P > 0.05).ConclusionPatients with dedifferentiated or pleomorphic tumors and incomplete resection were associated with higher local recurrence rates than others. This study reinforces the need for complete and en-bloc resection with organs when there is clear involvement or technical surgical difficulty to maintain the tumor integrity.
- Abdominal wall reconstruction after desmoid type fibromatosis radical resection: Case series from a single institution and review of the literature(2017) NETO, S. D. Couto; TEIXEIRA JR., F.; MENEGOZZO, C. A. M.; ALBERTINI, A.; AKAISHI, E. H.; UTIYAMA, E. M.BACKGROUND: Abdominal wall desmoid type fibromatosis management has been changing over recent years, from an aggressive approach towards a more conservative one. When radical resection is indicated, the surgical team faces the challenge of abdominal wall reconstruction, for which optimal technique is still debated. The present study reports the experience from a single center with abdominal closures after desmoid type fibromatosis resection. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective analysis of patients who underwent abdominal wall closure after sporadic abdominal desmoid type fibromatosis radical resection from 1982 to 2013. RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients were included, mean tumor diameter was 10 + 5.3 cm, and the main choice of abdominal wall reconstruction was midline closure with anterior rectus sheath relaxing incisions and polypropylene onlay mesh (74% of the cases). Only 7% of the cases required more complex procedures for skin closure. Mean follow-up was 5 years and 89% remained disease-free. No grade 4 or 5 complications were observed. CONCLUSION: High midline fascial closure rate can be achieved after resection of abdominal wall desmoid tumor using relaxing incisions and mesh, with low complication rate. (C) 2017 The Author(s).
- Pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with type 1 Neurofibromatosis: Report of two cases and literature review(2016) TEIXEIRA, Frederic; MENEGOZZO, Carlos Augusto Metidieri; COUTO NETTO, Sergio Dias do; SCAPINI, Gustavo; AKAISHI, Eduardo Hiroshi; VASCONCELOS, Marcela Pereira Silva; UTIYAMA, Edivaldo MassazoINTRODUCTION: Type 1 Neurofibromatosis (NF1) is one of the most common autosomal dominantly inherited multisystem disorders. It is associated with an increased risk of developing neurologic and gastrointestinal (GI) malignant neoplasms. The incidence of GI involvement is reported in 10-25% of patients. Less than 5% of NF1 patients with GI neoplasms manifest symptoms. The presence of synchronic gastrointestinal stromal and neuroendocrine tumors is rare in these patients. PRESENTATION OF CASES: The first case is a 37 year-old male patient with a history of abdominal pain for a few months. Imaging study showed a periampullary mass and a solid lesion at the third duodenal portion. He was submitted to a pancreatoduodenectomy and histological anaylisis showed two low-grade neuroendocrine tumors and a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The second case is a 47 year-old female patient with a routine computed tomography scan showing a duodenal and a jejunal lesion. Duodenopancreatectomy was performed and histological analysis showed a neuroendocrine adenocarcinoma of the duodenum and two jejunal lesions compatible with GI tumors. DISCUSSION: GI symptoms such as jaundice, pain and bleeding in NF1 patients should prompt urgent admission Occasionally, associated gastrointestinal tumors may be incidentally found in asymptomatic NF1 patients. The presence of a periampullary or duodenal neoplasia such as neuroendocrine tumors should be evaluated. CONCLUSION: Although rare, the synchronic presentation of gastrointestinal tumors in patients with NF1 should be ruled out since it can lead to higher morbidity and mortality rates. Single-stage surgical management is feasable and yields satisfactory results. (C) 2016 The Authors.
- Sporadic Abdominal Wall Desmoid type Fibromatosis: treatment paradigm after thirty two years(2018) COUTO NETTO, S. D.; TEIXEIRA, F.; MENEGOZZO, C. A. M.; LEAO-FILHO, H. M.; ALBERTINI, A.; FERREIRA, F. O.; AKAISHI, E. H.; UTIYAMA, E. M.Background: Desmoid-type fibromatosis is a benign mesenchymal neoplastic process. It exhibits an uncertain growth pattern and high recurrence rate. Previously radical surgical resection was the mainstay of treatment but recently more surgeons are opting for conservative management with observation (""wait and see"" policy). The authors intend to evaluate different therapeutic modalities and ontological outcomes for abdominal wall desmoid tumors. Methods: We performed a retrospective study of patients who underwent surgical, hormonal or chemotherapy treatment for abdominal wall desmoid tumors between 1982 to 2014 at two institutions affiliated with the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Results: In the study period, 32 patients were included. Twenty-seven patients had surgery upfront. Of those, 89% were women with a median age of 33 years. Mean tumor size was 10 cm. Pathology confirmed free margins in 92% of resections. Tumor recurrence rate was 11%, with median relapse-free survival being 24 months. Multivariate analysis showed that positive final margins (p < 0.001) and positive frozen section (p = 0.001) were independent predictors of recurrence. For the 5 patients who underwent pharmacological therapy, median age was 33 years and median tumor diameter before treatment was 13 cm. Four patients exhibited partial response by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). The single patient who did not respond to RECIST underwent radiotherapy. Conclusion: Desmoid tumor treatment has been evolving over the past decade towards a more conservative approach. Pharmacological treatment may result in tumor size regression. When surgical excision is indicated, positive margins represent an important prognostic factor for local tumor recurrence.
