Title: [A documented case of typical Hamman-Rich interstitial pulmonary fibrosis]. Author: Ferraro U, Pucci G, Ghione GL, Cristaldi G, Passera A, Cardesi E. Journal: Minerva Med; 1981 Jun 23; 72(25):1599-603. PubMed ID: 7254608. Abstract: Following a brief mention of the classification of Hammer-Rich disease within idiopathic diffuse pulmonary fibrosis, the main clinical, radiological and laboratory features of these disease are outlined in brief. A personal case, subsequently controlled neroptically and histologically, is then described. From comparison between reported data and findings in the personal case, it is concluded that it was a typical, rare case (less than 150 others have so far been reported in all world literature) of Hamman-Rich disease. Other diagnostic hypotheses can be rejected because they are less correspondent to the typical picture and for various other considerations.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
