Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is an extremely rare cause of massive pulmonary hemorrhage in children. During the acute phase, death due to massive alveolar hemorrhage and subsequent severe respiratory failure. We report two cases of IPH children who developed hypoxemic respiratory failure
A case is presented, of idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis in a female aged 19 years. The clinical onset occurred at the age of 3 years and the evolution was characterized by subfever, dispnoea, coughing and cyanosis. Radiological examination revealed reticulation and uniform distribution of nodules
A 51-year-old man presenting with hemoptysis was admitted to our hospital. Chest radiography revealed air space consolidation in the right lung field. Laboratory data showed anemia, hypoxemia, and no evidence of inflammatory signs, bleeding tendency, renal dysfunction, or collagen vascular diseases.
Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is an uncommon disease found predominantly in pediatric patients. It can produce severe chronic pulmonary injury that results in chronic hypoxemia, pulmonary insufficiency, and progressive pulmonary fibrosis, leading to irreversible pulmonary hypertension and
Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is a rare interstitial lung disease, usually occurring in children or young adults. Although several studies reported on the coexistence of IPH and immune system diseases, the association between these conditions has not been well described. The present study
A 13-year-old girl with controlled coeliac disease who had been on a gluten-free diet for the past 3 months was admitted with respiratory distress and hypoxia for the past week. Chest radiograph and CT scan showed bilateral widespread alveolar shadowing suggestive of a hypersensitive pneumonitis.
BACKGROUND
Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is a rare disease of unknown etiology characterized by hemoptysis, diffuse pulmonary infiltration, and anemia. Diagnosis requires a detailed clinical history and transbronchial lung biopsy (TLB).
RESULTS
A 19-year-old man developed progressive
BACKGROUND
Pulmonary hemosiderosis is a rare and complex disease in children. A previous study from the French RespiRare® network led to two important findings: 20% of the children presented with both pulmonary hemosiderosis and Down syndrome (DS), and at least one tested autoantibody was found
OBJECTIVE
Previously, IPH patients have been reported to have an average survival of 2.5 years. However, at our institution, many IPH patients have survived longer than that. Therefore, we conducted this study to determine the clinical course and current mortality of pediatric IPH patients treated
During repeated exposures of rats to hypergravity two stages of catabolic and adaptive developments in red blood were distinguished. The first stage that lasted about a week was characterized by decrease of resistance and hemolysis of red blood cells, hemosiderosis in the spleen, circulation hypoxia
A nine-year-old girl was hospitalized because of hypoxemia and anemia. Antibasement-membrane antibodies were present in the serum, but there was no renal involvement suggestive of Goodpasture's glomerulonephritis. Biopsy of the lung showed pulmonary hemosiderosis. In ultrastructural analysis, no
BACKGROUND
Heart disease secondary to chronic anemia and hemosiderosis remains the major cause of morbidity and mortality in thalassemic patients. Chronic anemia and the tissue hypoxia it induces impair free fatty acid oxidation and ATP production in myocardial cells. The use of L-carnitine, a
We reviewed clinical data, autopsy reports, and microscopic slides on 10 patients with sleep apnea/obesity hypoventilation syndrome (SA/OHS) to define the cardiopulmonary pathological features and establish clinicopathologic correlations. Ten obese (>136 kg) patients without SA/OHS were studied as
OBJECTIVE: To report 21 yrs of experience with pediatric flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy in infants and children, explore newer applications, delineate potential complications, and make recommendations for its future application. DESIGN: Retrospective review. SETTING: A 20-bed pediatric critical
Ten infants and children suffering from Thalassaemia major, proven by clinical, hematological and biochemical criteria, were subjected to intestinal biopsy. Specimens were studied for histological and histochemical patterns. The histological picture showed shortening and fusion of villi with
