Significados de lipoid en inglés

Classic histologic features of exogenous lipoid pneumonia have not been identified in tissue samples.

These HRCT findings with appropriate inquiries could be useful for diagnosis of exogenous lipoid pneumonia.

Instead, lipoid pneumonia is an immune response in which fats build up in the lungs.

Background: Exogenous lipoid pneumonia is a rare disorder caused by aspiration of mineral, vegetable and animal oils.

High-resolution CT findings of lipoid pneumonia in children taking mineral oil for constipation have been rarely reported.

As microscopic examination had revealed severe pulmonary lesions, lipoid pneumonia was considered as a contributing factor to death.

Objective: To evaluate the high-resolution CT findings in 17 children with exogenous lipoid pneumonia following aspiration of mineral oil.

The aim of this study was to assess high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings of exogenous lipoid pneumonia.

More than 250 cases of this disorder have been described in the literature, but occurrence of lipoid proteinosis in siblings is very rare.

High-resolution computed tomography was obtained in 25 patients with proven exogenous lipoid pneumonia resulting from aspiration of squalene (derived from shark liver oil).

Lipoid proteinosis is a rare autosomal recessive condition affecting the majority of organ systems, but predominantly involving skin and mucous membranes.

Many pathologists assume that haemolysis or cytolysis is due to a liquefaction of certain fatty or fat-like compounds, the so-called lipoids, in the cell.

Lipoid proteinosis is presented by varying degrees of skin scars, beaded papules along the eyelid margins, variable signs of hoarseness of voice and respiratory disorders.
