Lesiones del tracto digestivo superior causadas por la ingestión de cáusticos

Abstract

Fundamento Determinar la localizacion, extension y gravedad de las lesiones producidas por la ingestion de causticos en el tracto digestivo superior y su relacion con el tipo de caustico ingerido, motivo de la ingestion (accidental/voluntario), asi como con sus secuelas y mortalidad. Pacientes Y Metodo Se estudiaron 158 pacientes (74 varones y 84 mujeres) con una edad media de 47 anos (rango, 14- 97 anos) que acudieron a nuestro hospital por ingestion de causticos durante el periodo 1993-1999, y que fueron valorados mediante endoscopia oral en las primeras 24 h. La gravedad de las lesiones se valoro mediante la clasificacion de Showkat et al. Resultados En 84 casos (53%) se ingirio lejia, en 21 (13%) agua fuerte, en 43 (27%) mezclas o diversos productos y en 10 (6%) no pudo ser aclarado el tipo de caustico ingerido. Las lesiones fueron de grado I en 51 casos (32%), de grado II en 33 enfermos (21%), de grado III en 20 pacientes (13%) y no se hallaron lesiones en 54 casos (34%). El estomago estaba afectado en 91 casos (57,5%), en 72 (45,5%) el esofago y el duodeno en 28 (18%). La ingestion fue voluntaria en 62 casos (39%), accidental en 80 (51%) y no pudo ser aclarada en los 16 restantes (10%). Las lesiones resultaron mas graves en las ingestiones de agua fuerte que en las de lejia (p Conclusiones El caustico ingerido con mayor frecuencia era la lejia. En un porcentaje alto de pacientes (66%) no se produjeron lesiones o estas eran leves. Las lesiones mas graves y con mayores secuelas y mortalidad se produjeron con las ingestiones voluntarias y de agua fuerte. El tramo digestivo afectado con mayor frecuencia, tanto con la ingestion de alcalis (lejia) como de acidos (agua fuerte), fue el estomago.
