Os derrames cavitĆ”rios consistem em acumulaƧƵes anormais de lĆquido de natureza variada ou gĆ”s/ar dentro das cavidades corporais, tais como as cavidades pleural, peritoneal, pericĆ”rdica, articular. Neste trabalho, vĆ£o ser apenas abordados os derrames cavitĆ”rios pleural e peritoneal, uma vez que foram os registados com maior frequĆŖncia durante o estĆ”gio curricular.
O diagnóstico etiológico Ć© baseado nas informaƧƵes obtidas na anamnese, no exame fĆsico e nos exames complementares, tais como hemograma, bioquĆmicas, imagiologia e anĆ”lise do lĆquido do derrame, normalmente colhido por toraco ou abdominocentese. As anĆ”lises bioquĆmica e citológica permitem classificar os derrames em transudado, transudado modificado ou exsudado e representam um dos componentes mais importantes de diagnóstico, uma vez que auxiliam na identificação da fisiopatologia responsĆ”vel pela acumulação do lĆquido e podem indicar a necessidade de realização de novos exames complementares.
O estudo de caso teve como objectivo a caracterização de uma amostra de 25 casos de animais diagnosticados com derrames pleural ou peritoneal de acordo com a espĆ©cie, a localização do derrame, os sinais clĆnicos observados, os meios de diagnóstico utilizados, a classificação do derrame e a etiologia subjacente.
Após anĆ”lise dos dados recolhidos, Ć excepção dos derrames hemorrĆ”gicos e gasosos, foi possĆvel confirmar a importĆ¢ncia da classificação do derrame com base nas anĆ”lises bioquĆmica e citológica, uma vez que permitiu chegar a um diagnóstico, principalmente nos casos de derrames neoplĆ”sicos, ou orientar a realização de outros exames complementares.
Nos canĆdeos, a principal causa de derrame pleural e peritoneal observada foi a neoplĆ”sica. Nos felĆdeos, o mesmo se verifica nos derrames pleurais, com destaque para o linfoma mediastĆnico, enquanto na maioria dos derrames peritoneais o diagnóstico foi de PIF. Relativamente aos casos de derrames gasosos, registou-se um caso de pneumotórax traumĆ”tico aberto e um caso de pneumoperitoneu por ruptura intestinal por corpo estranho, ambos em cĆ£es, e apenas um caso de pneumoperitoneu em gato por ruptura do ducto colĆ©doco e intestino delgado com forte suspeita de etiologia traumĆ”tica.

ABSTRACT - Pleural and abdominal effusions and its classification: A study of 25 cases - Cavity effusions consist of abnormal accumulations of fluid of varied nature or gas/air inside body cavities, for example, pleural, abdominal, pericardial and joints. In this work, only pleural and peritoneal effusions will be approached, since these were the two most frequent presentations registered in the clinics. The diagnosis of the underlying etiology was based on information collected from the anamnesis, physical examination and complementary exams such as complete blood count, biochemistry, imaging techniques and analysis of the effusionās, usually collected by toraco or abdominocentesis. Both biochemical and cytological analysis of these fluids enables its classification into transudate, modified transudate or exudates, and represent one of the most important components for a diagnosis, since it allows the identification of the pathological process responsible for liquid accumulation, and can indicate the need to perform more investigation proceedings. The objective of this study case was to characterize a sample of 25 animals diagnosed with pleural or abdominal effusion, by species, effusionās location, clinical signs, means of diagnosis applied, effusion classification and underlying etiology. After analyzing the collected data, with exception of hemorrhagic and gaseous effusions, it was possible to confirm the capital importance of the effusionās classification based on biochemical and cytological analysis once it led to a diagnosis, mainly in cases of neoplastic effusion, or oriented the need to perform auxiliary tests. In dogs, the main cause observed for pleural and peritoneal effusion was of neoplastic nature. The same was in cats concerning pleural effusions, principally mediastinal lymphoma, while the majority of peritoneal effusions where linked to a diagnosis of infectious peritonitis. Concerning gaseous effusions, one case of traumatic open pneumothorax and other of pneumoperitoneum elicited by intestinal rupture by a foreign body, were documented in dogs, and only one case in a cat was documented, of pneumoperitoneum caused by a rupture of the common bile duct and small intestine, with possible traumatic etiology.
