[Treatment of giant vulvar condylomata acuminata combining CO2 laser and electrosurgery].

Since no antiviral treatment exists for human papilloma viruses (HPV), the clinician's role is to treat all detectable lesions in order to help the patient's immune system fight the virus and to prevent transmission by contact with lesions. HPV-associated lesions have been treated by a wide range of modalities, which may be divided into chemical, surgical and immunity-stimulating methods. We treated patients with large vulva lesions with Electrosurgery in combination with laser CO2 vaporization. HPV-associated lesions have been treated by a wide range of modalities, which may be divided into chemical, surgical and immunity-stimulating methods.

[Inhaled nitric oxide in the treatment of persistent pulmonary hypertension in a newborn].

OBJECTIVE: Our aim was to assess from a clinical and analytical point of view the response to inhaled nitric oxide in patients with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective study was analyzed in ten patients with PPHN who received inhaled nitric oxide. The ventilatory and gasometric data were reviewed before treatment, during the first hours and afterwards, in all patients, in the surviving group and in the most common associated disease group (intrauterine pneumonia). The parameters analyzed to assess the response to NO treatment were the oxygenation index (IO) and the PaO2 increase. Statistical analysis was performed by using a comparison of means. RESULTS: The mean oxygenation index before starting the treatment with inhaled NO was 39 +/- 7.3 in the total group and 38.4 +/- 8.8 in the surviving patients. At 2.9 +/- 1.1 hours after treatment a mild improvement was observed in the total group and it was more evident in the surviving group (32.4 +/- 15.2 and 26.4 +/- 7.8, respectively; p < 0.05). After treatment was discontinued, the IO was 24.7 +/- 21.9 (p < 0.05) and 12.8 +/- 7.5 (p < 0.001). The PaO2 increment in both groups was 51.2 +/- 55.5% and 66.8% +/- 28.1%. The patients with intrauterine pneumonia showed the highest PaO2 increase after treatment was discontinued (78.3% +/- 41.9%). CONCLUSIONS: Early treatment with inhaled NO in term newborns with PPHN produced a sustained improvement in oxygenation. This treatment might reduce the number of patients who need extracorporal membrane oxygenation.

[Uterine sarcoma. Analytic study of 37 cases].

The lack of uniformity in the nomenclature of the uterine sarcomas, it have contributed to a variety and variability of classifications. Fortunately the sarcomas of uterus are rare. The incidence of this tumor is of 3-5% of all the uterine cancers or of 1.7/100,000 women of 20 years or more. The clinical presentation of these tumors is diverse could come bleed uterine abnormal, abdominal pain, pelvic mass, discharge or cervix prominent mass. Clinical discoveries associated with exist the sarcomas how they are the obesity and high blood pressure in a 30% of the patients it are also observed antecedents of pelvic radiation in a 5-10% of the cases. The genomic alterations that is reported the chromosomes in the literature is associated with 1, 7 11 playing an important paper in the initiation or progression of the sarcomas. We was carried out a retrospective analysis of 37 cases of uterine sarcoma managed in the National Institute of Cancerology at one time of 5 years. Being that the leiomiosarcomas comes in the 51.3% of the cases, followed by the stromal sarcoma, bleed uterine abnormal it was the clinical fact of high importance, detecting these patients in Ia and IIa stadiums predominantly. We observed an increment in the incidence of the uterine sarcoma in patients of 40 years or more. 17 patients were managed exclusively with surgery, 17 patients with surgery and radiotherapy and 5 patients with surgery and chemotherapy (2 patients were managed with surgery + radiotherapy + chemotherapy). The index of failure was from the 45.1% to two years in general form, coming metastasic illness in lung, liver and breast mainly. In conclusion, the adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy to the hysterectomy doesn't increase the index of survivor in the several subtype of uterine sarcomas.

[Colposuspension of the sacrospinal ligament].

