Abstract
|
|
|
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is characterized by the remittent or progressive accumulation of lipid-rich proteinaceous material within the alveolar sacs in the absence of inflammatory response. Whole-lung lavage is the only consistent treatment
for
pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.
We have utilized whole-lung lavage for the successful treatment of a 62 year-old female patient with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. There was no persistent complication during the procedure and the postanesthetic recovery except temporary fever
and
hypoxic event.
The patient was symptomatically, physiologically, and radiologically improved within days after the procedures.
