REYES JUSTINIANO, Andres  e  GUTIERREZ CHOQUE, Bismar Jorge. Idiopathic edema. Case report and literature review. Cuad. - Hosp. Clín. [online]. 2017, vol.58, n.1, pp.38-41. ISSN 1562-6776.

Idiopathic edema is a diagnosis of exclusion, characterized by the accumulation of fluid in interstitial tissue in premenopausal women in the absence of cardiac, renal or hepatic pathology. Typically laboratories and complementary studies are normal. Treatment is Spironolactone due to concomitant secondary hyperaldosteronism. If not effective, it can be added or changed to a thiazide diuretic at the lowest effective dose. Resistance to this pharmacological group is frequent.
