Yoon S, Kwak J, Im D, Yoon H. Review of outcomes of using lower ethanol concentration (83%) in percutaneous ultrasound-guided renal cyst sclerotherapy in dogs. J Vet Sci 2023; 24:e61. [PMID: 37638709 PMCID: PMC10556289 DOI: 10.4142/jvs.23045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2023] [Revised: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 06/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous renal cyst sclerotherapy (PRCS) as a treatment for renal cysts is usually performed with a high concentration of ethanol (≥ 90%). This study reviewed cases in which a lower concentration of ethanol (83%) was used for the procedure in dogs. METHODS Records of cases of renal cysts treated by sclerotherapy using 83% ethanol in dogs were reviewed. Outcomes of the treatment were evaluated by comparing volumes of renal cysts before the procedure and the volumes after treatment, using ultrasound images with the volume reduction rates classified as follows: < 50% of initial volume (failed); ≥ 50% but < 80% of initial volume (partial success); ≥ 80% but < 95% of initial volume (great success); ≥ 95% of initial volume (complete success). RESULTS Out of nine dog kidneys, renal cysts sclerotherapy with 83% ethanol achieved partial success in one kidney, great success in four, and complete success in the other four. No side effect was observed. The mean of the volume-reduction rates was 90.00 ± 11.00 while the minimum and maximum reduction rates were 65% and 100%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The lower ethanol concentration (83%) is good for disinfecting kidneys in PRCS.

[PMID: 35913507 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-022-03621-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2022] [Revised: 07/10/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate predictive factors of treatment response following ethanol sclerotherapy of large renal cysts via computed tomography (CT). METHODS Retrospective study reviewed 71 patients (61.0 ± 13.2 years; M:F = 32:39) who underwent pretreatment CT and were treated with sclerotherapy of a large (> 5 cm) renal cyst (mean volume: 279.8 cc) using 99% ethanol from January 2010 to February 2019. Patients were followed up at least two times, short-term (defined as < 6 months, median 2.1 months) and long-term (defined as > 1 year, median 15.5 months), via ultrasound or CT. Suboptimal response was defined as the volume of residual cyst > 20 mL in each follow-up. Predictive variables of radiologic findings and radiomics features were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Suboptimal response rates were 33.8% and 18.3% at short-term and long-term follow-ups, respectively. In radiologic findings, patients with suboptimal response in the short-term follow-up showed a more frequent estimated cyst volume ≥ 270 mL (OR 14.8, 95% CI 3.9-55.9, p < 0.001) and sinus protrusion (OR 7.0, 95% CI 1.7-28.5, p = 0.007). Cyst volume ≥ 270 mL was also associated with suboptimal response in the long-term follow-up (OR 4.6, 95% CI 1.3-16.9, p = 0.021). When radiomics features were combined, the area under the curve increased from 0.83 to 0.86 and from 0.68 to 0.82 to predict suboptimal response in short-term and long-term follow-ups, respectively. CONCLUSION Greater estimated volume, sinus protrusion, and radiomics features of the cysts in pretreatment CT can help predict suboptimal response of renal cyst after sclerotherapy.

Abstract
Objectives: Here, we compare the success of percutaneous transcatheter sclerosant alcohol therapy (PTSAT) for the postoperative treatment of benign pelvic cysts that occurred after gynecologic surgery. Materials and Methods: The study is a retrospective case–control trial. Gynecological patients who had symptoms due to postoperative pelvic cysts and received PTSAT after gynecologic surgery, between October 2008 and January 2018, were examined in a single training and research hospital in Turkey. Some factors were investigated for associations with postoperative pelvic cyst formation in patients who underwent gynecologic operations for malignancies or benign conditions. Statistical analysis used: The association between two independent and nonnormally distributed continuous variables was analyzed with the Mann–Whitney U-test. Spearman's rho correlation analysis was conducted to determine the correlation of two nonnormally distributed variables. Chi-square (or Fisher's exact test, when more suitable) was used to examine the correlation between categorical variables. Results: Statistically significant differences were found in terms of the average age was higher in patients with malignancies, and the average postoperative pelvic cyst detection time was higher in patients with benign pelvic cysts. While all patients were treated with PTSAT, repetitive PTSAT was required for seven benign and ten malign cases. Conclusion: Patients with pelvic cysts that occurred after gynecologic surgery for malignant conditions, large volume pelvic cysts and patients with benign cysts who underwent more than one surgery required recurrent PTSAT.

