Diagnosis of spontaneous acute ischemic syndromes

Diagnóstico de los síndromes isquémicos agudos espontáneos

Mazza, Milton E

Resumen:

Diagnosis of spontaneous, acute, ischemic syndromes of the limbs is studied. Positive diagnosis is based on the presence of threeelements: pain, loss of temperature and changes in colour, added to disappearence of pulses. They are classified according to their intensity intolight, medium and severe. Topographic diagnosis is made by clinical procedures and, eventually, by arteriography. Diagnosis of limb viability is of the greatest interest. At times this may be extremely difficult. The most common ethiologies are listed, with stresson the. frequent difficulty of distinguishing between embolism and acute thrombosis. Arteriography is not always necessary in embolism.Conversely, it should be performed in other types of ischemia in arder to establish the surgical technique to be employed.


Se estudia el diagnóstico de los síndromes isquémicos agudos espontáneos de los miembros. El diagnóstico positivo se basa en la presencia dela triada: dolor, enfriamiento y cambios de la coloración sumados a la desaparición de. los pulsos. De acuerdo a la intensidad se clasifican en leves, medianos y severos. El diagnóstico topográfico lo hace la clínica y eventualmente la arteriografía. El diagnóstico de la viabilidad del miembro es de alto interés. En ocasiones tal estimación puede ser muy difícil. Se analizan las etiologías más comunes destacándosela dificultad frecuente de distinguir entre embolia y trombosis aguda. La arteriografía no es siempre necesaria en las embolias.Por el contrario debe practicarse en los otros tipos de isquemia a efectos de adecuar la táctica quirúrgica.
