Recurrent symptoms of organizing pneumonia?

summary

The main pathological changes of organizing pneumonia were organic pneumonia in the small airway and alveolar cavity below the respiratory bronchioles. The pathological changes were single, consistent in time, patchy and distributed around the bronchus. The lesion is located in the air cavity, the lung structure is not damaged, and the symptoms of recurrence of organizing pneumonia? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

Recurrent symptoms of organizing pneumonia?

There was no specificity in routine test. Pulmonary function is mainly characterized by restrictive ventilation disorder, and hypoxemia after rest and exercise is a common feature. Two thirds of the patients responded well to corticosteroids.

The age of onset of cops was mostly 50-60 years old, with an average of 55 years old. There was no gender difference, which had nothing to do with smoking. The course of disease is usually less than 2-6 months, and 2 / 5 patients have flu like symptoms, such as cough, fever, discomfort, fatigue and weight loss. There is often a popping sound at the end of inspiration.

Imaging features: the chest X-ray manifestations of organizing pneumonia were bilateral diffuse pulmonary bubbles with normal lung volume, recurrent and migratory shadows were common, and unilateral alveolar shadows were rare. High resolution CT showed patchy consolidation of alveolar cavity, ground glass shadow, small nodule shadow and bronchial wall thickening and expansion, mainly distributed around the lung, especially in the lower field.

matters needing attention

Protein is an important component of lean meat, fish and eggs. One gram of protein absorbs 18 ml of water in the body. The ultimate product of protein metabolism is urea. Patients eat more protein, urea excretion will definitely increase, and every 300 mg of urea excretion, at least to take 20 ml of water. Therefore, high protein diet should be avoided in patients with high fever and dehydration, which can be made up appropriately in the later stage of the disease, so as to improve the constitution.
