Fístula pleurocutánea secundaria a empiema

Abstract

Introducción: La fístula pleurocutánea es una rara entidad que aparece como complicación de traumatismos torácicos, de la cirugía pleuro pulmonar o procesos infecciosos que afectan el espacio pleural tales como el empiema. Objetivo: Describir hallazgos clínico imagenológicos de un paciente con fístula pleurocutánea secundaria a empiema. Caso clínico: Paciente masculino de 56 años de edad, blanco, de procedencia rural, fumador inveterado y consumidor habitual de bebidas alcohólicas, con antecedentes patológicos personales de neumonías extrahospitalarias que requirieron hospitalización por aparición de complicaciones pleurales. Acudió al servicio de medicina interna del Hospital "Vladimir Ilich Lenin" porque desde hacía dos meses notó un agujero debajo de la axila derecha, por el cual drenaba líquido fétido. Los estudios imagenológicos realizados incluyeron fistulografía y tomografía axial computarizada. El diagnóstico clínico imagenológico fue fístula pleurocutánea. El paciente ingresó en el servicio de Medicina para cumplir tratamiento antimicrobiano; se le realizaron procederes intervencionistas diagnósticos y terapéuticos; evolucionó con complicaciones y falleció. La fístula pleurocutánea es una complicación de difícil manejo para el médico de asistencia, pues no siempre suelen resolver con los métodos tradicionales de tratamiento y requiere períodos prolongados de curación. Conclusiones: La fístula pleurocutánea es infrecuente y de difícil manejo. El diagnóstico de certeza se realiza a través de la fistulografía.
