Reconstruction of Lower Eyelid in Basal Cell Carcinoma Case with Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: A Case Report

2024-03-25T20:51:59+08:00

Abstract: Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are the most common cancers in humans, caused by exposure to ultraviolet light and are associated with PTCH1 gene mutation. Its incidence rate significantly increases per year especially in elderly people. Several modalities are available for BCC treatment but surgery is still considered as the gold standard. Oxygen is mandatory for almost all wound healing processes, and oxygen substitution can be delivered in the form of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy. We presented a 70 years old woman with a major complaint of a tumor located in the left infrapalpebral region, below the left lower lash line with 5 years of evolution. Patient had clinical presentation of solid nodular basal cell carcinoma which was the most common clinical subtype. Patient was diagnosed as having BCC based on history taking, clinical findings, and histopathological examination. Surgical wide excision, skin flap, and HBO as the adjunctive therapy were performed on this patient. With these techniques, healing time was reduced, complications rates were low, and cosmetic outcome was much better. In conclusion, closing defects of BCC case with surgical wide excision and flap yields a remarkable outcome and an adjunctive HBO therapy after surgery optimizes the oxygenation, thus, the healing potential of tissue prior to surgery, and accelerates wound healing post operatively. A good result with short healing duration was observed.

2024-03-04T20:25:09+08:00

Abstract: Dengue infection remains as a significant global health issue due to its rapid spread and increasing number of cases each year. Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and its severity, dengue shock syndrome (DSS), can be caused by various factors, namely the host, behavior, environment, vectors, health services, and agents. This study aimed to determine the factors that influenced the trend of incidence and severity of DHF at Prof. R. D. Kandou Hospital, Manado. This was a descriptive and analytical study with a cross sectional design. The statistical analysis showed a significant correlation with a negative direction between air temperature and DHF incidence rate (p = 0.029, r = -0.363). Air humidity and rainfall did not have a significant relationship with DHF incidence. Based on the place of residence, a significant association was found with the severity of DHF (p=<0.001, OR=234.103). No significant association was found between economic level and the severity of the disease. In conclusion, there are significant relationships between air temperature and the incidence of DHF, and between the place of residence and the severity of the disease. It is expected that the government and the community can include these factors as indicators in efforts to prevent and control DHF and its severity.

Impact of Calorie Intake on Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors for Young Adults Working from Home During the COVID-19 Pandemic

2024-03-14T21:03:55+08:00

Abstract: During the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home (WFH) led to increased passivity, potentially affecting body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and blood pressure (BP) values, which are risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aimed to determine the impact of calorie intake on these risk factors in young adults working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic. This experimental study employed a one-group pre- and post-test design conducted over two months. Respondents' daily physical activities were recorded using Bouchard's questionnaire, and a food record method was used to document all foods consumed over three days. The study followed up with respondents for two months. The results indicated that respondents with good physical activity levels experienced a decrease in BMI: 53.3% of men and 37.5% of women. Adequate calorie intake also contributed to a decrease in BMI, with 53.3% of men and 57.1% of women showing reductions. However, the t-test showed p-values >0.05 for the correlations between calorie intake and BMI, WC, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). In conclusion, there was no significant impact of calorie intake on risk factors for CVD, such as obesity and high blood pressure. Nonetheless, it was observed that appropriate calorie intake could potentially prevent the increase of these risk factors.