Abstract
Lipiodol is an iodinated poppy seed oil first synthesized in 1901. Originally developed for therapeutic purposes, it has mainly become a diagnostic contrast medium since the 1920s. At the end of the 20th century, Lipiodol underwent a transition back to a therapeutic agent, as exemplified by its increasing use in lymphangiography and lymphatic interventions. Nowadays, indications for lymphangiography include chylothorax, chylous ascites, chyluria, and peripheral lymphatic fistula or lymphoceles. In these indications, Lipiodol alone has a therapeutic effect with clinical success in 51% to 100% of cases. The 2 main access sites to the lymphatic system for lymphangiography are cannulation of lymphatic vessels in the foot (transpedal) and direct puncture of (mainly inguinal) lymph nodes (transnodal). In case of failure of lymphangiography alone to occlude the leaking lymphatic vessel as well as in indications such as protein-losing enteropathy, postoperative hepatic lymphorrhea, or plastic bronchitis, lymphatic vessels can also be embolized directly by injecting a mixture of Lipiodol and surgical glues (most commonly in thoracic duct embolization). The aim of this article is to review the historical role of Lipiodol and the evolution of its clinical application in lymphangiography over time until the current state-of-the-art lymphatic imaging techniques and interventions.

Abstract
Aim The goal of the paper was to evaluate the procedure of percutaneous drainage of symptomatic hepatic cysts under the transabdominal ultrasound control combined with obliteration. Material and method Within the period from 2005 to 2015, 70 patients diagnosed with a simple hepatic cyst of symptomatic nature were subject to hospitalization and treated at the 2nd General, Gastroenterological and Cancer Surgery of the Alimentary System Center and Clinics of the Medical University of Lublin. All the patients subject to evaluation were qualified to percutaneous drainage under an ultrasound control. The drainage utilized typical sets of drains with the diameter of at least 9 F, most often of pigtail type. The fluid aspirated form the cyst was dispatched for complex laboratory testing. Further, a 10% sodium chloride solution was administered to the cyst through the drain, in the volume depending on the previous size of the cyst and the patient's reaction. Results Patients reported for a re-visit within the period from 3 to 9 months following the procedure. Complete obliteration of the cyst was confirmed only in 8 patients (11%). Cyst recurrence was reported in cases when during the ultrasound evaluation, the diameter of the cyst following aspiration and obliteration enlarged to over 75% of the initial dimension. In this group, in 10 out of 12 examined (83%) there was a relapse of the previously observed ailments. Among patients, who has a cyst imaged within the period of observation, which had the diameter from 50% to 75% of the previous size, only in 6 cases (37.5%) the initial symptoms relapsed. Conclusions The utilization of a drainage and obliteration enables one to achieve the acceptable result of the therapy as well as significant decrease in the number of previously reported ailments and symptoms described.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common genetic disorders caused by a single gene mutation. The disease usually manifests itself at the age of 30-40 years and is characterized by formation of renal cysts along with the enlargement of kidneys and deterioration of their function, eventually leading to renal insufficiency. Imaging studies (sonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging) play an important role in the diagnostics of the disease, the monitoring of its progression, and the detection of complications. Imaging is also helpful in detecting extrarenal manifestations of ADPKD, most significant of which include intracranial aneurysms and cystic liver diseases.

Abstract
Aim. To evaluate the feasibility of percutaneous sclerotherapy of symptomatic simple abdominal cysts, using hypertonic saline and bleomycin, as an alternative to surgery. Materials and Methods. This study involved fourteen consecutive patients (ten women, four men, mean age: 59.2 y) with nineteen symptomatic simple cysts (liver n = 14, kidney n = 3, and adrenal n = 2) treated percutaneously using a modified method. Initially CT-guided drainage was performed; the next day the integrity of the cyst/exclusion of extravasation or communications was evaluated under fluoroscopy, followed by two injections/reabsorptions of the same quantity of hypertonic NaCl 15% solution and three-time repetition of the same procedure with the addition of bleomycin. The catheter was then removed; the patients were hospitalized for 12 hours and underwent follow-ups on 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 12th months. Cyst's volumes and the reduction rate (%) were calculated in each evaluation. Results. No pain or complications were noted. A significant cyst's volume reduction was documented over time (P < 0.001). On the 12th month 17 cysts disappeared and two displayed a 98.7% and 68.9% reduction, respectively. Conclusion. This percutaneous approach constitutes a very promising nonsurgical alternative for patients with symptomatic simple cyst, without complications under proper precautions, leading to eliminating the majority of cysts.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy, safety, and role of splenic biopsy in the management of patients with non-mass-forming isolated splenomegaly and suspected malignant lymphoma. Methods Between 2001 and 2013, 137 biopsies were performed under computed tomography (CT) fluoroscopic guidance in 39 patients. All patients had splenomegaly based on the CT findings and a suspected diagnosis of malignant lymphoma based on their clinical symptoms. The spleen was the only accessible site to perform a biopsy, and no mass lesions could be identified in the spleen. Results The overall sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of image-guided biopsy for malignant lymphoma were 88%, 100% and 92%, respectively. Major complications occurred in 3 patients. In 1 patient, transcatheter arterial embolization was performed due to hemorrhage, and two patients needed blood transfusion because of hematoma development, without the need for further treatment. Conclusions Image-guided splenic core-needle biopsy is a safe and accurate technique with a high diagnostic accuracy in most patients who with non-mass-forming isolated splenomegaly and suspected underlying malignant lymphoma.

