摘要:
Pulmonary and laryngeal manifestations of localized and organ-limited amyloidosis are sometimes seen, although pulmonary and laryngeotracheal amyloidosis are not always associated. Diagnosis can only be established histologically by the characteristic green birefringence in polarized light after Congo red staining and by immunohistochemical techniques. We describe the case of a 77-year-old woman who presented with hoarseness and an unproductive cough due to extensive amyloid deposits in both the upper and lower respiratory tract, immunohistochemically proven as the Aλ-type

摘要:
In a 66-year-old patient morphologic features of a pulmonary veno-occlusive disease were found. Besides, a striking foreign body giant cell reaction with phagocytosis of altered elastic tissue in totally or partially occluded venous blood vessels resembled the so-called pulmonary sideroelastosis, an entity originally described by Ceelen. In this case report, a possible pathogenetic relation between sideroelastosis pulmonum and pulmonary veno-occlusive disease is discussed.

摘要:
Cat-scratch disease has been associated with a variety of systemic manifestations. We present a case of cat-scratch disease associated with bilateral pleural effusions and encephalopathy in a child. The particular combination of findings reported here may be more ubiquitous than formerly suspected and widen the clinical description of this condition.

摘要:
Aneurysms of the thoracoic aorta may on rare occasions lead to shortness of breath by external compression of the tracheobronchial tree. We report the case of a patient who presented with orthopnea due to extensive compression of the trachea and the major airways by a large aneurysm of the ascending aorta.
