Colangitis Aguda

La colangitis aguda se refiere a la inflamación aguda del sistema de conductos biliares; es una afección potencialmente mortal caracterizada por fiebre, ictericia y dolor Dolor Inflammation abdominal. Esta afección se desarrolla como resultado de la estasis y la infección del tracto biliar. Las posibles complicaciones graves son shock Shock Shock is a life-threatening condition associated with impaired circulation that results in tissue hypoxia. The different types of shock are based on the underlying cause: distributive (↑ cardiac output (CO), ↓ systemic vascular resistance (SVR)), cardiogenic (↓ CO, ↑ SVR), hypovolemic (↓ CO, ↑ SVR), obstructive (↓ CO), and mixed. Types of Shock séptico, absceso hepático y disfunción multiorgánica. El diagnóstico se confirma mediante ultrasonido (u otros estudios de imagen hepatobiliares) que muestran dilatación del conducto biliar común o cálculos biliares, pruebas de función hepática elevadas y leucocitosis. El tratamiento incluye estabilización hemodinámica, antibióticos de amplio espectro, drenaje biliar urgente y tratamiento de la etiología subyacente (e.g., colecistectomía por cálculos biliares).
