[systemic capillary leak syndrome]
Systemic
capillary
leak
syndrome
is
a
rare
disorder
of
unknown
etiology
and
often
recurrent
episodes
characterized
by
increased
capillary
permeability
that
allows
a
leakage
of
fluid
and
proteins
from
the
circulatory
system
to
the
interstitial
space
leading
to
shock
and
massive
edema
.
The
lack
of
recognition
of
this
disease
may
be
due
to
its
unespecific
signs
and
symptons
of
presentation
,
its
rapid
clinical
progression
and
high
mortality
of
the
acute
episodes
.
General
physicians
are
usually
the
first
to
evaluate
patients
with
this
kind
of
disorder
,
either
in
the
pre-hospital
situation
,
hospital
emergency
units
or
even
(
in
the
milder
cases
)
in
the
health
centers
.
Its
poor
outcome
and
the
improvement
in
the
prognosis
,
if
appropriate
treatment
is
initiated
,
leads
us
to
emphasize
the
importance
of
recognizing
this
pathology
in
order
to
start
the
appropriate
intensive
care
and
emergency
treatment
.
