Pulmonary Talcosis From Cosmetic Talcum Powder

open access: closedJAMA - Journal of the American Medical Association, 1972
The habitual use of large amounts of cosmetic talcum powder produced significant pulmonary talcosis in a 39-year-old black truck driver. Pulmonary disease was apparent on his chest roentgenogram, and was initially interpreted as miliary tuberculosis. The patient died from peritonitis following infarction of large segments of small intestine.

Pulmonary Talcosis: Imaging Findings

Lung, 2010
Talc is a mineral widely used in the ceramic, paper, plastics, rubber, paint, and cosmetic industries. Four distinct forms of pulmonary disease caused by talc have been defined. Three of them (talcosilicosis, talcoasbestosis, and pure talcosis) are associated with aspiration and differ in the composition of the inhaled substance.

Inhalational Pulmonary Talcosis

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2004
We describe the high-resolution CT findings in 3 patients with pulmonary talcosis acquired by the inhalation of talc. The predominant abnormalities consisted of small centrilobular and subpleural nodules and conglomerated masses containing focal areas of high attenuation consistent with talc deposition.

Particle size for differentiation between inhalation and injection pulmonary talcosis

Environmental Research, 1980
Abstract Light microscopic measurement of the size of birefringent particles in 11 cases of pulmonary talcosis provides differentiation between injection and inhalation origin. The mean particle diameter (±SD) in inhalation cases was 3.7 ± 2.9 μm and in injection cases was 14.2 ± 9.0 μm ( P 5 μm) should raise the suspicion of injection as the ...
