Abstract

Twenty three-year-old man had thoracal spinal cord surgery for gunshot injury three months ago. He had right hemiplegia and paraplegia for the past two months. He was admitted with poor performance status and progressive, severe dyspnea. Chest X-ray showed massive pleural effusion on the right side. Thoracentesis showed transudative pleural fluid. Duropleural fistula was considered due to the history of spinal injury and surgery. The presence of cerebrospinal fluid in the pleural fluid was demonstrated by beta-2 transferrin test. After the demonstration of the presence of duropleural fistula on intrathecal contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan surgical management of the duropleural fistula was successfully repaired by duroplasty. This case was presented as a complication of spinal cord injury and neurosurgery duropleural fistula is a very rare reason of massive transudative pleural effusions and the use of the cerebrospinal fluid by beta-2 transferrin in pleural effusion is reported very rare in the literature.

Özet

Yirmi üç yaşında erkek hasta üç ay önce ateşli silah yara- lanması nedeni ile torakal spinal cerrahi geçirmiş idi. Hastanın son iki aydır sağ hemiplejisi ve paraplejisi var idi. Hasta kötü performans statüsü ve ilerleyici, şiddetli nefes darlığı ile başvurdu. Akciğer grafisinde sağ tarafta masif plevral efüzyon izlenmekte idi. Torasentez ile transüdatif plevral sıvı saptandı. Spinal yaralanma ve cerrahi öyküsü nedeni ile dura-plevral fistül düşünüldü. Plevra sıvısında beyin omurilik sıvısının varlığı beta-2 transferrin testi ile gösterildi. Intratekal kontrastlı bilgisayarlı tomografi taramasında dura plevral fistül varlığı gösterildikten sonra fistül, duraplasti işlemi ile başarılı bir şekilde kapatıldı. Bu olgu, spinal cerrahi ve spinal yaralanmalar sonrası bir komplikasyon olarak oluşabilen dura-plevral fistül transü- datif plevral efüzyonun nadir bir nedeni olması ve beyin omurilik sıvısının plevra sıvısında varlığının gösterilme- sinde beta-2 transferrin kullanımı literatürde az sayıda bildirilmesi nedeni ile sunuldu.
