Abstract
- Background: Thirty-two percent dextran-70 in 10% dextrose is a useful distention medium for hysteroscopic surgery. However, the side effects profile is considerable.<br />Case Report: A young woman underwent hysteroscopic evaluation for menorrhagia. Postoperatively, she suffered severe noncardiogenic pulmonary edema, disseminated intravascular coagulopathy and acute anuric renal failure.<br />Conclusion: Precautions must be taken when using 32% dextran-70 in 10% dextrose to avoid its potentially life-threatening complications.
