Systemic capillary leak syndrome: recognition prevents morbidity and mortality.
[systemic capillary leak syndrome]
Idiopathic
systemic
capillary
leak
syndrome
(
SCLS
)
is
extremely
rare
but
carries
a
high
morbidity
and
mortality
.
The
diagnosis
is
made
clinically
by
a
classic
triad
of
hypotension
,
hypoalbuminaemia
and
haemoconcentration
.
There
have
been
recent
advances
in
understanding
the
pathophysiological
basis
for
SCLS
and
in
effective
prophylaxis
.
We
report
a
case
of
SCLS
to
increase
awareness
of
the
condition
and
to
highlight
the
benefits
of
prophylactic
intravenous
immunoglobulin
in
this
condition
.
