  • hydromediastinum and bilateral Hydrothorax after right subclavian vein catheterization a case report
    Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Hun Ju Yang, Young Ju Kim, Jung Ha Cho, Choon Kyu Cho
    Abstract:

    In many clinical settings, patients undergoing major surgery and patients with critical illness or cancer routinely receive a central venous catheter (CVC). Although several complications including hematoma formation, hemothorax, Hydrothorax, chylothorax and cardiac tamponade with vascular injury are associated with the placement of CVCs, their incidence are not frequent. Especially, hydromediastinum and bilateral Hydrothorax are very rare. We experienced an unusual complication of hydromediastinum and bilateral Hydrothorax by left brachiocephalic vein perforation with misplacement of the cathete r tip after right subclavian vein catheterization.

  • treatment of refractory hepatic Hydrothorax with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt long term results in 40 patients
    European Journal of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2001
    Co-Authors: Volker Siegerstetter, Peter Deibert, A Ochs, Manfred Olschewski, Hubert E Blum, M Rossle
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND/AIMS Hepatic Hydrothorax is a complication of portal hypertension secondary to ascites. In this study, we investigated retrospectively the effects of the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) on hepatic Hydrothorax refractory to diuretic treatment. METHODS Forty patients (Child-Pugh class B, 24 patients; Child-Pugh class C, 16 patients) with Hydrothorax refractory to diuretic treatment, pleurocenteses or pleurodesis were included. The TIPS implantation was successful in all patients, who were then followed for 16 +/- 14 months (range 1 day-54 months). RESULTS TIPS reduced the portosystemic pressure gradient from 26 +/- 6 to 10 +/- 5 mmHg. In the 17 patients whom we followed for 12 months or longer, improvements were found for the Child--Pugh score (8.6 +/- 1.8 v. 6.7 +/- 1.5), serum albumin concentration (3.1 +/- 0.5 v. 3.6 +/- 0.5 g/l), and urinary sodium excretion (22 +/- 29 v. 89 +/- 43 mmol/24 h) (P< 0.05). Two patients developed severe hepatic encephalopathy requiring shunt occlusion. Hydrothorax improved in 82% of patients and resolved in 71% of patients. Fifty per cent of patients developed shunt insufficiency within 7 +/- 9 months, contributing to a probability of relapse-free 1-year survival of 35%. In these patients, shunt revision resulted in a secondary response rate of 82.3%. The 1-year survival was 64%. Both Hydrothorax response and survival showed a significant inverse correlation with age over 60 years (P< 0.01 and P< 0.003, respectively) but not with other biomedical variables. CONCLUSION TIPS is effective for Hydrothorax refractory to diuretic treatment and other standard interventions to bridge the time to transplantation. Patients older than 60 years have a poor response and short survival.
