Fundamento:

la hiperactividad simpática paroxística consiste en episodios autolimitados de hipertensión arterial, taquicardia, taquipnea, hiperhidrosis, disminución del nivel de conciencia, aumento del tono muscular con postura en extensión, hipertermia, sialorrea y midriasis. Con frecuencia se retrasa su reconocimiento lo que incrementa la morbilidad y mortalidad.

Objetivo:

conocer la importancia de un diagnóstico y tratamiento precoz de la enfermedad para mayor supervivencia del paciente afectado.

Presentación del caso:

paciente de 33 años de edad, femenina, que desarrolló una hiperactividad simpática paroxística asociada con hidrocefalia obstructiva.

Conclusiones:

debe sospecharse la enfermedad en pacientes con daño cerebral agudo de diversas causas. El diagnóstico temprano es vital para evitar estudios diagnósticos e intervenciones innecesarias e iniciar un tratamiento rápido y apropiado que modifique la evolución del síndrome.

Background:

paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity consists of self-limited episodes of arterial hypertension, tachycardia, tachypnea, hyperhidrosis, decreased level of consciousness, increased muscle tone with extension posture, hyperthermia, sialorrhea and mydriasis. Frequently their recognition is delayed, which increases morbidity and mortality.

Objective:

to make known the importance of an early diagnosis and treatment of the entity for greater survival of the affected patient.

Case report:

a 33-years-old female patient who developed a paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity associated with obstructive hydrocephalus.

Conclusions:

the entity should be suspected in patients with acute brain damage of various etiologies. Early diagnosis is vital to avoid unnecessary diagnostic studies and interventions and to initiate a rapid and appropriate treatment that modifies the evolution of the syndrome.
