Abstract

A proteinose alveolar é uma doença rara caracterizada pelo acúmulo alveolar de material lipoproteinaceo secundário ao processamento anormal de surfactante pelos macrófagos. O gold standard do tratamento consiste na lavagem pulmonar total.

Descrevemos a complexidade do manuseio anestésico de um paciente com proteinose alveolar submetido a uma lavagem unipulmonar.

Por ser uma patologia rara, a experiência no seu manuseio é escassa, pelo que se torna primordial a partilha de experiências com promoção à sua discussão.
