Abstract

Abstract Introduction Haemoptysis is always an alarming symptom but a rather rare event in the recovery ward following an uneventful regional anaesthesia. The aim of this case report is to highlight all possible causes of haemoptysis in an anaesthetist’s daily practice, and to emphasize that tuberculosis is one of the possible causes of haemoptysis and a re-emerging disease. Case Report A young male patient, heavy smoker, submitted for emergency surgery, presented massive haemoptysis after uneventful regional anaesthesia. He was admitted to the ICU and discharged 48 h later. Initial diagnosis was lidocaineinduced cardiomyopathy. He received anti-tuberculosis treatment based on a positive Mantoux test. He completely recovered a year later. Conclusion Since tuberculosis is a re-emerging disease, preoperative evaluation should be more careful.

摘要:咳血一直是一个令人警惕的症状,但在恢复病房后,一个相当罕见的事件,在一个平静的区域麻醉。本病例报告的目的是强调在麻醉师的日常实践中所有可能的咯血原因,并强调结核病是咯血的可能原因之一,也是一种重新出现的疾病。病例报告一个年轻的男性患者,重度吸烟者,提交急诊手术后,表现为大量咯血无意外的区域麻醉。他住进重症监护室,48小时后出院。初步诊断为利多卡因引起的心肌病。他接受了抗结核治疗,因为曼图克斯检测呈阳性。一年后,他完全康复了。结论肺结核是一种复发性疾病,术前评估应更加谨慎。
