ABSTRACT

La toxicidad pulmonar es un efecto adverso poco frecuente de la amiodarona cuyo diagnóstico es una tarea complicada ya que debe tenerse una alta sospecha clínica y descartar otras patologías que pueden confundirse con este proceso. Es importante que el diagnóstico sea precoz para poder instaurar un tratamiento temprano y evitar la progresión a fibrosis pulmonar. Presentamos un caso que manifiesta la importancia de un diagnóstico preciso y la buena evolución del mismo tras la retirada del fármaco y la instauración de tratamiento. (AU)


Pulmonary toxicity is a rare adverse effect of amiodarone, the diagnosis of which is a complicated task since a high clinical suspicion must be maintained and other pathologies that may be confused with this process must be ruled out. It is important that the diagnosis is early to be able to establish early treatmentand avoid progression to pulmonary fibrosis. We present a case that shows the importance of an accurate diagnosis and its good evolution after drug withdrawal and treatment initiation. (AU)
