Resumo

O paciente desenvolveu linforragia na região inguinal direita, depois de ponte aorto-bifemoral com enxerto de dácron®. Não respondeu ao tratamento conservador com cuidados locais e compressão. Foi realizado exame de ultra-sonografia Doppler, que evidenciou grande linfocele (6,4 x 3,36 x 6,1 cm), tratada pelo esvaziamento da loja por aspiração e injeção de cola de fibrina (1,6 mL) em seu interior. O paciente se recuperou sem intercorrências e sem recidiva, após 3 meses de seguimento.

Abstract

The patient developed lymphatic drainage in the right groin after an aortobifemoral bypass with Dacron® graft. Conservative treatment with local wound care and compression was unsuccessful. Duplex scan showed a 6.4 x 3.36 x 6.1 cm lymphocele, which was treated by aspiration and injection of fibrin glue (1.6 mL). The patient recovered uneventfully and without recurrence after a 3-month follow-up.

Keywords