During a period of 15 years, at the Hospital Central Militar, 36 operations were done to fix the vaginal cupule to sacrocyatic ligament, as therapeutic or preventive surgery; most of the fixations were together with vaginal hysterectomy by genital prolapse; and six of them were as surgical therapy of vaginal cupule prolapse. Complications were in 2.8% (one case), recidive of cupule prolapse and in 2.8% pudendal vein lesion. Long term result has been excellent, with minimal morbidity.

[Cytologic-colposcopic-histopathologic correlations in preinvasive cervical lesions and cervical Human Papillomavirus infections].

Cervico-uterine cancer is the most frequent gynecological neoplasia in Mexico and cervico-vaginal cytology is the most practical and dependable resource in lesions detection. During the last years precursory lesions detection (NIC and HPV infection) has increased. So, every patient presenting with an abnormal cytology should be included in an evaluation program, that includes a colposcopic study with biopsy of suspicious lesions, in order to know cellular abnormality degree, as these studies combination increases diagnosis certainty. Ninety three patients were evaluated by colposcopy, as the Papanicolaou showed abnormality ICN type in any degree or HPV infection data, during the first three years of the Unidad de Colposcopia de la Beneficiencia del Hospital ABC. In 49 patients histopathological study, was done. A correlation of all studies was carried out. There was a correlation cytology-histopathology of 59.18%; and colposcopy-histopathology of 89.79%. It was concluded that evaluation by cytology is insufficient to establish a final diagnosis and treatment, and that colposcopic study is fundamental in the evaluation of the patient with abnormal exfoliative cytology.

[The search for, detection and control of the human papillomavirus (HPV)].

The research, detection and control of the human virus of papilloma has called the investigators attention because of the verification of its direct participation as a cofactor in the origin of premalign and malign lesions in the genital organs. This is the objective of the present bibliographic reviewing in which we are trying to move gynecologists to establish a management protocol in the external consultation, so that it will become possible to decrease the highest index of female morbimortality produce by this suffering and that now a days continues to be the first death rate cause by cancer, in Mexico.

[Epidemiology of abortion. A one-year prospective study].

This study evaluates the epidemiological characteristics of patients attended at the Hospital Central Militar (Service of Obstetrics), who had diagnosis of abortion. The study was prospective and was conducted through one year. There were 316 cases of abortion (12.4%) among 2,550 obstetrical patients. The most frequent type of abortion was the incomplete one (58.6%). Only 38 (12.0%) women had an septic abortion. From an epidemiological point of view, patients with abortion were young (mean age 26.45 +/- 6.49 years); married (87.4%); with mean parity of 2.20 +/- 2.16; 26.3% of them had their first pregnancy and 78.2% had their first abortion. Abortion were more frequent between 9 and 12 weeks of pregnancy. After the 10th week, the D&C had more complications than before. The conclusion from this study is that in this group of population, abortion is not an important problem of health.

[The results of a selective program to detect intraepithelial neoplasms of the vulva].

Early detection and treatment of preinvasive neoplasias decrease the incidence and mortality of the subsequent invasive cancers. This paper presents the results of a selective program to detect vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN). The program was selective because only "relative high risk" women were included, i.e. women with one or more of the following items: a) age more than 50 years; b) past history of epidermoid cervical or vaginal cancer (included intraepithelial stages); c) past history of genital radiation; d) past or actual history of genital condyloma; and e) past or actual history of hyperplasic or mixed vulvar dystrophy. Detection was made with the test described by Collins et al., staining the vulva with a toluidine blue aqueous solution and decoloring it with acetic acid. All positive sites (areas retaining the blue color) were biopsied under local anesthesia. Histopathology diagnosis served as gold standard for the program's evaluation. Patient with negative tests and those with NIV I were rescreened each 6 months. From March 1984 to September 1986, 212 patients were admitted in this program and 318 tests were performed. Individual tests varied from 1 (105 patients) to 5 (3 patients). The group was followed-up until March 1989, when the program was evaluated. There were 77 positive tests, among them 21 cases of NIV. Three women with NIV I progressed to NIV II during the observation period. NIV cases were classified as: NIV I, 7 cases (33.3%); NIV II, 10 cases (47.7%); and NIV III, 4 cases (19.0%).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
