Three patients with rheumatoid arthritis developed acute respiratory distress associated with pulmonary infiltration, during treatment with sodium aurothiomalate. This manifestation of gold toxicity has only recently been recognized. The temporal relationship to the introduction of gold therapy, an exacerbation following further gold injection in one patient, the resolution which followed gold withdrawal and the associated manifestation of gold toxicity in two patients favored a diagnosis of gold-induced pulmonary disease.
三名类风湿性关节炎患者在接受硫代苹果酸金钠治疗期间出现了与肺部浸润相关的急性呼吸窘迫。金毒性的这种表现直到最近才被认识到。与金疗法开始的时间关系、一名患者再次注射金后病情加重、停用金后病情缓解以及两名患者出现的金毒性相关表现均支持金诱导的肺部疾病的诊断。
