Histopathology Lung --Acute pulmonary edema, Asbestos bodies

Probably anthracotic pigment

The regular small dark particles interest me. What are they? They look very much denser than the surrounding tissues.

For me, it would help to see side-by-side healthy lung tissue with edematous tissue. But I really appreciate the video.  Thank you.

I tryed to make out some asbestos bodies but I couldn't find any of them without fantasizing too much. or there aren't or the resolution isn't good enough or I'm not skilled enough. ... I'll try to forget about them since asbestosis surely wasn't the cause of the edema

[backyravz]

wish u could post more cases.

youre a good teacher

Lung --Acute pulmonary edema

[eddym1975]

What causes Lung --Acute pulmonary edema?

What are the symptoms someone can feel, and how detect it on a early stage? Thanks!

[Maqdooh]

Symptoms of pulmonary edema include difficulty breathing, coughing up blood, excessive sweating, anxiety, and pale skin. A classical sign of pulmonary edema is the production of pink frothy sputum.

That is from Wikipedia.

Oh my. I hope you aren't a health professional.

We call this 'left heart failure' and if I were you I wouldn't be waiting for "the production of pink frothy sputum" before I sought help. Bit far down the line for me!

p.s. search better interwebs before posting your lies.

Omg I hope you are not studying to become a doctor, or worse, you managed to scrape by medschool. This guy explains everything, and it is all correct. Left heart faliure is only one cause (albeit a severe and leading one) of pulmonary edema.

I would hit the books my son, or quit Medschool if you haven't been kicked out already for being such a moron.
