Anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies, vascular C4d deposition and increased soluble c4d in broncho-alveolar lavage of lung allografts.
BACKGROUND The hallmark of humoral rejection is the presence of subendothelial C4d in the allograft. A simultaneous determination of vascular C4d with soluble C4d in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BAL) and circulating anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies (HLA-Ab) has not been reported in lung transplantation. METHODS Forty-two consecutive lung-transplant patients were included in thi...
متن کاملAutomatic Segmentation and Classification of Cells from Broncho Alveolar Lavage
Broncho alveolar lavage is the most commonly used diagnostic tool for confirming alveolar hemorrhage. Golde has introduced a ranking score, based on the hemosiderin content of macrophages which enables ranking cells from 0 to 4 based on the degree of Prussian blue stain. We propose a complete image analysis scheme to automatically perform both the extraction of the cellular objects and the rank...
متن کاملYellow Broncho-alveolar Lavage Fluid in Eosinophilic Pneumonia
A 34-year-old man with bronchial asthma was introduced to our clinic because his blood tests showed a white blood cell count of 25,200/μL with a differential of 70% eosinophils, and chest computed tomography revealed nonsegmental multi-lobar consolidation. Bronchoscopy was performed and yellow broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected (Picture 1). The supernatant of BALF was still yell...
متن کاملComparison of GeneXpert MTB/RIF Assay in Broncho Alveolar Lavage and Gastric Lavage Samples
Objective: To compare the yield from Gastric lavage (GL) and Broncho alveolar lavage (BAL) samples in adult patients suspected case of Tuberculosis but not producing sputum. Methodology: 80 adults with suspected case of tuberculosis but not producing sputum were recruited. 72 patients were then subjected to one gastric lavage followed by Broncho-alveolar lavage in the same morning. The collecte...
متن کاملInvasive pulmonary aspergillosis diagnosed by broncho-alveolar lavage.
1 of 2 DESCRIPTION A 72-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital in August 2011 with a 5-day history of fever. She had been taking predonisolone at 10 mg/day for several years as treatment for autoimmune thrombocytopaenia. On admission, she was febrile with a body temperature of 38.5°C, and peripheral oxygen saturation was 88% in room air. Serum β-D-glucan and galactomannan (GM) testing yiel...
