Abstract
|
|
|
Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) is a life-threatening condition involving hemorrhage originating in the pulmonary microvasculature. The clinical syndrome is characterized by hemoptysis, hypoxemic respiratory failure, low-grade fever, and diffuse pulmonary infiltrates. The majority of cases of DAH are caused by pulmonary renal syndromes, connective tissue disorders, and drugs. Here, we present a case of DAH associated with adalimumab treatment in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis.
