Falsa asma â A propósito de um caso clínico

Abstract

Resumo: A maioria dos bócios mediastínicos são extensões de bócios cervicais. Geralmente os doentes são do sexo feminino e só muito raramente apresentam sintomas4. As queixas mais frequentemente relatadas são sensação de âmassa cervicalâ, dispneia, disfagia e tosse1.Os autores relatam o caso de uma doente de 67 anos, que recorreu ao serviço de urgência por queixas de dispneia, desconforto e sensação de aperto cervical anterior. O quadro descrito tinha alguns meses de evolução e havia agravamento na semana prévia. A doente referiu antecedentes de asma brônquica, para a qual estava medicada, mas constatou-se que se tratava de um bócio mergulhante.Rev Port Pneumol 2009; XV (6): 1205-1209 Abstract: Most mediastinal goiters are extensions of cervical goiters. Patients are generally female and only occasionally have symptoms4. Patients most commonly complain of a mass-like sensation, dyspnoea, dysphagia and cough1. The authors describe the case of a 67 year-old female who presented at the emergency room with dyspnoea, anterior cervical discomfort and tightness which had onset a few months prior but which had worsened in the last week. The patient cited a history of bronchial asthma, for which she was under medication, but the true diagnosis was mediastinal goiter.Rev Port Pneumol 2009; XV (6): 1205-1209 Palavras-chave: Bócio mediastínico, compressão traqueal, asma, Key-words: Mediastinal goiter, tracheal compression, asthma
