RESUMEN
A number of drug administered during anesthesia can provoke pathologic response by immunologic or nonimmunologic mechanisms. Known drugs involved in hypersensitivity reactions are muscle relaxants, local anesthetics, narcotics, barbiturates, contrast media, protamine and antibiotics. Clinical manifestations of anaphylaxis are diverse, but during anesthesia, cardiovascular collapse is predominate. We experienced a case of anaphylactoid reaction with erythema on upper thoracic region, severe hypotension, tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. After defibrillation, the patient was recovered. During follow-up, we knew that this patient was exposed aprotinin repeatedly, and suspect the possibility of anaphylactoid reaction due to aprotinin.

Reexpansion pulmonary edema(RPE) is a complication of the treatment of lung collapse secondary to pneumothorax, pleural effusion or atelectasis, and generally believed to occur ipsilaterally when a chronically collapsed lung is rapidly reexpanded by evacuation of large amount of air or fluid. Clinical manifestations of RPE are dyspnea, tachypnea, cyanosis, frothy blood-tinged sputum, wet rale, and expiratory wheezing. Hypotension and decrease in organ perfusion can occur. We experienced intraoperative tension pneumothorax probably due to positive pressure ventilation or pleural injury during central venous catheterization through internal jugular vein. And bilateral RPE combined with acute renal failure occurs after spontaneous decompression of tension pneumothorax with chest tube insertion, even with brief duration of lung collapse.
