Abstract

Abstract: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases with aging and unhealthy lifestyles, especially after the age of 40 years. Hyperglycemia is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. Ankle brachial index (ABI) is an option for early diagnosis of this pathological condition because it is non-invasive, low cost, and easy to perform. This study aimed to determine the relationship between HbA1c level and ankle brachial index value ​​in elderly with T2DM. This was a quantitative study using a cross sectional approach. Samples were 30 elderly DMT2 patients at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado during October –December 2023 that fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data of HbA1c were obtained from the patients’ medical records. Ankle brachial index was assessed using the Doppler ultrasound dan sphygmomanometer. The results showed a moderate and significant negative correlation between HbA1c level and ABI value ​​(r=-0.425; p=0.019). In conclusion, there is a relationship between HbA1c level and ABI value ​​in elderly T2DM patients. The higher the HbA1C level, the lower the ABI value. Keywords: HbA1c; ankle brachial index; type 2 diabetes mellitus; elderly    Abstrak: Prevalensi diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2) meningkat sejalan dengan proses penuaan dan gaya hidup yang tidak sehat terutma pada usia di atas 40 tahun. Hiperglikemi ialah salah satu faktor risiko terjadinya aterosklerosis. Ankle brachial index (ABI) merupakan pilihan untuk diagnosis dini pada keadaan patologi ini karena bersifat non-invasive, murah, dan mudah dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan kadar HbA1c dengan nilai Ankle Brachial Index pada subjek lanjut usia (lansia) dengan DMT2. Penelitian ini menggunakan analisis kuantitatif dengan pendekatan potong lintang. Sampel penelitian ialah 30 pasien lansia DMT2 di RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado selama Oktober –Desember 2023 yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Data HbA1c diperoleh dari data rekam medik pasien. Penilaian ABI menggunakan doppler ultrasound dan sfigmomanometer. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan korelasi negatif kekuatan sedang yang bermakna pada hubungan antara kadar HbA1c dengan nilai ABI (r=-0,425; p=0,019). Simpulan penelitian ini ialah terdapat hubungan bermakna antara kadar HbA1c dengan nilai ABI pada pasien lansia dengan DMT2. Semakin tinggi kadar HbA1c, maka semakin rendah nilai ABI. Kata kunci: HbA1c; ankle brachial index; diabetes melitus tipe 2; lanjut usia

Abstract

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. Keywords: hip osteoarthritis; Harris hip score; total hip arthroplasty; telemedicine    Abstrak: Artritis yang paling umum terjadi pada sendi pinggul diakibatkan oleh keausan sendi atau  disebut osteoartritis (OA). Salah satu jenis operasi yang paling efektif untuk OA pinggul ialah total hip arthroplasty (THA).

Abstract

Abstract: Primary umbilical endometriosis (PUE) is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissue in the umbilicus without a prior history of surgery, often accompanied by cyclical bleeding corresponding to the menstrual cycle. We reported a 41-year-old woman presented with cyclical bleeding from the umbilicus, coinciding with her menstrual periods for several months. Physical examination revealed a small, firm nodule with blood secretion at the umbilicus. The patient had no history of abdominal trauma or previous surgery. Abdominal ultrasonography suggested a diagnosis of umbilical endometriosis. The patient underwent total excision of the umbilical nodule, and histopathological examination confirmed the presence of endometrial tissue. This PUE should be considered as a differential diagnosis in reproductive-age women presenting with umbilical bleeding associated with the menstrual cycle. In this case, the absence of surgical history made the diagnosis of PUE more evident. Surgical treatment with total excision is the main therapeutic option to prevent recurrence. Post-excision histopathological examination is crucial to confirm the diagnosis. This study highlights the importance of clinical awareness of this rare condition to ensure early diagnosis. In conclusion, PUE is a rare condition that should be suspected in patients with the characteristic symptom of cyclical umbilical bleeding. Surgical excision with histopathological confirmation is the standard treatment, with a good prognosis and minimal risk of recurrence. Keywords: primary umbilical endometriosis; umbilical bleeding; surgical excision   Abstrak: Endometriosis umbilikalis primer (EUP) ditandai dengan adanya jaringan endometrium di umbilikus tanpa riwayat operasi sebelumnya, yang sering disertai perdarahan siklik sesuai dengan siklus menstruasi. Kami melaporkan kasus seorang wanita berusia 41 tahun dengan keluhan perdarahan siklik dari umbilikus yang selalu bertepatan dengan periode menstruasinya selama beberapa bulan terakhir. Pemeriksaan fisik menunjukkan adanya nodul kecil dan keras dengan sekresi darah di umbilikus. Pasien tidak memiliki riwayat trauma abdomen atau operasi sebelumnya. Pemeriksaan ultrasonografi abdomen mengarahkan kepada diagnosis endometriosis umbilikalis. Pasien menjalani eksisi total nodul umbilikalis, dan hasil histopatologik mengonfirmasi adanya jaringan endometrium. EUP harus dipertimbangkan sebagai diagnosis banding pada wanita usia reproduktif dengan keluhan perdarahan umbilikalis yang berhubungan dengan siklus menstruasi. Pada kasus ini, tidak adanya riwayat operasi menjadikan diagnosis EUP lebih jelas. Pembedahan berupa eksisi total merupakan pilihan terapi utama untuk menghindari kekambuhan. Pemeriksaan histopatologik pasca-eksisi sangat penting untuk memastikan diagnosis. Studi ini menekankan pentingnya kesadaran klinis terhadap kondisi langka ini agar diagnosis dapat ditegakkan lebih dini. Simpulan studi ini ialah endometriosis umbilikalis primer merupakan kondisi langka yang penting untuk diwaspadai pada pasien dengan gejala khas berupa perdarahan umbilikalis yang siklik. Eksisi bedah dengan konfirmasi histopatologi menjadi standar penanganan utama, dengan hasil prognosis yang baik dan risiko kekambuhan minimal. Kata kunci: endometriosis umbilikalis primer; perdarahan umbilikus; eksisi bedah

