Quimioterapia intraperitoneal caliente (HIPEC) - Medical Animation
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: La quimioterapia intraperitoneal hipertérmica, o HIPEC, es una opción de tratamiento para pacientes con cáncer avanzado que se extendió hasta la cavidad abdominal o el peritoneo. Los médicos comienzan con lo que se denomina cirugía citorreductora para eliminar todos los tumores visibles del área abdominal. El alcance de la cirugía depende de lo que se encuentre durante la cirugía. La cirugía puede incluir la remoción de tumores del área abdominal superior e inferior, sobre el epiplón, hígado, estómago, intestino delgado, colón, recto, páncreas, bazo, apéndice, útero, ovarios y superficies peritoneales. La cirugía para extraer tumores es minuciosa y agresiva y su objetivo es preservar los órganos siempre que sea posible. El médico examina cuidadosamente la región abdominal, cuadrante por cuadrante, buscando y extrayendo tumores. Con mucho cuidado, el médico usa técnicas quirúrgicas altamente especializadas para remover los tumores de las superficies peritoneales y de los órganos, y sellar los pequeños vasos sanguíneos. Se extraen todos los tumores visibles. A continuación, el médico administra HIPEC o tratamiento de quimioterapia caliente con el objetivo de matar las células de cáncer restantes que no se pueden ver. Se colocan tubos y sondas de temperatura en la cavidad abdominal. El médico cierra brevemente la piel del abdomen con puntos. Se inunda la cavidad abdominal con una solución que incluye fármacos para quimioterapia, esta solución se calienta. Los tubos y sondas se conectan a una máquina. Esta máquina controla la temperatura y el flujo de la solución. La solución de quimioterapia caliente circula de manera continua a través de la cavidad abdominal, de manera que la cavidad quede expuesta de manera uniforme al calor y a la quimioterapia. La combinación de calor y quimioterapia hace que la solución mate las células cancerosas microscópias. [silence] Se aplica una vibración suave en el abdomen para ayudar a la distribución de la solución en todas las superficies dentro del abdomen. Después del tratamiento de HIPEC, el líquido se drena desde la cavidad abdominal. Se vuelve a abrir el abdomen y se quitan los tubos y las sondas. En este momento, se realizan las cirugías reconstructivas necesarias. Por ejemplo, el médico podría tener que volver a conectar el colón extirpado . Por último, el médico cierra la incisión abdominal. La cirugía y el tratamiento de HIPEC juntos pueden tomar entre 6 y 12 horas.

"I just wanted to let you know that after several days on trial, I settled [my client's] construction accident case for $4.5 million. Immediately after the jury was discharged, I spoke with several jurors who told me that they really appreciated the medical illustrations for their clarity in dealing with [my client's] devastating injuries. They also expressed their gratitude in being able to read from a distance all of the notations without difficulty. Obviously, the boards were visually persuasive. I am certain that this contributed to our successful result."

"Medical illustrations are essential evidence in personal injury litigation and MLA is simply the best I've found at producing high-quality illustrations. Your illustrators are not only first-class artists, but creative and responsive. Your turn around time is as good as it gets. My clients have won over $60 million in jury verdicts and I can't recall a case which did not include one of your exhibits. On behalf of those clients, thanks and keep up the great work!"
