Pulmonary Emphysema and Fibrosis
Diseases of the Chest, 19531)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 ...

Pulmonary Interstitial Emphysema
The British Journal of Radiology, 1953Pulmonary 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 ...

Morphogenesis of Pulmonary Emphysema
Diseases of the Chest, 1963A 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
Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2002A 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

TREATMENT OF PULMONARY EMPHYSEMA
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1959The 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.

Pulmonary Interstitial Emphysema
Clinics in Perinatology, 1978Pulmonary 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, 1958Abstract 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 ...

Unilateral Pulmonary “Emphysema”
Radiology, 1959Increased 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.

The Pulmonary Matrix, Glycosaminoglycans and Pulmonary Emphysema
Connective Tissue Research, 1999This paper reviews recent evidence of the effect of intratracheal hyaluronan (HA) to limit the induction of experimental emphysema in hamsters. Experimental emphysema was induced by both neutrophil and pancreatic elastase instilled intratracheally. Emphysema was quantified anatomically by measurement of alveolar mean linear intercept.
