Article information
Se describen tres pacientes que desarrollan edema de pulmón asociado a obstrucción de la vía aérea superior. La causa de la obstrucción fue: edema y carcinoma de laringe, edema tras resección de pólipos laríngeos, y oclusión de la glotis por bolo alimenticio. Se revisan los factores que pueden desencadenar edema pulmonar en esta situación.
Three patients presented pulmonary edema associated with upper airways obstruction. The causes for the obstruction were: edema and carcinoma of the larynx; edema following the resection of laryngeal polyps and occlusion of the glotis by a food bolus. The factors which may trigger pulmonary edema under these circumstances are reviewed.
