RESUMEN
Los pacientes esplenectomizados o con hipoesplenia son susceptibles a
padecer infecciones y sepsis grave (posesplenectomía). Comunicamos el
caso de un paciente que padeció síndrome de sepsis posesplenectomía
secundario a
Streptococcus pneumoniae siete años después de practicarle
esplenectomía por trombosis mesentérica y daño en la vena esplénica
y antecedente de haberse sometido a trasplante hepático ortotópico. El
síndrome de sepsis posesplenectomía tiene elevada mortalidad, su evolución
es fulminante, las manifestaciones son graves y el pronóstico es
malo. Es fundamental que los enfermos esplenectomizados sean vacunados,
reciban antibióticos profilácticos y atención médica ante cualquier
manifestación de un proceso infeccioso. Es prioritario implementar una
política de salud pública para el desarrollo de guías de seguimiento de
pacientes esplenectomizados y de la profilaxis, diagnóstico y tratamiento
del síndrome de sepsis posesplenectomía, así como difundir entre los
enfermos esplenectomizados y con disfunción esplénica y el grupo médico
tratante programas educativos relacionados con esta enfermedad.
