متن کاملPulmonary emphysema is a predictor of pneumothorax after CT-guided transthoracic pulmonary biopsies of pulmonary nodules
PURPOSE Pneumothoraces are the most frequently occurring complications of CT-guided percutaneous transthoracic pulmonary biopsies (PTPB). The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of pre-diagnostic lung emphysema on the incidence and extent of pneumothoraces and to establish a risk stratification for the evaluation of the pre-procedure complication probability.

متن کاملCombined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome associated with ABCA3 mutations.
We report a case of extensive upper-lobe emphysema and lower-lobe pulmonary fibrosis consistent with combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) syndrome in a nonsmoker adult patient. Sequence analysis of surfactant protein C gene (SFTPC, MIM 178620) and ATP-binding cassette subfamily A member 3 gene (ABCA3, MIM 601615) identified no mutation in SFTPC gene but compound heterozygosity in AB...

However, it has been rarely previously described in the context of vasculitis. OBSERVATION We report a case of CPFE occurring in a 44-year-old man, who was a light smoker without any previous medical histor...