Torsades de Pointes Akibat Bradikardia

2024-03-04T23:54:29+08:00

Abstract: Torsades de pointes (TdP) is a fatal tachyarrhythmia that has the potential to degenerate into ventricular fibrillation. The occurrence of TdP is associated with prolongation of the QT interval on the electrocardiogram (ECG), which is often found in bradycardia patients. We reported an 86-year-old female who experienced recurrent fainting episodes in the past month. From the ECG we recorded sinus rhythm was bradycardia with a heart rate of 43 bpm with a high degree of atrioventricular block, with a prolongation of the QT interval reaching 640 milliseconds. The patient was not taking any medications known to have the effect of prolonging the QT interval. The patient underwent a series of examination. Blood and electrolyte tests were within normal limit. Echocardiography examination showed good heart pump function and no structural abnormalities were found. The 24-hour Holter examination recorded a TdP rhythm with a heart rate of 180 bpm which was spontaneos termination. The patient underwent a permanent dual chamber pacemaker implantation. At post-insertion follow-up, the patient never experienced another fainting episode. In conclusion, bradycardia on ECG is known to prolong the QT interval thereby predisposing to torsades de pointes. Implantation of a permanent pacemaker was done and was successful in treating bradycardia, shortening the QT interval thereby suppressing the occurrence of torsades de pointes.

Abstrak: Torsades de pointes (TdP) merupakan takiaritmia fatal yang berpotensi berdegenerasi menjadi fibrilasi ventrikel. Kejadian TdP dikaitkan dengan pemanjangan interval QT pada elektrokardiogram (EKG), yang seringkali dijumpai pada pasien bradikardia. Kami melaporkan kasus seorang pasien wanita berusia 86 tahun yang mengalami episode pingsan berulang dalam satu bulan terakhir. Dari gambaran EKG didapatkan irama sinus bradikardia dengan laju jantung 43x per menit dengan blok atrioventrikular derajat tinggi, dengan pemanjangan interval QT mencapai 640 milidetik. Pasien tidak mengonsumsi obat-obatan yang diketahui memiliki efek memperpanjang interval QT. Pasien menjalani serangkaian penunjang. Pemeriksaan darah dan elektrolit hasilnya normal. Pemeriksaan ekokardiografi menunjukkan fungsi pompa jantung baik dan tidak ditemukan adanya abnormalitas struktur jantung. Pemeriksaan Holter 24 jam berhasil merekam irama TdP dengan laju jantung 180x per menit yang mengalami terminasi spontan. Pada pasien dilakukan pemasangan alat pacu jantung permanen dual chamber. Pada follow up paska pemasangan, pasien tidak pernah mengalami episode pingsan lagi. Simpulan kasus ini ialah bradikardia pada elektrokardiogram diketahui memperpanjang interval QT sehingga memredisposisi terjadinya TdP. Pemasangan alat pacu jantung permanen pada pasien dipilih sebagai langkah tatalaksana, dan terbukti berhasil mengatasi bradikardia, memperpendek interval QT sehingga mensupresi terjadinya torsades de pointes.

Outcomes of Endovascular Intervention for Salvage of Failing Hemodialysis Access

2024-06-09T13:04:36+08:00

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide public health problem. Hemodialysis accesses are prone to failure due to thrombosis and stenosis over the anastomosis or outflow vein. This study aimed to obtain the outcomes of endovascular intervention for salvage of failing hemodialysis access. This was a retrospective and descriptibe study. Data were collected from all patients who underwent endovascular intervention for failing hemodialysis access starting from January 2021 – June 2023 at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital, Manado. The results showed that 136 subjects were included in this study. The highest comorbidities were found in patients with a history of hypertension (52.9%). The most common arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) hemodialysis access was at the brachiocephalic location (75.7%). The most frequent cause of access dysfunction was simple stenosis (64.7%). Pseudoaneurysm was occurred in two subjects (1.4%), and ruptured outflow vein was occurred in one subject (0.7%). The patency rate at three months was 77.6%, but the primary patency rate would decrease to less than 50% over six months. Endovascular intervention in the form of balloon angioplasty is currently the main line of choice in dealing with problematic AVFs in principle what is being done is to intraluminaly dilate the narrowed or blocked lumen of the outflow vein. The complication rate from the procedure performed was 2.2% where in two patients a pseudoaneurysm occurred at the puncture site, namely the brachial artery and the radial artery then another patient had rupture of the AVFs outflow vein, therefore, an additional procedure was performed to close the AVFs with ligation. In conclusion, endovascular intervention for failing hemodialysis access has good results, but the primary patency rate will decrease to less than 50% over six months.

