Resumo
Objetivo: avaliar, por meio de uma revisão sistemática, a efetividade da plasmaférese no pré-operatório de timectomia em pacientes com miastenia gravis (MG). Métodos: Foram pesquisadas as bases Medline, Embase, Lilacs, Scopus e Central para busca de estudos experimentais e observacionais que avaliaram a plasmaférese no pré-operatório de timectomia em pacientes com MG. Grupo com plasmaférese (PPG) e grupo sem plasmaférese (NPPG). Os desfechos avaliados foram: crise miastênica, mortalidade, pneumonia, sangramento, uso de ventilação mecânica, tempo de permanência hospitalar e em unidade de terapia intensiva (UTI). Utilizou-se para metanálise o software RevMan 5.3 fornecido pela Colaboração Cochrane. Resultados: O número total de pacientes avaliados em seis estudos selecionados foi de 323 (143 PPG e 180 NPPG). A plasmaférese pré-operatória não diminuiu a crise miastênica (RR 0,36, IC 95% 0,08 a 1,66; I2 = 44%; 5 estudos, 243 pacientes). Também não houve alteração na mortalidade (RR 0,7, IC 95% 0,11 a 4,62; I² = 0%; 3 estudos, 172 pacientes) ou taxa de pneumonia (RR 0,28, IC 95% 0,07 a 1,09; I2 = 27%; 5 estudos, 272 pacientes). Os pacientes do grupo NPPG sangraram menos em comparação com o grupo PPG (diferença média 34,34 ml, IC 95% 24,93 a 43,75; I² = 0%). Foi avaliada a necessidade de ventilação mecânica em três estudos (213 pacientes) e a permanência hospitalar e em UTI em dois (121 pacientes), que não foram adequados para realizar a metanálise devido à alta heterogeneidade nesses desfechos. A análise dos subgrupos mostrou que a realização da plasmaférese no pré-operatório de pacientes com doença grave (Osserman III e IV) diminuiu a crise miastênica no pós-operatório (RR 0,12, IC 95% 0,02 a 0,65; I² = 63%). Conclusão: A plasmaférese pode reduzir as crises miastênicas pós-operatória em pacientes com doença grave (Osserman III e IV), mas pode produzir pouca ou nenhuma diferença em pacientes com doença de expressão clínica leve (Osserman II).
Objective: to evaluate, through a systematic review, the efficacy of plasmapheresis in the preoperative thymectomy in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). Methods: Medline, Embase, Lilacs, Scopus and Central databases were searched for experimental and observational studies that evaluated plasmapheresis in the preoperative period of thymectomy in MG patients. Plasmapheresis group (PPG) and without plasmapheresis group (NPPG). The outcomes evaluated were: myasthenic crisis, mortality, pneumonia, bleeding, use of mechanical ventilation, length of hospital stay and intensive care unit (ICU) stay. The RevMan 5.3 software provided by the Cochrane Collaboration was used for meta-analysis. Results: The total number of patients evaluated in six included studies was 323 (143 PPG and 180 NPPG). Preoperative plasmapheresis did not decrease the myasthenic crisis (RR 0.36, 95% CI 0.08 to 1.66, I2 = 44 %; 5 studies, 243 patients). There was also no change in mortality (RR 0.7, 95% CI 0.11 to 4.62, I² = 0%; 3 studies, 172 patients) or pneumonia (RR 0.28, 95% CI 07 to 1.09, I2 = 27%; 5 studies 272 patients). Patients in the NPPG group bleed less in comparison to the PPG group (mean difference 34.34 ml, 95% CI 24.93 to 43.75, I² = 0%). We evaluated the need for mechanical ventilation in three studies (213 patients) and hospital and ICU stay evaluated in two studies (121 patients), but they were not adequate to perform the meta-analysis due to the high heterogeneity among these outcomes. Subgroup analysis showed that the preoperative plasmapheresis performed in patients with severe disease (Osserman III and IV) decreased the myasthenic crisis postoperatively (RR 0.12, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.65, I² = 63 %). Conclusion: Plasmapheresis may reduce postoperative myasthenic crisis in patients with severe disease (Osserman III and IV), but may produce little or no difference in patients with mild clinical expression disease (Osserman II).
