Epidemiologia de hidatosis en el Hospital el Carmen 2002-2006

Fabricio Marcelo Párraga Baltazar

-Universidad Peruana de los Andes

-hoy hablaremos solo la epidemiologia de la hidatosis en el hospital el Carmen 2002 - 2006

Marco Teórico

Nos presenta el problema socioeconómico planteado por la hidatidosis en la Tierra del Perú. objetivamente en el Hospital El Carmen de la ciudad de Huancayo, Junín, y se destaca la necesidad de establecer la obligatoriedad de la notificación de casos, centralizar la información estadística correspondiente, efectuar campañas de educación sanitaria, evitar la matanza clandestina del ganado y tratar regularmente a los perros con antihelmínticos. Generalidades La hidatidosis es enfermedad conocida de muy antiguo, pues fue descrita ya por Hipócrates y luego por Galeno y Areteo, sin tener, claro está, conocimiento de su etiologí la cual es  es una enfermedad parasitaria grave.

Analizando el cuadro donde constan los órganos afectados, observamos un mayor porcentaje de localización en el hígado en todas las especies de ganado sacrificado, lo que contrasta con la mayor frecuencia de localización pulmonar en el hombre. También es interesante destacar el alto porcentaje de órganos afectados en auquénidos. Teniendo en cuenta los órganos decomisados por quiste hidatídico y haciendo una estimación del peso medio, de acuerdo con órganos y especies, se han calculado las pérdidas ocasionadas por dichos decomisas, acorde con los precios vigentes en plaza, y se obtuvo un total de 11.604.154 soles correspondiente a los 444.610 órganos decomisados, de un total de 4.418.900 seres sacrificadas.

Objetivo

El objetivo de este trabajo ha sido conocer el estado de la hidatidosis humana, por la gran incidencia que presenta en nuestro país, principalmente en la región central andina. La recopilación de datos fue a partir de la revisión de fuentes primarias sobre epidemiología, el ciclo vital del parásito y del manejo del paciente afecto de Hidatidosis. Algunos hallazgos permiten afirmar que la hidatidosis es una enfermedad producida por el estado larval del cestodo Echinococcus del género Granulosus, de alta prevalencia en nuestro país y más en la región central andina, esto se debe principalmente a la costumbre de convivir con perros y ganado ovino así como también a la falta de educación y concientización de la población. Los estudios serológicos como Elisa IgG y Wester Blot por su mayor sensibilidad y especificidad son las pruebas de primera línea para confirmar el diagnóstico. Dependiendo del tamaño, las características del quiste hidatídico y su localización se decide el tratamiento. La hidatidosis es una enfermedad producida por el cestodo Echinococcus Granulosus de alta prevalencia en el Perú y más aún en la región central andina (Cerro de Pasco, Junín, Huancavelica), tiene un lento crecimiento dentro de los órganos humanos pudiendo ser asintomáticos hasta la edad adulta, los órganos más afectados son el hígado y el pulmón donde son diagnosticados por sus antecedentes epidemiológicos, clínica sugestiva (dolor abdominal, vómica) estudios de imagen principalmente ecografía abdominal, radiografía de tórax y exámenes de laboratorio como el Elisa IgG y Wester Blot.

Epidemiologia 

La hidatidosis es una zoonosis de distribución mundial, conocida desde la época de Hipócrates aparece en toda Europa, especialmente en la región mediterránea y zonas de América Latina, Asia, África y Australia donde puede llegar a tener una incidencia de 50 casos anuales por cada 100 000 habitantes (1). En América Latina los países más afectados son Uruguay, Argentina, Brasil, Perú, Bolivia y Chile donde representa un serio problema de salud pública (2, 3) El Perú en la actualidad, es probablemente el país de las Américas con una mayor incidencia y prevalencia de equinococosis quística, entre el 2001 y 2006 el número de casos por año fue entre 7 y 11 casos por cada 100 000 personas, sin embargo hay departamentos con más altas tasas de incidencias entre 14 y 34 casos por cada 100 000 habitantes como es el caso de Junín, Cerro de Paco y Huancavelica (4, 5, 6), en estos departamentos las provincias de Chupaca, Chaupimarca y Acoria respectivamente son los lugares de donde provienen la mayoría de los pacientes (6).