Cangkok Aurikular Kondrokutaneus Komposit sebagai Alternatif untuk Rekonstruksi Defek Dorsum Nasal dengan Ketebalan Penuh Ketika Septal Hinge Flap Tidak Tersedia: Laporan Kasus

2024-05-09T03:27:00+08:00

Abstract: Nose is an important structure of the face because it is centrally located and prominent, however, it is also weak and vulnerable to trauma. Nasal trauma, if not treated properly, can lead to functional and esthetic deformities. A full-thickness defect in dorsum nasal and septal area, caused by a traffic accident, can present a challenging reconstruction scenario. We present a case of a 21-year-old male with full-thickness defect in the dorsum nasal and septal area due to a traffic accident. The septal hinge flap is a common option for cartilage and lining reconstruction, but it may not always be available. Considering the complexity of the defect, we decided to perform a reconstruction using an auricular chondrocutaneous graft. A series of post-operative follow-ups were carried out from two months to four months postoperatively to evaluate in depth the function and aesthetic aspects of the patient. The results of the evaluation conducted showed that the patient had achieved a high level of satisfaction related to the restoration of his function and aesthetic appearance. This evaluation was essential to ensure that the interventions carried out had been functionally and aesthetically successful.

Abstrak: Hidung merupakan struktur penting pada wajah karena letaknya di tengah dan menonjol, namun, struktur ini juga lemah dan rentan terhadap trauma. Trauma hidung, jika tidak ditangani dengan baik, dapat menyebabkan kelainan bentuk baik fungsional maupun estetika. Defek dengan hilangnya ketebalan penuh pada area dorsum hidung dan septum, yang disebabkan oleh kecelakaan lalu lintas, dapat menghadirkan skenario rekonstruksi yang menyulitkan. Kami menyajikan laporan kasus seorang laki-laki berusia 21 tahun dengan defek ketebalan penuh pada area dorsum nasal dan septum akibat kecelakaan lalu lintas. Septal hinge flap ialah pilihan umum untuk rekonstruksi tulang rawan dan lapisannya, tetapi mungkin tidak selalu tersedia. Dengan mempertimbangkan kompleksitas defek tersebut, diputuskan untuk melakukan rekonstruksi menggunakan cangkok aurikular kondrokutaneus. Serangkaian tindak lanjut pasca-operasi dilakukan sejak dua bulan hingga empat bulan pasca operasi untuk mengevaluasi secara mendalam aspek fungsi serta estetik pada pasien. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa pasien telah mencapai tingkat kepuasan tinggi terkait dengan pemulihan fungsi dan penampilan estetiknya. Evaluasi ini sangat penting untuk memastikan bahwa intervensi yang dilakukan telah berhasil secara fungsional dan estetis.

Relation of Pre-operative Ureteral Catheter Use and Complications of Intraoperative Ureteral and Bladder Trauma in Gynecologic Oncology Patients Undergoing Major Surgical Procedures

2024-06-27T22:24:14+08:00

Iatrogenic injury to the urinary tract is a potential complication of all surgical procedures performed in or retroperitoneum and pelvis. Gynecological surgery in particular has a risk of urinary tract injury due to the close anatomy of the urinary tract and the reproductive system in women. This study aimed to evaluate the relation between pre-operative ureteral catheter use and complications of intraoperative ureteral and bladder trauma in gynaecologic oncology patients undergoing major surgical procedures. This study used cohort data of patients undergoing major surgical procedures at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital, Manado, recorded in medical records from January 1, 2023 to June 30, 2023. The bivariate test showed that patients who received pre-operative ureteral catheter insertion had fewer urological trauma events (4.5%) compared to patients who did not get pre-operative ureteral catheter (95.5%). The relations between pre-operative ureteral catheters and the incidence of urological trauma was found to be statistically significant with a p-value of 0.019 and the history of chemotherapy had a p-value of 0.036, meanwhile the relations with other variables showed p-values of >0.05. Therefore, the use of pre-operative catheters could not significantly eliminate the occurrence of ureteral trauma because many of the confounding factors were accompanied by several other conditions that were also studied in the multivariate analysis. In conclusion, there is no association between the use of pre-operative ureteral catheters and complications of intraoperative ureteral trauma in gynecologic oncology patients undergoing major surgical procedures. Future studies using samples from more sources are expected to assess the relation between pre-operative ureteral catheter use and the incidence of urological trauma more accurately, and to assess the ease of use of pre-operative ureteral catheter.

