1
Classic histologic features of exogenous lipoid pneumonia have not been identified in tissue samples.
2
These HRCT findings with appropriate inquiries could be useful for diagnosis of exogenous lipoid pneumonia.
3
Objective: To evaluate the high-resolution CT findings in 17 children with exogenous lipoid pneumonia following aspiration of mineral oil.
4
The aim of this study was to assess high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings of exogenous lipoid pneumonia.
5
High-resolution computed tomography was obtained in 25 patients with proven exogenous lipoid pneumonia resulting from aspiration of squalene (derived from shark liver oil).
6
Background: Exogenous lipoid pneumonia is a rare disorder caused by aspiration of mineral, vegetable and animal oils.
