Abstract：Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of the capillary leak syndrome with electrolyte disturb-ance for reducing its misdiagnosis and mistreatment rate. Methods The clinical data of 2 patients with capillary leak syn-drome in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Results Two patients were manifested as running a fever. One patient showed the two episodes of hyponatremia, hypokalemia, anoxemia and large pale blooded liquid from the brachial tube, and then was relieved after the liquid income control and hydroxyethyl starch, and the patient finally died after his condition deteri-orated. The other patient was also found to have large pale blooded liquid from the brachial tube with anoxemia, hyponatremia and hypokalemia without using liquid income control and hydroxyethyl starch, but also died after all attempts failed. Conclu-sion The phenomenon of capillary leak syndrome with hyponatremia and other electrolyte disturbance has special characteris-tics, and giving the liquid and electrolyte randomly may worsen the patient's condition.
