Estudo prospectivo do derrame pleural pós-cirurgia abdominal e dos fatores de risco associados: avalição por ultra-sonografia

Abstract: MOTIVAÇÃO: Derrame pleural é alteração pulmonar comumente observada em exames de imagem após cirurgias abdominais eletivas, sem repercussão clínica na maioria dos enfermos, devendo ser individualizada das complicações pulmonares que requerem tratamento. Sua incidência, bem como os indicadores de risco, são desconhecidos em nosso meio. OBJETIVO: Determinar, pela ultra-sonografia, a incidência de derrame pleural pós-operatório (DPPO) em cirurgias abdominais eletivas e averiguar suas possíveis associações com fat… Show more

“…Rossi and Bromberg also reported finding a high rate of pleural effusion through ultrasound examinations during the postoperative period following elective abdominal surgery (70.3%). Most of their cases were asymptomatic and self-limiting (Rossi and Bromberg 2005 ). Pleural effusions might result from sodium and water retention, and they may be aggravated by the relative cardiac decompensation typically found in the elderly (Nielsen et al 1989 ).…”

“…However, we believe that the percentage of pleural effusion in the postoperative period is higher when also considering the clinically non-important ones. A group from São Paulo found a high rate of pleural effusion in the postoperative period (70.3%) through ultrasound examinations in a study that aimed to attest the sensitivity of this exam 8 . Conditions such as systemic arterial hypertension, heart disease and diabetes mellitus have .…”
