RESUMEN
La fístula pancreaticopleural es una rara entidad que se da en pacientes con historia de pancreatitis crónica. A propósito de un caso en un varón de 40 años en nuestro hospital, hemos realizado una revisión de la bibliografía y hemos encontrado poco más de un centenar de casos descritos en 40 publicaciones. De ellas se concluye que la presentación es atípica, que el síntoma inicial es la disnea y que el diagnóstico se realiza mediante pancreatografía por resonancia magnética, dejando la colangiopancreatografía retrógrada endoscópica para los casos dudosos o con fines terapéuticos. El tratamiento inicialmente es médico y consiste en nutrición parenteral potal y somatostatina o análogos. Si la fístula recidiva o persiste, hay diferentes opciones como la cirugía, la colocación de un stent transpapilar o sonda nasopancreática. Globalmente, la mortalidad de la fístula pleuropancreática es del 5% (AU)
ABSTRACT
Pancreaticopleural fistula is an uncommon clinical entity that appears in patients with a history of chronic pancreatitis. Apropos of the case of a 40-year-old man in our hospital, we reviewed the literature and found 40 publications with little more than 100 patients. All of these publications highlight the atypical presentation with dyspnea as the first symptom and stress that diagnosis is based on magnetic resonance pancreatography. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is used in confusing cases and in planning the optimal surgical approach. Initial treatment should consist of conservative medical therapy, including total parenteral nutrition and somatostatin or its analogues. If the fistula persists or recurs, various options are available such as surgery, placement of a transpapillary pancreatic stent or nasopancreatic tube. The overall mortality rate from pancreaticopleural fistula is approximately 5% (AU)
