Electronic Cigarette (EC) is a device that simulates a conventional cigarette and allows inhale nicotine and other substances in a vaporized form, without combustion of snuff. Because it´s marketing and availability, it´s use comes with a steady increase. It is used worldwide to reduce the consumption of snuff, achieve their abandonment or in public places where consumption of conventional cigarettes is prohibited. Harmful effects on health: The use of EC has been associated with lipoid pneumonia and irritation of the upper airway as well as nicotine toxicity. It also contains carcinogens such as nitrosamines, formaldehyde and metals such as nickel, chromium and lead substances. It increases the airway resistance these effect is similar to those that occur after inhaling smoke snuff. Effective smoking cessation: At the moment, there is no scientific evidence with adequate methodology and statistical power that have demonstrated the effectiveness of EC in smoking cessation. Conclusions: According to the available evidence, it seems that EC encompasses some health risks while its effectiveness in smoking cessation has not been proved yet. Introducción: El tabaquismo es la primera causa evitable de muerte en el mundo. El cigarrillo electrónico (CE), es un dispositivo que simula a los cigarrillos convencionales y permite inhalar nicotina y otras sustancias de forma vaporizada, sin combustión de tabaco. Su conocimiento por parte de la población general, así como su comercialización y consumo viene en constante aumento. Es utilizado en todo el mundo con el objetivo de disminuir el consumo de tabaco, lograr su abandono o poder utilizarlo en lugares públicos donde el consumo de cigarrillos convencionales está prohibido. Efectos nocivos sobre la salud: Su utilización se ha asociado a neumonía lipoidea e irritación de la vía aérea superior y toxicidad por nicotina. Presenta sustancias cancerígenas como nitrosaminas, formaldeido y metales como el niquel, cromo y plomo. Aumenta la resistencia de la vía aérea, efecto que es similar al que se produce después de la inhalación del humo del tabaco. Eficacia para dejar de fumar: No hay hasta el momento trabajos que demuestren con poder estadístico y buena metodología que este producto sea eficaz para dejar de fumar.  Conclusiones: De acuerdo a la evidencia disponible, no podemos descartar que el uso del cigarrillo electrónico no tenga riesgos para la salud. La seguridad y eficacia de los cigarrillos electrónicos como ayuda para el abandono del hábito tabáquico no han sido demostradas. Universidad Nacional Córdoba. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas.
