Ventilator-induced pulmonary interstitial emphysema treated with lobectomy in a preterm infant

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2020
The incidence of neonatal barotrauma has decreased significantly with the use of surfactant for the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome in the preterm and has been greatly aided by less invasive ventilation as in high-frequency ventilators ...

Alveolar and interstitial disease in chronic smoker presenting as combined pulmonary fibrosis with emphysema: Double trouble!

open access: yesAnnals of Medical Science and Research, 2023
Tobacco smoke exposure causes diverse pulmonary manifestations with involvement of alveolar, interstitial, and vascular diseases due to inflammatory pathology apart from more lethal lung cancer. Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema is a heterogenous

MALIGNANT PULMONARY INTERSTITIAL EMPHYSEMA

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 1967
SUMMARY A 36-year-old man developed malignant pulmonary interstitial emphysema following a fall. The mechanism of causation of the condition in which air leaks into the interstitium of the lung to obstruct pulmonary blood flow and embarrass ventilation is discussed. Possible lines of treatment are reviewed and the successful treatment of this patient

A case of diffuse persistent pulmonary emphysema: When is difficult the diagnosis?

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2016
Persistent pulmonary interstitial emphysema (PPIE) is a rare condition that occurs in both preterm and term infants. It is thought to arise from a disruption of the basement membrane of the alveolar wall allowing air entry into the interstitial space ...

Pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The current paradigm for the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is that chronic airflow limitation results from an abnormal inflammatory response to inhaled particles and gases in the lung. Airspace inflammation appears to be different