Anatomía patológica

El diagnóstico de certeza se logra con la visualización del escólex, directamente o con el estudio anatomopatológico de las dos membranas que presenta el quiste hidatídico, la externa o cutícula y la interna germinativa o prolígera (23). blanquecina, opaca, elástica pero muy frágil, su composición química es semejante a la quitina y es PAS positiva, la membrana germinativa es una capa delgada de15 a 20 µm de espesor, de color amarillento y de aspecto finamente granular tiene un aspecto sincisial con numerosos núcleos, muy rica en glucógeno de ella nacen, se nutren y se liberan los escólex (13). El quiste hidatídico contiene un líquido transparente rico en cloruro de sodio, urea, ácido úrico, vestigios de albúminas y grasas que posee propiedades antigénicas así como elementos macroscópicos (vesículas hijas) como microscópicos (vesículas prolígeras, escólices y ganchitos) (13). En el 50 % de los casos se ha podido observar una mayor asociación entre fertilidad y quiste pulmonar así como la ausencia de la calcificación de su adventicia (7, 20) distinto al quiste hepático donde la calcificación tardía suele verse hasta en el 10 % de los casos (23).

Tratamiento

Según la clasificación de la OMS existen cuatro alternativas de tratamiento para la hidatidosis, la cirugía, el PAIR (punción, aspiración, inyección, reaspiración), farmacológico y el “observar y esperar”, la mejor opción dependerá de la experiencia del grupo tratante, del número y localización de los quistes, de la existencia de complicaciones asociadas, de la evidencia acumulada en la literatura médica y de las preferencias del paciente (2, 7). La cirugía es el tratamiento de elección en los quistes grandes o infectados o con posibilidad de ruptura y para los quistes localizados en órganos importantes, en general existen 2 tipos de cirugía, la radical que consiste en una periquistectomía y en algunos casos segmentectomía o lobectomía, la conservadora que consiste en el drenaje de la cavidad con una remoción parcial de las membranas, está última está asociada a un mayor número de complicaciones tales como fístula biliar o absceso de la cavidad (7, 21). Se prefiere la cirugía radical frente a la conservadora por su eficacia del 100 % cuando se logra la extirpación completa de la membrana germinativa y no se dejan cavidades residuales ni comunicaciones con el exterior, además tiene una menor recidiva local y menor tasa de morbilidad post operatoria así como de complicaciones hepáticas (7, 21).

Conclusiones

La hidatidosis es una enfermedad producida por el cestodo Echinococcus granulosus de alta pre-valencia en el Perú y más aún en la región central andina (Cerro de Pasco, Junín, Huancavelica), en el caso representativo de esta tesis hablamos sobre el aumento de enfermos de esta patología en el Hospital el Carmen. Lo cual tiene un lento crecimiento dentro de los órganos humanos pudiendo ser asintomáticos hasta la edad adulta, los órganos más afectados son el hígado y el pulmón donde son diagnosticados por sus antecedentes epidemiológicos, clínica sugestiva (dolor abdominal, vómica) estudios de imagen principalmente ecografía abdominal, radiografía de tórax y exámenes de laboratorio como el Elisa IgG y Wester Blot. Dependiendo del tamaño la OMS plantea 4 opciones de tratamiento, la cirugía el PAIR (punción, aspiración, inyección, re-aspiración), el farmacológico y el “observar y esperar”. En el Perú, por desconocimiento y falta de insumos se emplea principalmente el tratamiento quirúrgico. Este estudio se hizo para tratar de estandarizar el diagnóstico y manejo de esta enfermedad a través de guías con evidencia científica aceptada en la literatura médica.

DC Announces YA/MG imprints DC Ink & DC Zoom

DC Ink: For Young Adult readers  

DC Zoom: For Middle Grade Readers

DC Entertainment revealed two new original graphic novel publishing imprints today, DC Ink focused on young adult (YA) readers, and DC Zoom focused on middle grade (MG) readers. Both imprints will feature a world class line-up of authors who have established YA and MG fan bases. These authors will bring their storytelling expertise to a DC Universe filled with iconic characters like Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and many more. The first titles from DC Ink and DC Zoom will be released in Fall 2018.

“Superheroes are more popular than ever so it only makes sense to bring these DC characters to an entirely new generation of young readers,” stated Diane Nelson, president of DC Entertainment and president of Warner Bros. Consumer Products. “The first comic books created decades ago were for kids, and as the business evolved and matured, it became more focused on adult readers. DC Ink and DC Zoom present an exciting new opportunity to grow our publishing business and ensure beloved stories built around iconic characters like Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are endeared as part of the fabric of childhood for years to come.”

“Two of the recent areas of growth in publishing include graphic novels and books for young readers – we’re bringing those formats together with DC Ink and DC Zoom,” said DC Entertainment Publishers Dan DiDio and Jim Lee. “We’ve already experienced tremendous success with our DC Super Hero Girls graphic novels. The new DC Ink and DC Zoom slate, paired with a stellar author line-up, presents a major business growth opportunity and we couldn’t be more excited – we’re going big.”