Abstract
We present the case of a 29-years-old male patient, affected by a voluminous post-traumatic mesenteric cyst, a rare abdominal disease; our patient represents a rarely affected age group. Treatment was based on interventional radiology with an US-guided drainage and sclerosis by ethyl alcohol of the lesion. The intervention performed on this patient represents the application of a standardized radiological technique to a new contest, mesenteric cysts, whose gold-standard treatment is represented in literature by surgery. In our case we obtained an optimal result, with complete regression of the treated cyst: it proved to be an effective, feasible, safe and minimally invasive procedure.

Abstract
Percutaneous splenic biopsy and drainage are relatively safe and accurate procedures. The risk of major complication (1.3%) following percutaneous splenic biopsy does not exceed that of other solid intra-abdominal organ biopsies, and it has less morbidity and mortality than splenectomy. Both computed tomography and ultrasound can be used to provide image guidance for biopsy and drainage. The safety profile of fine-needle aspiration cytology is better than core needle biopsy, but core biopsy has superior diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
With modern cross-sectional imaging techniques, cystic lesions are very common and usually incidental findings, especially if small. However, when cysts enlarge, become infected, bleed, or undergo torsion, they can be symptomatic, and percutaneous drainage can be effective in the management. When cysts recur after aspiration, which is often the case for hepatic and renal cysts, cyst sclerosis or surgical unroofing may be required. This article describes the indications for and technical aspects of percutaneous sclerotherapy of cystic lesions of multiple organ systems.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of single-session percutaneous needle aspiration and single-injection bleomycin sclerotherapy for the treatment of simple renal cysts. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 66 renal cysts in 53 patients were treated by single-session percutaneous needle aspiration and single-injection bleomycin sclerotherapy under computed tomography (CT) guidance. Symptomatic (n = 31) and asymptomatic cysts (n = 22) with maximum diameters greater than 5 cm were treated. As much liquid content of each cyst was aspirated as possible, and bleomycin was injected and remained in the cyst. Follow-up was performed with ultrasonography or CT every 3 months until 1 year, and cyst volume was calculated before and after sclerotherapy. Therapeutic response was assessed by cyst volume reduction rate (VRR) and classified as complete regression (CR; ie, invisible), near-CR (ie, VRR>85%), partial regression (PR; ie, VRR of 50%-85%), or no response (NR; ie, VRR<50%). Medical records were reviewed to analyze complications. RESULTS Cysts refilled partially in the initial stage after sclerotherapy and decreased gradually in size over the entire follow-up period. At 1-year follow-up, the overall response rate was 98.5% (65 of 66), with CR in 31 cysts (47.0%), near-CR in 24 cysts (36.4%), PR in 10 cysts (15.1%), and NR in one cyst (1.5%). No major complications were encountered. CONCLUSIONS Single-session percutaneous needle aspiration and single-injection bleomycin sclerotherapy is a simple, safe, effective, well tolerated alternative technique for management of simple renal cysts.

This rare cystic lesion has an approximate incidence of 1 in 200,000. This patient complained of abdominal distension and was diagnosed with a giant mesenteric cyst measuring 26 cm in height using CT imaging. She underwent a successful ultrasound-guided drainage, which is not previously reported in the literature. This represents utilisation of an established procedure in a novel situation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fine needle aspiration alone has been used as a treatment for bronchogenic cysts, but is subject to a high rate of recurrence. The purpose of this study was to review our experience with computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous large-needle aspiration and bleomycin sclerotherapy of bronchogenic cysts in four patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four patients with bronchogenic cysts at subcarinal (n = 1), paraspinal (n = 1), or intrapulmonary (n = 2) sites were treated at two medical centers with percutaneous transthoracic aspiration with a 17.5-gauge needle and sclerotherapy with use of bleomycin as the sclerosant agent. Clinical symptoms were seen in three of the four patients: recurrent cough in two and recurrent chest discomfort and palpitation in one. CT was used to guide the procedures. After sclerotherapy, the sizes of ablated cysts were followed by CT. RESULTS At a median follow-up of 10 months (range, 6-14 months), all three patients with symptoms had symptomatic relief and all four patients showed a nearly complete regression of bronchogenic cyst on follow-up CT. No recurrence was encountered. Minor complications included a small asymptomatic pneumothorax at the end of the procedure in one patient and a mild fever (38.0 degrees C-38.5 degrees C) on the first day after sclerotherapy in one patient, which resolved spontaneously without treatment. No major complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS CT-guided percutaneous treatment of bronchogenic cysts with large-needle aspiration and bleomycin sclerotherapy was safe and effective in this limited series. Further investigation of this technique is warranted.
