Resumen

Se presenta un paciente afecto de SiH y FPID idiopática. El concepto de silicosis como enfermedad exclusivamente pulmonar es revisado, concluyéndose en que, a pesar de que la afectación extrapulmonar es rara, la silicosis debe ser considerada como enfermedad diseminada. Se hace especial hincapié en las alteraciones hepáticas producidas por la sílice, revisándose la literatura en este sentido.

El objetivo primordial del trabajo es averiguar si existe relación entre silicosis y FPID. Aunque no hay pruebas contundentes sobre la conexión de ambas entidades, el hecho de que las dos participen de fenómenos inmunológicos hasta cierto punto similares induce a pensar que existe relación entre las mismas.

Summary

The authors present the case of a patient affected with hepatic silicosis and idiopathic diffuse interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. They review the concept of silicosis as an exclusively pulmonary disease concliiding that, although extrapulmonary afFectation is rare, silicosis must be considered as a disseminated disease. They especially emphasize the hepatic alterations produced by silica. and review the medial bibliography.

The primary objetive of the work is to find out if a relation between silicosis and DIPF exists. Although there is no definitipe proff about the connection between both entities, the fact that both participate in immunological phenomena, similar to a certain point, leads the authors to think that a relation between them exists.
