Changes of oral microcirculation in chemotherapy patients: A possible correlation with mucositis?

Abstract: The aim of this investigation is to appraise labial oral microcirculation in chemotherapy patients to clarify the effects of cytotoxic agents on oral microvessels. Twenty-five patients with diagnosis of head and neck tumors were recruited in the study. All the patients were submitted to chemotherapy. Labial oral microcirculation was evaluated on labial mucosa using oral videocapillaroscopy. The statistical significance was checked with the Mann-Whitney U-test (P < 0.05). The analysis of videocapillaroscopic pa… Show more

“…Há poucos estudos avaliando alterações na microcirculação induzidas pela quimioterapia (MILSTEIN et al, 2009;MILSTEIN et al, 2010;SCARDINA;CACIOPPO;MESSINA, 2014;WILDER-SMITH, 2007). Dentre estes apenas um estudo avaliou o fluxo sanguíneo como parâmetro hemodinâmico utilizando OCT/ODT, portanto este estudo é o primeiro e único estudo a utilizar a FDL para avaliar os efeitos citotóxicos da quimioterapia sobre o fluxo sanguíneo.…”

“…Os dados encontrados na literatura sustentam que há aumento do fluxo sanguíneo nos momentos iniciais, dia 2 e 4 após a quimioterapia com posterior diminuição do fluxo sanguíneo gradativamente no decorrer da fase ativa da quimioterapia (WILDER-SMITH, 2007). Esta alteração bifásica do fluxo sanguíneo pode está relacionada a patofisiologia MO (MILSTEIN et al, 2009;MILSTEIN et al, 2010;SCARDINA;CACIOPPO;MESSINA, 2014;WILDER-SMITH, 2007). Estes resultados são similares aos encontrados no presente estudo.…”
