Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is a physiopathologic syndrome associating suggestive clinical and imaging features with histopathologic studies showing buds of connective tissue in the lu- men of the distal pulmonary airspace. The aim of the study is a retrospective review of
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is an uncommon pulmonary disorder which is a clinicopathologic syndrome. The typical symptoms include cough, fever and dyspnea. Corticosteroid therapy is effective. Death from progressive disease is infrequent. We report a case of BOOP in a
The treatment of chronic hepatitis C has frequent side effects such as cytopenias and neuropsychiatric symptoms. However, pulmonary toxicity associated with interferon is rarely described. This paper describes the clinical case of a 67-year-old female patient with chronic hepatitis C who presented
We present an unusual case of a patient with chronic hepatitis C who experienced dyspnea, fever, and cough after 2 1/2 months' treatment with interferon. His radiograph demonstrated diffuse pulmonary infiltrates and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid showed an increase in lymphocytes, especially
Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) is characterized by good response to corticosteroids, but frequent relapses after reduction or cessation of treatment are noted. The incidence, risk factors of relapse, and long-term outcomes of patients with COP remain undetermined. Patients with COP from
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is characterized clinically by progressive cough, fever, and dyspnea and pathologically by plugging of the bronchiolar and alveolar lumen with buds of loose connective tissue containing fibroblasts and inflammatory cells. The radiographic
We describe two cases of Behçet's disease in a 37-year-old woman and a 40-year-old woman. Each of these patients developed cryptogenic organizing pneumonia associated with Behçet's disease. Both patients developed fever, cough and pleuritic chest pain during follow-up by our out-patient clinic.
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is a recently described entity characterized by cough, fever and dyspnea. To date, only a few cases have been published in the literature. Currently, the diagnosis is established by open lung biopsy. We hereby present a case of BOOP diagnosed
The association of bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and Evans syndrome (autoimmune pancytopenia) has not been reported previously. We describe the case of a 4-year-old child diagnosed with IDDM and Evans syndrome who presented
A 71-year-old woman with fever and dry cough was admitted to our hospital. Chest computed tomography, bronchoalveolar lavage and transbronchial lung biopsy were performed, and bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) was diagnosed. The patient was treated with corticosteroid, and marked
A 39-year-old woman presented with recurrent acute illness, characterized by high-grade fever, pleuritic chest pain, and unilateral nodular infiltrate on chest radiograph. During the follow-up period, there were six similar episodes, each starting 2 to 3 days prior to her menstrual period and
Three pediatric patients of a cohort of 24 who underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from matched unrelated or mismatched family member donors developed low grade fever and cough between 2 and 3 months after BMT in the absence of clinical GVHD. Imaging studies revealed bilateral
We report a 65-year-old caucasian male, who presented cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) as first manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis. The patient started with fever, myalgias and progressive dyspnea in October 2004. The chest X-ray (CXR) and high resolution computed tomographic scan (HRCT)
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is an uncommon but increasingly recognized pulmonary entity that usually presents with symptoms of dyspnea, cough, and fever. The medical literature describes rare cases of hemoptysis in BOOP, with very small quantities of blood expectorated. We
