Abstract:
Pulmonary lesions in seven patients with malignancy who were treated with bleomycin were studied at autopsy. Six of them had symptoms of respiratory distress. The lesions showed a predilection for the lower lobe and subpleural zones. Diffuse alveolar damage progressing to interstitial pneumonitis at varying stages of evolution was observed in all cases. The changes included intra-alveolar proteinaceous exudate, extensive interstitial fibrosis and frank epithelial dysplasia simulating metastatic nodules.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease-III: Symptoms and Complications.
Symptoms of COPD can be classified as primary or systemic. Primary symptoms relate to reduced airflow, while systemic or extrapulmonary symptoms relate to COPD's broader impact on the body.
