Pulmonary Emphysema and Fibrosis

Diseases of the Chest, 1953
1)Thirty-seven patients with pulmonary emphysema and/or fibrosis have been reviewed. The outstanding symptoms are dyspnea, cyanosis and cough. The main findings on examination are barrel-shaped chest with limited respiratory excursion, hyper-resonance on percussion, hypertrophy of the auxiliary respiratory muscles and decreased pulmonary function ...

Hereditary Pulmonary Emphysema

Chest, 2002
To further elucidate the etiology of spontaneous pneumothorax (SP), a study was made of three nonsmoking patients who had experienced several episodes of chest radiograph-verified familial SP (FSP) and 11 unaffected relatives, 5 of whom were smokers and 6 of whom were never-smokers. Fourteen healthy subjects without SP served as a control group.

Pulmonary Interstitial Emphysema

The British Journal of Radiology, 1953
Pulmonary interstitial emphysema occurs more often than is generally realised. It can be found after severe contusion of the chest cage in the absence of rib fractures and it is frequently associated with pulmonary haemorrhage. Radiological evidence of pulmonary interstitial emphysema may be given not only indirectly by the presence of mediastinal ...

Pulmonary interstitial emphysema

Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2002
A 45-year-old man had a C4-C7 burst fracture while swimming. After he underwent laminectomy with C4-6 fusion, he had acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) necessitating mechanical ventilation. Because of clinical suspicion of a pulmonary embolism, a computed tomography scan was obtained, and although it did not demonstrate a pulmonary embolism, it

Morphogenesis of Pulmonary Emphysema

Diseases of the Chest, 1963
A resume of a continuing program of study of pulmonary emphysema is presented. An orderly sequence was observed in alveolar septa of emphysematous human lungs proceeding from simple inflammation to dissolution on one hand or interstitial alveolar fibrosis on the other.

Pulmonary Interstitial Emphysema

Clinics in Perinatology, 1978
Pulmonary interstitial emphysema is an effusion of intrapulmonary gases which develops outside of the normal air passages, and inside the connective tissue of the peribronehovascular sheaths, interlobular septa, as well as the visceral pleura. Pathophysiology, roentgen findings, and clinical aspects are presented, and therapeutic precautions that have ...

The pathogenesis of pulmonary emphysema

The American Journal of Medicine, 1958
Abstract An outline of previous work on the pathological anatomy of emphysema and the natural history of pulmonary inflammation is presented, with the aim of producing a satisfying account of the pathogenesis of emphysema. With a clear conception of the normal structure and function of the bronchial tree in mind, it is apparent that complete ...

TREATMENT OF PULMONARY EMPHYSEMA

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1959
The etiological diagnosis is of basic importance in patients with emphysema because the distinction between primary and secondary types decides the plan of treatment. The general aim of treatment is to keep the patient active, to preserve as much lung tissue as possible, and to maintain comfort.

Unilateral Pulmonary “Emphysema”

Radiology, 1959
Increased radiolucency of one lung associated with decreased prominence of its hilar and pulmonary vascular markings is observed most commonly in obstructive emphysema due to occlusion of a main or lobar bronchus by a mass or foreign body and in compensatory emphysema following collapse of a pulmonary lobe or segment.
