[Lavage of the whole lung in a patient with pulmonary alveolar lipoproteinosis]
Abstract
The first in Poland procedure of whole lung lavage is reported. The patient had intravitally diagnosed pulmonary alveolar lipoproteinosis. Difficulties in an effective and safe performance of the procedure are discussed. Modernized methods of lung lavage in patients with severe respiratory failure due to pulmonary alveolar lipoproteinosis are described.
