Fagocitosis del polietileno Estudio con microscopía electrónica

Abstract

La fagocitosis de las partículas de polietileno (PE) liberadas de los implantes protésicos es efectuada por células macrofágicas. En este trabajo estudiamos con microscopía electrónica de transmisión las alteraciones intracelulares inducidas por las partículas de PE. Se han tomado muestras de la interfase situada entre el cotilo de PE y su lecho óseo en 8 casos de recambio de cotilo que habían sido tratados mediante artroplastia total de cadera con cotilo de polietileno roscado de Endler y que habían desarrollado migración por osteólisis. Se han identificado como componentes del tejido granulomatoso reactivo al PE los siguientes componentes: macrófagos polinucleados, macrófagos mononucleados, linfocitos, fibroblastos y células endoteliales capilares. Hemos observado depósitos de PE extracelulares en gran cantidad alternando con fibras de colágeno. La microscopía electrónica de transmisión permite identificar macrófagos activados con gran producción de vesículas lisosómicas. El PE intracelular acumulado en fagolisosomas presenta imágenes poligonales, prismáticas y rectangulares.

High density polyethylene particles released from the articular surfaces of joint prostheses are phagocytosed by macrophaged. We study the intracelular changes provoked by polyethylene particles using transmitted-light electronic microscopy. Samples from the bone-implant interface were taken from 8 socket replacements that had been operated with total hip arthroplasty using Endler polyethylene threaded socket that failed with migration. As components of the reactived fibrous tissue, the following components were identified: polinuclear macrophages, mononuclear macrophages, lymphocytes, fibroblasts, and capilar endotelial cells. We have found many aggregates of extracellular polyethylene mixed with collagen libres. Transmitted-light electronic microscopy helps to identify actived macrophages with an increased lisosomes production. The aggregated intracellular polyethylene has polygonal, prismatic and rectangular shapes in fagolisosomes.