The first titles from DC Ink include HARLEY QUINN: BREAKING GLASS by Mariko Tamaki (SUPERGIRL: BEING SUPER) with art by Steve Pugh, and MERA by Danielle Paige (DOROTHY MUST DIE series). The first title to hit shelves from DC Zoom will be DC SUPER HERO GIRLS: SEARCH FOR ATLANTIS from writer Shea Fontana and artist Yancey Labat. All three titles will go on sale in Fall 2018, with many more titles from DC Ink and DC Zoom set to follow in 2019.

From the NYT story “The softcover Zoom graphic novels will cost $9.99 and run 128 pages, while the Ink books will be priced at $16.99 for 192 pages. The stories will be free from the elaborate continuity of previous superhero tales”

“They are character studies, not necessarily superhero stories,” said Bobbie Chase

Kościół św. Andrzeja, Kraków

Ufundowany został pod koniec XI w. przez palatyna Władysława Hermana-Sieciecha. W XIV w. pieczę nad kościołem przejęły siostry klaryski, które przeniosły się tutaj z miejscowości Skała (okolice Ojcowa). Kościół wielokrotnie ucierpiał z powodu dotkliwych pożarów. W XVII w. do budowli dodano barokowe hełmy wieżowe, natomiast ok. 1700 r. gruntownie przekształcono wnętrze. Przepiękną dekoracje stiukową, bardzo podobną do tej, jaką możemy zobaczyć w kolegiacie uniwersyteckiej św. Anny, wykonał Baltazar Fontana. Stiuki uzupełniają malowidła, prawdopodobnie autorstwa Karola Dankwarta.

Kościół św. Andrzeja jest budowlą romańską, kamienną, z wieżami ozdobionymi w górnych kondygnacjach ażurowymi biforiami. Kościoły z tego okresu służyły nie tylko celom religijnym, ale także miały charakter fortecy i wszelkie predyspozycje ku temu, by odeprzeć ataki wroga. Tak też było w przypadku omawianej świątyni. Kościół w czasie jednego z najazdów tatarskich dał schronienie mieszkańcom Krakowa, którzy dzięki tej kryjówce uniknęli masakry.

W skarbcu klasztornym znajdują się prawdziwe perełki sztuki średniowiecznej, m.in. iluminowane księgi oraz unikatowe figurki jasełkowe z XIV w. ufundowane prawdopodobnie przez królową Elżbietę Łokietkówną, żonę króla węgierskiego Karola Roberta.

Church of St. Andrew, Kraków, Poland

It was founded at the end of the 11th century by the palatine Władysław Herman-Sieciech. In the 14th century, the care of the church was taken over by the Poor Clare Sisters, who moved here from Skała (near Ojców). The church suffered numerous fires. In the 17th century, baroque tower cupolas were added to the building, and around 1700 the interior was thoroughly transformed. Beautiful stucco decoration, very similar to what we can see in the university collegiate church of St. Anna, made by Baltazar Fontana. The stucco is complemented by paintings, probably by Karol Dankwart.

Church of St. Andrew is a Romanesque stone building, with towers decorated on the upper floors with openwork biforia. Churches from this period served not only religious purposes, but also had the character of a fortress and had every predisposition to repel enemy attacks. During one of the Tatar invasions, the church sheltered the inhabitants of Krakow.

The monastery's treasury contains real gems of medieval art, including illuminated books and unique 14th-century nativity figures probably funded by Queen Elisabeth Lokietkowna, wife of Hungarian King Charles Robert.

During today’s Book Buzz panel at the American Library Association’s (ALA) annual convention in Washington D.C., DC announced plans to expand its Books for Young Readers program with an extensive new graphic novel slate geared toward young adults and middle grade readers. The new titles revealed today are scheduled to debut from 2020 through 2021 and feature stories starring Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and more of DC’s most iconic characters, written and illustrated by some of the biggest names in the young adult (YA) and middle grade publishing space.

DC Ink and DC Zoom

"DC Zoom (targeted to middle grade readers, ages 8-12) and DC Ink (for young adult readers, ages 13-up) are two new young reader graphic novel imprints from DC. Both lines will introduce DC's most iconic Super Heroes to a new generation of fans with stories told by some of the most successful authors from the middle grade and young adult publishing space. While the books will star popular DC characters, the stories will not necessarily fit the typical "superhero" storytelling mold. We'll see many of these superheroes and original characters as relatable middle school and high schoolers, dealing with the typical struggles and real-world issues that young people face today. DC Zoom and DC Ink titles will also be standalone stories, not part of DC's ongoing continuity, and completely accessible to new readers who have no previous knowledge of DC characters."
