Non-resolving pneumonia is a challenging clinical problem, with etiological, patient-related, and treatment-related factors to be considered during evaluation. When adequate treatment has been administered, other unusual causes of non-resolving pneumonia need to be considered (Table 1). Primary pulmonary lymphomas are very rare and represent only 3–4% of extra-nodal non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and o...

Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC), a rare form of lung malignancy, is usually seen in non-smokers and women. Three distinct histological forms have been identified viz, mucinous, non-mucinous and mixed or indeterminate. The mucinous variety of BAC may present as a consolidation which is very difficult to differentiate from an infective pneumonia. We present a case of a middle aged female who w...

Introduction: Non-resolving pneumonia is always a challenging clinical scenario where various diagnostic modalities are greatly required to reach the diagnosis. We aimed to study the role of fiberoptic bronchoscopy in non-resolving pneumonia along with the various comorbidities associated with the disease condition. Methodology: A cross sectional study in a tertiary care hospital was undertaken...

INTRODUCTION Lipoid pneumonia is a rare form of pneumonia caused by inhalation or aspiration of fat containing substances like, petroleum jelly, mineral oils, few laxatives etc. It usually presents as insidious onset chronic respiratory illness simulating interstitial lung diseases. Rarely, it may present as an acute respiratory illness, specially, when exposure to fatty substance is acute and/...

The explosive growth in the generation and collection of data has generated an urgent need for a new generation of techniques and tools that can assist in transforming these data intelligently and automatically into useful knowledge. Knowledge discovery is an emerging multidisciplinary field that attempts to fulfill this need. Knowledge discovery is a large process that includes data selection,...
