Abstract
We report the case of a patient that developed hepatic hydrothorax as the first complication of liver cirrhosis. Due to the lack of response to diuretics, pleurodesis and TIPS, treatment with octreotide was started with resolution of hydrothorax. To the best of our knowledge, this is the third reported case of refractory hepatic hydrothorax with complete and sustained response to octreotide.
Describimos el caso de una paciente que presentó un hidrotórax como primera manifestación de una cirrosis hepática. Ante la ausencia de respuesta al tratamiento diurético, a la realización de una pleurodesis y a la colocación de una derivación portosistémica percutánea intrahepática, se inició tratamiento con octreótido con lo que se obtuvo la resolución del mismo. Se trata del tercer caso publicado en la literatura de hidrotórax hepático refractario con respuesta completa y mantenida al tratamiento con octreótido.
