This case report describes a patient with diffuse consolidation form of bronchoalveolar carcinoma (BAC) which is a rare type of adenocarcinoma of lung. He was diagnosed on the basis of findings on X-ray and high resolution CT(HRCT) chest later confirmed by open lung biopsy and immuno-histochemical staining.

متن کاملA case report on bronchoalveolar carcinoma presenting as non-resolving consolidation
Abstract Bronchoalveolar carcinoma presenting as non-resolving consolidation is an uncommon presentation. The typical presentation of bronchoalveolar carcinoma is asymptomatic (solitary nodule) and remains without symptoms even as disease disseminates. We report a case of bronchoalveolar carcinoma presenting as non-resolving consolidation in a young male with productive cough, exertional ...
متن کاملA Case Report of Small Cell Lung Carcinoma in a Patient with Progressive Diffuse Sclerosis
Connective tissue diseases, including scleroderma, may be associated with an increased risk of lung cancer. The most common type of lung cancer associated with systemic sclerosis is adenocarcinoma or bronchoalveolar carcinoma, and small cell carcinoma is rare. This reports presents a 54-year-old non-smoker woman with a history of scleroderma who was examined due to aggravation of shortness of ...
متن کاملIncreased oxidation of extracellular glutathione by bronchoalveolar inflammatory cells in diffuse fibrosing alveolitis.
An unbalanced oxidative stress is thought to be an important element in the pathogenesis of diffuse fibrosing alveolitis (DFA). The purpose of our study was to investigate the role of reactive oxygen metabolites (ROMs) released from cultured bronchoalveolar inflammatory cells (BA-cells) on glutathione oxidation. We studied bronchoalveolar lavage samples from 10 healthy controls and from 20 pati...
متن کاملElevated concentrations of defensins in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in diffuse panbronchiolitis.
Human neutrophils contain three isoforms of antimicrobial and cytotoxic peptides in the azurophil granules, which belong to a family of mammalian neutrophil peptides named defensins. Here we investigate the role of these peptides in diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB). Defensins (human neutrophil peptide-1, -2 and -3) were measured by radioimmunoassay in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of 30 pat...