Fetus in Fetu at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital: A Rare Case Report

2024-08-06T11:57:07+08:00

Abstract: Fetus in fetu (FIF) is a rare congenital disorder in which a malformed fetus-like structure is inside the actual body of the fetus. We reported a 3-day old female baby, born through sectio caesaria with a lump on her right abdomen. On physical examination, a rounded mass of 8x8 cm was palpable in the right hypochondrium. CT-scan of the abdomen with contrast revealed a heterogeneous mass of mixed cystic and solid accompanied by calcification in the form of vertebrae and extremities in the upper right abdomen (size ±5,6 x 6 x 6 cm). The mass appeared to be abutting with the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and right kidney by pressing the intestinal loops to the left. A laparotomy was performed with extensive tumor excision, and a malformed fetus-shaped mass with good differentiation characterized by a hand-like structure, fairly complete toes and skin on its surface was found. The tumor was diagnosed as a FIF since the benchmark for diagnosing FIF was the shape of a fetus-like mass, a mature bone structure with components such as cranium, vertebrae, pelvis, extremities and even fingers as found in this patient. The patient was carried out a 5-day treatment after surgery, and then was referred to the Pediatric Surgery polyclinic for a follow-up on the histopathological result to confirm the diagnosis but the patient did not come for further treatment.

Pediatric Pleomorphic Adenoma of Parotid Gland: A Case Report

2024-06-25T11:06:40+08:00

Abstract: Pleomorphic adenoma is a type of tumor that affects the parotid glands. It is also called a benign mixed tumor (BMT) because it has both epithelial and myoepithelial cells. This type of tumor is the most frequent parotid gland tumor, making up about 66% of all such tumors in parotid glands. We reported a case of 12-year-old male patient with a lump on his parotid gland, measured 7x3x3cm at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. CT Scan results of neck region of the patient revealed that there was a mass in the right side colli area and right frontal sinusitis A histopathological examination of the tumor tissue showed that it was encapsulated by connective tissue and composed of proliferating epithelial and myoepithelial tumor cells, some with clear nuclei, arranged in solid and microcystic patterns, and interspersed with fibromyxoid stroma. The patient was diagnosed as parotid gland adenoma, therefore, a parotidectomy was performed on him. He was discharged home and advised to return for a check-up one week later to remove the stitches. At the two-month follow-up visit, he was stable and did not require any additional therapy. In conclusion, a parotidectomy shows good result in the patient with parotid gland adenoma. However, due to the recurrence rate of parotid gland malignancies, several oncologists prefer to observe the patient periodically trough follow up at policlinic. Early detection and right management are required to achieve the best prognosis.

2024-10-22T11:26:26+08:00

Abstract: The most common arthritis in the hip joint is due to joint wear and tear, osteoarthritis (OA). One of the most effective types of surgery to perform on hip OA is total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to determine the functional results of total hip arthroplasty surgery in cases of hip arthritis at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado by using telemedicine. This was a descriptive study interviewing patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty in the period of January-November 2023 via video call. The Harris hip score (HHS) was measured before and after THA. The results showed that from five patients who underwent HHS evaluation before THA, all of them had poor scores (100%). Meanwhile, the HHS after THA showed that one patient had a poor score (20%), one patient had a fairly good score (20%), two patients had good scores (40%), and one patient had a very good score (20%), indicating increased HHS after THA in all patients. In conclusion, total hip arthroplasty is effective in hip arthritis patients. The telemedicine can be an alternative for evaluating patients with hip osteoarthritis after total hip arthroplasy who are difficult to be reached.
