Popis: |
We present the case of a 63-year-old female patient diagnosed with stage IV epithelial mesothelioma. During the progressive evolution of his illness, frequent evacuation paracentesis was required with regular visits to the Emergency Department. Given the situation, in September 2016, the Radiology and Pneumology Service of the PleurX® catheter was placed in the peritoneal cavity, at the level of the right iliac fossa. The patient presented good tolerance, without needing more paracentesis in the emergency room, and with great benefit in their quality of life. |
