OBSTRUCCIÓN INTESTINAL, NEOPLASIAS
Resumen
Introducción: la oclusión intestinal (OI) es una complicación frecuente de los pacientes oncológicos en etapa terminal. Cuando no es posible la cirugía, el tratamiento es médico, sin embargo este aún no está protocolizado.
Objetivo: analizar el tratamiento de pacientes con diagnóstico de oclusión intestinal maligna (OIM) fuera de sanción quirúrgica.
Material y método: trabajo retrospectivo descriptivo de diez pacientes atendidos por la Unidad de Cuidados Paliativos del Servicio de Oncología del Hospital Central de las Fuerzas Armadas, diagnóstico de OIM desde el 1º de enero de 2009 al 31 de diciembre de 2010.
Resultados: separamos a los pacientes según resultado terapéutico: en quienes revirtió la OIM (6/10) y en quienes no revirtió la OIM (4/10). En el primer grupo la edad media fue de 55 años, la causa de oclusión en 5/6 pacientes fue íleo adinámico. El tratamiento terapéutico comenzó entre el primer y el sexto día de iniciado los síntomas. Todos los pacientes utilizaron dexametasona, metoclopramida, antiácidos y analgésicos, hioscina en 5/6 pacientes, neostigmina fue utilizada en dos pacientes con dolor mínimo, haloperidol y levomepromazina en dos pacientes en que predominaron los vómitos. La sobrevida media fue de 39 días. En el segundo grupo la edad media fue de 75 años. La causa de OIM fue mecánica en 2/4 pacientes. Todos presentaban más de tres comorbilidades. Todos los pacientes utilizaron metoclopramida, dos de ellos haloperidol y tres dexametasona. Sobrevida media: nueve días.
Discusión: obtuvimos buenos resultados al iniciar tempranamente un plan con corticoides, haloperidol, analgesia y neostigmina, que deberán ser validados en un estudio prospectivo y con mayor número de pacientes.
