Significados de lipoid pneumonia em inglês

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.

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