Resumo: Introduction: Fungating wounds (FW) are formed by the infiltration of malignant cells in the skin structure, with local invasion, which occurs as the result of uncontrolled cell proliferation. The signs and symptoms such as odor, pain, bleeding, itching and exudate are observed with great frequency. Objectives: This study aimed to describe the nursing interventions employed to decrease the signs and symptoms of FW. Cases report: This is a series of two cases followed during the dressing change for evaluating FW in relation to staging and symptoms. Different dressings were used according to the characteristics of each FW. The odor was controlled with charcoal dressings, chlorhexidine gluconate 4% and metronidazole. To absorb and contain exudate, we used calcium and sodium alginate fiber and absorptive dressings with charcoal. The bleeding was controlled with sodium and calcium alginate fiber and petrolatum gauze. The pain was measured and controlled by analgesia. Conclusion: FW have individual characteristics and need specialized attention. The association between distinct dressing choices can decrease signs and symptoms.

Los signos y sintomas mas comunes son mal olor, dolor, sangrado, comezon y exudado. Objetivo: Este estudio tuvo como objetivo describir las intervenciones de enfermeria para reducir los signos y sintomas de HT. Reporte de Casos: Dos pacientes fueron acompanados para la evaluacion en relacion al estado previo de la ulcera y el control de senales y sintomas. Diferentes apositos se han utilizado segun las caracteristicas de cada UT. Para el control del mal olor se uso apositos de carbon com plata, degermante clorhexidina y metronidazol. Se utilizo la fibra de alginato de calcio y sodio y apositos absorbentes con carbon activado en la contencion y absorcion del exudado. El sangrado se controlo con fibra de alginato de sodio y calcio y gasa con petrolatum. El dolor se midio y se controlo con la analgesia. Conclusión: Las UT tienen caracteristicas particulares y la necesitan de una atencion especializada. La asociacion entre distintos productos en el tratamiento de las ulceras tumorales puede reducir los signos y sintomas. Introdução: Feridas tumorais (FT) são formadas pela infiltração de células malignas na estrutura da pele, havendo perda da solução de continuidade cutânea em virtude da proliferação celular descontrolada. Sinais e sintomas como odor, dor, sangramento, exsudato e prurido são observados com frequência. Objetivo: Descrever as intervenções de enfermagem empregadas para minimizar sinais e sintomas da FT. Relato de casos: Dois pacientes com FT foram acompanhados para avaliação quanto ao estadiamento da ferida e controle de sinais e sintomas. Diferentes coberturas foram utilizadas nos curativos, de acordo com a demanda de cada FT. Para controle do odor, utilizaram-se carvão ativado, clorexidina degermante e metronidazol. O manejo do exsudato foi realizado por meio do uso de alginato de cálcio e sódio em fibra e curativos absortivos com carvão ativado. O sangramento era controlado com alginato de cálcio e sódio em fibra e gaze embebida em petrolato. A dor foi mensurada e controlada por meio de analgesia. Conclusões: As FT apresentam características peculiares e necessitam de atenção especializada. A associação de coberturas nos curativos possibilitou minimizar sinais e sintomas.INCA2015-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRelato de Casoapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/23210.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2015v61n4.232Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 61 No. 4 (2015): Oct./Nov./Dec.; 373-379Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 61 Núm. 4 (2015): oct./nov./dic.; 373-379Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 61 n. 4 (2015): out./nov./dez.; 373-3792176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/232/145da Silva, Karine Raphaela MissiasBontempo, Priscila de Souza Maggidos Reis, Paula Elaine DinizVasques, Christiane InocêncioGomes, Isabelle PimentelSimino, Giovana Paula Rezendeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:08:10Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/232Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:08:10Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