Abstract

Abstract: Management approaches for renal trauma vary from conservative methods for contusions to surgical interventions for severe injuries. Postoperative renal artery embolization (RAE) is crucial to control bleeding and preserve renal parenchymal tissue integrity. We reported a patient presented with hematuria 30 minutes after sustaining a stab wound to the right waist, accompanied by severe pain, dizziness, and cold sweats. Physical examination revealed a penetrating wound in the right flank, gross hematuria, and signs of hypovolemic shock. The patient was diagnosed with grade II hypovolemic shock due to a renal laceration and duodenal rupture, initial resuscitation and conservative management were followed by exploratory laparotomy and renorrhaphy. Persistent gross hematuria post-renorrhaphy necessitated embolization. Hypovolemic shock resulted from significant bleeding from duodenal and renal lacerations. Renorrhaphy effectively minimized renal parenchymal damage without urine extravasation. Subsequent angiography revealed gross hematuria, indicating renal arteriovenous malformation (AVM). Embolization using a vortex coil successfully managed bleeding from large vessels and improved perfusion in the lesion area. In conclusion, renal trauma poses serious risks, including hypotension and hemorrhagic shock. Prompt resuscitation followed by surgical repair and angiographic embolization are essential. Embolization remains a generally safe and effective method for achieving selective hemostasis in such cases. Keywords: renal trauma; gross hematuria; renorrhaphy; renal-artery embolization

Abstract

Abstract: Penetrating head injury is defined as head trauma caused by an object that penetrates the skull and the underlying duramater. We reported a 22-year-old man who came to the hospital with a motorcycle key stuck into the back of his head after a fight with his friend approximately one hour before admission. The patient was fully conscious. History of projectile vomiting, and seizures were denied, and there were no other neurological deficits. Blindly removing the key can damage the neural tissue and can cause secondary injury to the brain and surrounding blood vessels. The primary goal of treatment for patients with suspected traumatic brain injury is to prevent secondary brain injury and infection. The removal of the object safely, debridement of the damaged parenchyma, removal of the hematoma, and closure of the injured dura and skin are the main goals of surgical treatment for penetrating head injuries. In this case, motor key evacuation was performed followed by craniotomy and debridement. The prognosis was good, and there was no neurological deficit. In conclusion, complete and adequate care is essential for patients with penetrating brain injuries. The strategy for treating these injuries is primarily surgery with the aim of preventing secondary brain injury and infection. According to existing research, antibiotics should be given for an indefinite period after surgery. Keywords: penetrating head injury; motorcycle key

Abstract

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most common musculoskeletal injuries. Evaluating the clinical outcomes of the ACL reconstruction (ACLR) procedure is essential to provide information regarding the benefits of this procedure. This study aimed to assess the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent ACLR at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. This was a retrospective study. Secondary data were collected from all athlete patients who underwent ACLR. The ACLR procedure was performed by a single operator following the standard arthroscopic procedure. All grafts used Hamstring grafts (gracilis and semitendinosus). Suspense fixation was done using a button, while tibial fixation was done with interference fixation (bioabsorbable screw). Patients were evaluated over a short period, specifically at three months, six months, and nine months. Outcome parameters were assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Range of Motion (ROM), Lachman test, Anterior Drawer test, and Knee Functional Score (KFS). Any complications that arose were documented. The results showed that among 21 patients at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado, it was found that ACL injuries were more common in physically active men, especially in the age group of 26-30 years. Most patients who underwent ACLR had serious injuries that required immediate treatment. Hamstring graft was the most common choice (85.7%). Knee stiffness was the most common complication and required special attention during the rehabilitation program. Based on KFS, most patients successfully achieved good knee function recovery. There was a decrease in the VAS score reflecting the effectiveness of the procedure in reducing postoperative pain. There was an increase in the KSS reflecting the success of ACLR in restoring knee stability and function to almost normal levels. In conclusion, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in sport participants showed significant improvements in knee mobility and pain reduction, with low complications.

