Síndrome toracoabdominal. Presentación de un caso. Thoracoabdominal síndrome. A case report
Abstract
Se trata un caso de un recién nacido de la raza blanca, primogénito, nacido a las 39 semanas de gestación en parto eutócico, que ingresó en el Servicio de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatales por un defecto óseo y músculo aponeurótico, cubierto por piel desde el tercio medio distal del esternón que se extendía hasta el ombligo, siendo portador de una Ectopia Cordis Toracoabdominal, un Onfalocele minor y una persistencia del conducto arterioso sin repercusión hemodinámica, que evolucionó de forma favorable, colocándosele material sintético en el tórax (gorotex) como medio de protección. Fue egresado a los 16 días y reingresado a los 2 meses para la reparación del Onfalocele, falleciendo en un cuadro de fallo multiorgánico por sepsis. El fenotipo constatado en el propósitus se consideró compatible con el Síndrome Toracoabdominal, de patrón de herencia dominante ligada al X (MIM: 313850), reportado por Carmi et al en 1990, constituyendo el segundo caso esporádico reconocido en Pinar del Río (Cuba) en dos familias no relacionadas.

ABSTRACT
A Caucasian male newborn, first born, delivered at 39 weeks of pregnancy in an eutocic labor was admitted at the Intensive Neonatal Care Unit, presenting an osseous defect and aponeurotic muscle covered by skin of the distal median third of the sternum extended to the navel. He was a carrier of a Thoracoabdominal Ectopia Cordis, a minor Omphalocele and a Patent Ductus Arteriosus without hemodynamic repercussion evolving favorably with the placement of a synthetic material in the thorax (Gorotex) as a protection. The patient was discharged from the hospital at 16 days old and readmitted at 2 months old to restore the Omphalocele, dying of multiple organ failure due to sepsis. The phenotype observed on the propositus was compatible with the Thoracoabdominal Syndrome, which has a dominant trait pattern linked to X _chromosome (MIM: 313850) reported by carmi et al. In 1990. This was the second sporadic case reported in Pinar del Río, Cuba, in two families which were not related.
