Electronic cigarette, or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI), is a group of lung disorders associated with vaping and e-cigarette products that has previously been categorized as a diagnosis of exclusion and best described as an exogenous lipoid pneumonia or chemical pneumonitis. Here, we describe the onset of an exogenous cause of lipoid pneumonia in an otherwise healthy patient using cannabis-containing electronic cigarettes. We explore similarities in the clinical case, define a common clinical presentation with progression of disease, characteristic radiographic findings along with pathological diagnosis and management.
电子烟或雾化产品使用相关肺损伤(EVALI)是一组与雾化和电子烟产品相关的肺部疾病,此前被归类为排除性诊断,最好描述为外源性类脂性肺炎或化学性肺炎。在此,我们描述了一名使用含大麻电子烟的健康患者发生外源性类脂性肺炎的情况。我们探讨了该临床病例中的相似之处,明确了疾病进展过程中的常见临床表现、特征性影像学表现以及病理诊断和治疗方法。
