Resumen

El síndrome compartimental de la pierna es una complicación rara después de la prostatectomía radical laparoscópica. Varios factores de riesgo circunstanciales combinados entre sí pueden predisponer al síndrome compartimental, entre ellos la obesidad, criterios de enfermedad vascular periférica (edad avanzada, hipertensión, hiperlipemia y diabetes mellitus), la profilaxis de la tromboembolia venosa con compresión mecánica junto con compresión neumática intermitente, la anestesia general-espinal combinada, un tiempo operatorio prolongado en posición de Trendelenburg y la hipotensión sistémica por sangrado intraoperatorio.

Se expone el caso de un varón de 68 años de edad que sufrió síndrome compartimental de la pierna después de una prostatectomía radical laparoscópica por cáncer de próstata, se trata de la patogenia de esta complicación grave y se destacan las medidas preventivas.

Abstract

Well leg compartment syndrome is rare after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. We report a 68-year-old man that developed compartment syndrome after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. There are several circumstantial risk factors associated with LRP that, when combined, may potentially predispose to the development of compartment syndrome, including: obesity, evidence of peripheral vascular disease (advanced age, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes mellitus), thromboembolism prophylaxis with compressive leg wraps together with intermittent pneumatic devices, combined general-spinal anesthesia, prolonged operative time in Trendelenburg position, and systemic hypotension due to intraoperative bleeding. The pathogenesis of this serious complication is discussed and preventive measures are highlighted.
