Abstract
Antecedentes: la simpatectomía lumbar mediante radioablación es un tratamiento útil de la isquemia periférica. Sin embargo, la eficacia clínica con respecto a las úlceras de las extremidades inferiores no está suficientemente establecida en la población india. El estudio se realizó para evaluar el papel de la ablación por radiofrecuencia (ARF) de los ganglios simpáticos lumbares en la cicatrización de las úlceras isquémicas del miembro inferior. Método: El estudio prospectivo con 63 pacientes registrados en el servicio de Cirugía General con úlceras isquémicas de miembros inferiores entre diciembre de 2017 y julio de 2019 fueron tratados con ARF. Se excluyó del estudio a los pacientes con enfermedad cardiopulmonar, embarazadas, malformaciones congénitas o infección cutánea en el lugar de la intervención, o que padecían trastornos hemorrágicos. Se realizó una investigación clínica de la herida y se recopilaron datos demográficos. La reducción comparativa en el tamaño de la herida se evaluó mediante el ANOVA de Friedman (P <0,001). La diferencia en la puntuación del dolor, la estancia hospitalaria y la distancia recorrida se evaluaron mediante la prueba de pares emparejados de Wilcoxon (P <0,001), la prueba t para datos no emparejados y la prueba t para datos emparejados (P <0,05). Resultado: la mayoría de los pacientes eran hombres (n = 40) con una edad media de 60,93 DE14,34 años. Se observó una reducción significativa en el tamaño de la herida, las puntuaciones de dolor y la estancia hospitalaria después del procedimiento (P <0,001). El número de sesiones de RFA se asoció significativamente con el tamaño de la úlcera y la clasificación de Fontaine 2 y 3 (P <0,0001). Conclusión: La ARF de los ganglios simpáticos lumbares es una posible modalidad de tratamiento para las úlceras isquémicas de las extremidades inferiores.
