Pulmonary Talcosis: Imaging Findings
Lung, 2010Talc 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.

A case of intestinal talcosis in a 46-year-old man is reported. At the age of 27, the patient was treated for pulmonary tuberculosis with tablets containing talc (183 g talc per 2,670 g total drug intake) over a period of 28 months. Eighteen years later, the patient was hospitalized for abdominal pain that remained refractory to antacids; he ...

Inhalational Pulmonary Talcosis
Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2004We 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, 1980Abstract 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 ...

Pulmonary Ventilatory Function in Talcosis of Lung
Diseases of the Chest, 1964Pulmonary ventilatory function tests were performed in 20 workers who were engaged in the process of milling or mining of talc and who had clinical and roentgenographic findings compatible with talc pneumoconiosis. These workers were exposed for an average of 23 years to dusts containing predominantly talc admixed with other silicates (tremolite and ...

Fulminant pulmonary intravascular talcosis
Canadian Journal of Respiratory, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine, 2017ABSTRACTPulmonary talcosis is still underrecognized. Two types of lung diseases have been described: talc pneumoconiosis and intravascular pulmonary talcosis. A young woman presenting with acute right ventricle failure as the initial presentation is reported.

Talcosis Associated with IV Abuse of Oral Medications
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2000Our objective was to evaluate the CT appearance of talcosis associated with IV abuse of oral medications and to compare the findings of talcosis related to methylphenidate with those findings seen with other drugs.The CT scans of 12 patients with talcosis (seven men, five women), 33-54 years old (mean age, 44 years), were analyzed retrospectively ...

Pulmonary Talcosis as a Result of Massive Aspiration of Baby Powder
Southern Medical Journal, 1977Progressive diffuse pulmonary fibrosis as a sequel to massive aspiration of baby powder (talc) is documented. The diagnosis should be considered in "idiopathic" pulmonary fibrosis in childhood and adult life.
