    Enfermedad vesicular inaparente o microlitiasis en pacientes con pancreatitis aguda: Una situación clínica frecuente

    Background: Patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) and a normal gallbladder by standard echographic evaluation may have "occult" gallbladder disease or microlithiasis with recurrent episodes of AP. Aim: To conduct a prospective evaluation of patients with the diagnosis of non-biliary AP in order to detect "occult" gallbladder disease and to compare its clinical presentation with that of biliary AP. Patients and methods: Patients admitted with the diagnosis of AP to a clinical hospital were included in the study. According to an abdominal ultrasound study, patients were classified as having or not cholelithiasis. A duodenal biliary drainage was performed in 15 patients with AP and without gallbladder stones. Results: Patients without cholelithiasis had recurrent AP more often than patients with biliary AP (53 and 33% respectively). Excessive alcohol ingestion did not rule out the possibility of biliary etiology. In 6 patients, the analysis of duodenal bile showed cholesterol crystals, and cholecystectomy confirmed the existence of gallbladder disease in 5. All of them remained asymptomatic during a follow-up period of four years. One patient refused surgery, with subsequent development of gallstones and recurrent episodes of AP. In other 4 patients, gallbladder disease was confirmed by percutaneous gallbladder puncture or during cholecystectomy. No recurrence of AP were observed during the follow-up. Conclusions: Microlithiasis or "occult" gallbladder disease accounts for at least 67% of the original "non-biliary" AP. Duodenal bile analysis is a useful and necessary technique for the evaluation of patients with "non-biliary" acute pancreatitis'. Careful clinical and echographic follow-up of this subgroup of patients with AP is mandatory.

    Study and management of thyroid nodes by non specialist physicians: SOCHED consensus
    (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2017) Tala, Hernan; Diaz, Rene E.; Dominguez Ruiz Tagle, Jose Miguel; Sapunar Zenteno, Jorge; Pineda, Pedro; Arroyo Albala, Patricia; Barberan, Marcela; Cabane, Patricio; Cruz Olivos, Francisco; Patricio Gac, E.; Glasinovic Pizarro, Andrea; Gonzalez, Hernan E.; Grob, Francisca; Hidalgo Valle, Maria Soledad; Jaimovich, Rodrigo; Lanas, Alejandra; Liberman, Claudio; Lobo Guinez, Maite; Madrid, Arturo; Moreno Seguel, Marcela; Mosso, Lorena; Fernando Munizaga, C.; Ortiz Parada, Eugenia; Osorio Gonnet, Fernando; Slater Morales, Jeannie; Solar, Antonieta; Stehr, Carlos; Vasquez Rodriguez, Felix; Veliz, Jesus; Villaseca Najarian, Roberto; Wohllk, Nelson
    The thyroid nodule is a frequent cause of primary care consultation. The prevalence of a palpable thyroid nodule is approximately 4-7%, increasing up to 67% by the incidental detection of nodules on ultrasound. The vast majority are benign and asymptomatic, staying stable over time. The clinical importance of studying a thyroid nodule is to exclude thyroid cancer, which occurs in 5 to 10% of the nodules. The Board of SOCHED (Chilean Society of Endocrinology and Diabetes) asked the Thyroid Study Group to develop a consensus regarding the diagnostic management of the thyroid nodule in Chile, aimed at non-specialist physicians and adapted to the national reality. To this end, a multidisciplinary group of 31 experts was established among university academics, active researchers with publications on the subject and prominent members of scientific societies of endocrinology, head and neck surgery, pathology and radiology. A total of 14 questions were developed with key aspects for the diagnosis and subsequent referral of patients with thyroid nodules, which were addressed by the participants. In those areas where the evidence was insufficient or the national reality had to be considered, the consensus opinion of the experts was used through the Delphi methodology. The consensus was approved by the SOCHED board for publication.
