A patient developed fever, bronchoconstriction, hypoxaemia, pulmonary infiltrates, and serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid eosinophilia on two occasions after inhaling crack cocaine. Transbronchial biopsy specimens showed normal lung parenchyma but a dense eosinophilic infiltrate within the bronchial wall. Both episodes resolved promptly after treatment with corticosteroids. Eosinophilic lung disease may be a steroid responsive complication of crack cocaine abuse.
一名患者在吸入快克可卡因后两次出现发热、支气管收缩、低氧血症、肺部浸润以及血清和支气管肺泡灌洗液嗜酸性粒细胞增多。经支气管活检标本显示肺实质正常,但支气管壁内有密集的嗜酸性粒细胞浸润。两次发作在使用皮质类固醇治疗后均迅速缓解。嗜酸性粒细胞性肺病可能是快克可卡因滥用的一种对类固醇有反应的并发症。
