• T: 40℃, R: 32 times/min.

• Chest x-ray: show large-area uniform dense well-delimited shadow in his left upper lobe.

• Blood examination: WBC: 13.5x 109/ L

Questions Questions

•What does this patient should be diagnosed as?

•Which type of inflammation?•Why does the patient cough

with the “rusty” sputum?

• Half a year later, this student was enrolled to the army.

• The chest x-ray indicated there was a nodule in his left lung.

• The nodule was checked under microscope, there was much granulation tissue in the alveolar spaces.

•WHY?

Case abstract 2Case abstract 2

•Male, 70-year-old, he had suffered hypertensive heart disease and left heart failure for half a year, and cough and expectoration for 1 year. These symptoms aggravated 4 days ago with fever and purulent sputum.

•T: 38℃, HR: 112 times/min, R: 35 times/min, BP: 22.6/13.5 kPa.

•Blood WBC: 10.2 X 109/L

•X-ray: Several scattered patchy shadows evidently in bilateral lower lobes.

Questions Questions

•What does this patient will be diagnosed as?

the purulent sputum?
