pulmonary haemorrhage

Pulmonary haemorrhage is a rather broad term given to describe any form of bleeding into the lung and can arise from a myriad of causes. In a very traditional sense it is described when the following constellation of clinico-radiological features occur simultaneously (although this is never an absolute necessity):

• haemoptysis
• anaemia
• air space opacities on imaging

Pulmonary haemorrhage can be arbitrarily divided into two broad groups and several subtypes

• diffuse pulmonary haemorrhage (DPH)
  • diffuse alveolar haemorrhage (DAH)
• localised pulmonary haemorrhage

• air space opacities
• neonatal respiratory distress (causes)