Abstract

Abstract: Retrosternal struma is the inclusion of the thyroid gland into the thoracic cavity. Combined access with a neck incision and chest incision or only a neck incision to free the tumor from the chest cavity and avoid damage to surrounding tissues, makes treatment of substernal struma a challenge both preoperatively and during surgery. Systematic technique minimizes the need for sternotomy, even in patients with significant intra thoracic components, and keeps severe complication rates at levels comparable to those of conventional thyroidectomy. We reported a 46-year-old woman complaining of lumps on the right and left neck for six years. The masses were found on the right side of the neck (10x6cm) and on the left side of the neck (4x3cm), which were hard consistency, well-defined, immobile, skin-colored, painless, and moving when swallowing. CT-scan showed a solid mass struma that had entered the superior thoracic aperture. Total thyroidectomy was performed through cervical approach with a good outcome. In conclusion, total thyroidectomy through a cervical approach is able to remove the entire thyroid gland tissue extending to the retrosternal region with a good outcome without performing a sternotomy. Keywords: retrosternal struma; thyroidectomy; cervical approach

Abstract: Over the last decades, the management of chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) has improved rapidly that contributes in the decreasing of cardiovascular mortality. After myocardial infarction, the patient’s condition can improve with the usage of reperfusion therapy with thrombolysis or primary angioplasty and preventive treatment with aspirin and antiplatelet agents, statin, beta-blockers, and renin-angiotensin antagonists. Moreover, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can improve the survival of patients suffering from acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We reported a 49-year-old man, who complained of chest pain for the last one year, which worsened with activity. One day before hospitalization, the chest pain worsened. The patient was diagnosed with CCS CCS (Chronic Coronary Syndrome Canadian Cardiovascular Society) II-III, GERD, hyponatremia, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, and dyspepsia. After further examination, a RF-CL of 20% (moderate) was obtained. A Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography examination was carried out resulting a positive ischemic response, then DCA-PCI was performed. The patient went home without any complaints. The management of this patient from diagnosis to therapy is in accordance with the ESC CCS 2024 guidelines. In conclusion, regarding the importance of acute chest pain management, patients with chest pain should not be underestimated and there are many modalities that can be used to confirm the diagnosis of chronic coronary syndromes. Keywords: chronic coronary syndrome; dobutamin stress echocardiography; percutaneous coronary intervention; risk factor-clinical likelihood   Abstrak: Selama beberapa dekade terakhir, manajemen sindrom koroner kronis telah meningkat pesat yang menyebabkan mortalitas kardiovaskular telah menurun secara stabil. Kondisi pasien setelah infark miokard dapat menjadi lebih optimal dengan adanya terapi reperfusi dengan trombolisis atau angioplasti primer dan terapi pencegahan seperti aspirin dan agen antiplatelet lainnya, statin, beta-blocker, dan antagonis renin-angiotensin. Intervensi koroner perkutan (IKP) dapat meningkatkan kelangsungan hidup pasien yang mengalami sindrom koroner akut (SKA). Kami melaporkan seorang laki-laki berusia 49 tahun, dengan keluhan nyeri dada sejak 1 tahun terakhir, diperberat dengan aktivitas. Sehari sebelum masuk rumah sakit, nyeri dada dirasakan memberat. Pasien didiagnosis dengan sindroma koroner kronik CCS CCS (Chronic Coronary Syndrome Canadian Cardiovascular Society) II-III, GERD, hiponatremia, dislipidemia, hiperurisemia, dan dispepsia. Pada pemeriksaan lanjut, didapatkan RF-CL 20% (moderate), kemudian dilakukan pemeriksaan dobutamin stress echocardiography dan didapatkan hasil iskemik respons positif, sehingga dilanjutkan dengan IKP. Penatalaksanaan pasien ini sejak konfirmasi diagnosis sampai terapi telah sesuai dengan Guidelines ESC CCS 2024. Pasien dipulangkan dengan tidak ada keluhan. Simpulan kasus ini ialah terkait tatalaksana nyeri dada akut, pasien dengan nyeri dada tidak boleh diremehkan, dan telah banyak modalitas yang dapat digunakan untuk mendiagnosis sindroma koroner kronik. Kata kunci: sindrom koroner kronik; dobutamin stress echocardiography; intervensi koroner perkutan; risk factor-clinical likelihood
