A NEW TREATMENT FOR UNILATERAL RECURRENT HYDROTHORAX DURING CAPD

Jannis Vlachojannis, Ivar Boettcher, Lothar Brandt and Wilhelm Schoeppe

From the 2. Medizinische Klinik, Wilhelm-Epstein-Str. 2,6000 Frankfurt.

A 46-year-old woman undergoing CAPD developed a recurring right sided hydrothorax. Instillation of tetracycline HCI and triamcinolone acetonide did not correct the condition. However application of a fibrin adhesive (Tissucol) made it possible to achieve permanent adhesion of the pleural layers. This paper descrubes the method in detail.

KEY WORDS: CAPD; hydrothorax; fibrin adhesion technique.
