NeumopatÍa por humo de leña Un estudio en autopsias

Abstract: 155 pacientes tenían exposición al humo de los cuales 103 (5,6%) reunían los criterios de inclusión. 97% de los casos eran mujeres. Los cambios histológicos principales fueron: enfermedad vascular hipertensiva (39%), tromboembolismo pulmonar de vasos de pequeño y mediano calibre (38%) y antracosis peribronquial, perivascular e intersticial. En todos los parámetros histológicos se apreció mayor compromiso pulmonar con el mayor tiempo de exposición al humo de leña. A pesar de sus características peculiares no es… Show more

“…La inhalación prolongada de partículas inorgánicas en lugares de trabajo se asocia a enfermedades pulmonares crónicas, cuya presentación clínica difiere según el agente exposicional (1,13). La neumoconiosis por estaño es una enfermedad ocupacional producida por la inhalación de partículas inorgánicas de óxido de estaño.…”

“…Patients with WS-COPD have consistently less emphysema and more airway changes (bronchial and peribronchial thickening and fibrosis, bronchiectasis, segmental and laminar subsegmental atelectasis, mosaic perfusion pattern, parenchymal bands) than patients with TS-COPD on both chest tomography and histological studies [48-50, 52, 60, 69, 73] (Figure 5). Bronchial and lung biopsies from patients with WS-COPD show significant inflammation and thickening of the bronchial wall, mainly of its basal membrane, squamous cell metaplasia with a remarkable anthracotic pigment deposition in the bronchi and pulmonary interstitium [60,[75][76][77].…”
