OBJECTIVE
To study the safety and effectiveness of bilateral sequential whole lung lavage in the same treatment session for pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.
METHODS
Twelve times bilateral sequential whole lung lavage in the same treatment session were performed under general anaesthesia using a
The article deals with results of morphological and electron-microscopy studies of the lungs in experimental pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in rats. The disease was reproduced in experiments on 500 animals by means of chronic inhalation of electro-welding copper-containing aerosols, condensations
Objective: To evaluate the safety of the procedures of whole lung lavage(WLL) for pulmonary alveolar proteinosis(PAP) in perioperative period. Methods: In this retrospective study, we collected clinical data from 78 WLL procedures of PAP patients from January 2006 to June 2016 in Guangzhou Institute
BACKGROUND
Whole lung lavage is the most effective method to treat pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP), and most potential complications occur often during the lavage process, but few happen after lavage. Theoretically, pulmonary edema would be more common after whole lung lavage. However, no such
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is characterized by the accumulation of surfactant derived material in the lung of patients. PAP is rare in children. The patient presented with respiratory failure. In the history she was diagnosed with agammaglobulinemia at 8 months of age and has been treated
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) may develop in a primary (idiopathic) form, chiefly during middle age, or less commonly in the setting of inhalational exposure, hematologic malignancy, or immunodeficiency. Current research supports the theory that PAP is the result of pathophysiologic
We describe the case of a child aged 11 months with vitamin D intoxication and hypercalcemia, who developed acute renal failure and dyspnea. Chest X-rays showed interstitial changes compatible with either pulmonary alveolar proteinosis or pulmonary edema. The hypercalcemia suggested the possibility
Ground-glass opacity (GGO) is a common, nonspecific imaging finding on chest computed tomography that may occur in a variety of pulmonary diseases. GGO may be the result of partial filling of alveolar spaces, thickening of the alveolar walls or septal interstitium, or a combination of partial
We report a patient with end-stage renal disease status after two renal transplantations. Milky-like ascites was noted since the immunosuppressant agent was switched to sirolimus (1 mg/day). Chylous ascites was diagnosed owing to the triglyceride of dialysate to serum being 15.98:15.99. Series
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is responsible for the current outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Although imaging should not be used for first-line screening or diagnosis, radiologists need to be aware of its imaging features, and those of common
