Nombres alternativos

Fibrosis retroperitoneal idiopática; enfermedad de Ormond

Prevención:

En lo posible, evite el uso prolongado de medicamentos que contengan metisergida, ya que se ha demostrado que causan fibrosis retroperitoneal. La metisergida se utiliza algunas veces para tratar las jaquecas.
