Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis: A Review

Fetal and Pediatric Pathology, 2001
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a disorder that rapidly leads to respiratory failure, because the alveolar spaces fill with a lipid-rich, proteinaceous material that impedes gas exchange. The pathogenesis of this life-threatening process remained an enigma for decades.

How to do whole lung lavage for treatment of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in infants

European Journal of Pediatrics, 1999
We investigated the histological and molecular characteristics of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) in two siblings (a brother and sister) who did not exhibit respiratory distress at birth but who each developed symptoms during infancy. Histological analysis of lung specimens showed positive staining for surfactant proteins in both patients.

Asymptomatic pulmonary alveolar proteinosis

The American Journal of Medicine, 1960
Abstract A case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is described, and corroborative data including representative radiographs and photomicrographs of the biopsy specimen of the lung are presented. The majority of patients discussed in the original monograph by Rosen et al. were symptomatic.

Phospholipids in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis

Biological Mass Spectrometry, 1974
Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry has been used to identify the phosphate diester backbones of two classes of phospholipids previously unrecognized in washings from human lungs. Washings were analyzed from two patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and also from two pairs of normal lungs washed postmortem.

Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis

Pediatrics, 1997
To the Editor. I wish to congratulate Dr Mahut and colleagues1 for their excellent review. The authors report the necessity to use extracorporeal oxygenation to perform successful massive lung lavage in infants. My colleagues and I have successfully used total lung lavage in infants and pediatric patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.2-5 Two ...
