Systemic Capillary Leak Syndrome

AbstractIdiopathic systemic capillary leak syndrome (ISCLS) is characterized by a triad of hypotension, hemoconcentration and hypoalbuminemia due to a shift of intravascular fluid and albumin to the extravascular area. We describe a hypovolemic patient with hemoconcentration and hypoalbuminemia who was successfully treated with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG). The purpose of this case report is to discuss the clinical management of idiopathic systemic capillary leak syndrome on the background of relevant literature review.

Clarkson’S Disease

A 49-year old male with a past medical history of myocardial infarction and compartment syndromes requiring fasciotomies presented on five occasions with hypovolemic shock. We describe his admissions and presumptive diagnoses which required large volumes of intravenous fluids, admission to intensive care for vasopressors and renal replacement therapy. The presentations were always precipitated by a prodrome of fatigue and pre-syncopal episodes. On his last admission, a diagnosis of Idiopathic systemic capillary leak syndrome (ISCLS), also known as Clarkson’s Disease, was reached. He is currently receiving high dose intravenous immunoglobulins on a monthly basis.

Peripheral Edema

Systemic capillary leak syndrome (SCLS) is a rare but potentially fatal disorder characterized by a loss of fluid and proteins into the interstitial space leading to intravascular hypovolemia up to the point of hypovolemic shock. We report the case of a 64-year-old man with SCLS and multiple hormone abnormalities (primary hypothyroidism, hypoadrenalism, and hypogonadism), deficiency of hormone binding globulins, and hypogammaglobulinemia. The patient was successfully treated with intravenous immunoglobulins, theophylline, and terbutaline. Strikingly, with the dissolution of peripheral edema, hormone levels improved. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of SCLS associated with polyglandular abnormalities.
