Abstract

Acute pseudoinfectious pneumonia develops after volatile hydrocarbon such as spirit,kerosene aspiration. 25-yr-old man was admitted to the hospital because of cough, dyspnea and fever. He reported that symtoms had occured after fire eaters show. He blows out a mouthful of kerosene against a burning stick. P.A chest roentgenogram demonstrated bilateral basal lung consolidations. CT scan of the chest revealed multipl bileteral abscess like consolidations which contains air,air bronchograms, necrosis and contrast-enhanced walls. After therapy with antibiotics for 20 days clinical and radiographical findings improved. After 4 monts followup chest roentgenogram showed residual minimal lesions.

Özet

Gazyağı, ispirto gibi uçucu hidrokarbonların aspirasyonu akut pseudoinfeksiöz pnömoniye yol açabilir. 25 yaşındaki erkek hasta öksürük, nefes darlığı, ateş yakınmaları ile hastanemize müracaat etti. Hasta semptomlarının çalıştığı otelde aniden gösteri yapmak için ağzına aldığı gazyağını bir çubuğa üfleme (fire-eaters show) gösterisinden sonra başladığını ifade etti. Hastanın P.A akciğer grafisinde her iki alt zonlarda konsolidasyon mevcuttu. Toraks bilgisayarlı tomografisinde multipl bilateral içlerinde hava, hava bronkogramları, nekroz alanları olan, çepersel kontrastlanma gösteren apse ile uyumlu lezyonlar görüldü. 20 günlük antibiyotik tedavisinden sonra klinik ve radyolojik düzelme saptandı. 4 ay sonra çekilen akciğer grafisinde minimal sekel lezyonlar görüldü.
