Association between one-session bilateral whole-lung lavage and periprocedural complications in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis: a retrospective cohort study. Orphanet J Rare Dis 2023; 18:91. [PMID: 37081515 PMCID: PMC10116806 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-023-02691-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 04/02/2023] [Indexed: 04/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whole lung lavage (WLL) has been recognized as the most effective therapy of severe pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP). Most centers perform the lavage of each lung in two sessions under general anesthesia at an interval of several days to weeks. Compared with two-session WLL, one-session bilateral sequential WLL only requires general anesthesia once. However, the safety of one-session WLL in PAP patients has not been assessed by large cohort studies. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between the mode of WLL procedure (one-session or two-session) and the risk of periprocedural complications in PAP patients. METHODS In this single-center retrospective cohort study, we included adult patients who were diagnosed as PAP and had undergone WLL procedures under general anesthesia from 2000 to 2022. Patients requiring extra-corporeal oxygenation during WLL were excluded. Since some patients received multiple WLL procedures, we considered each procedure in one-session or two-session group as a unique unit in our analysis. The primary outcome was the occurrence of any complications during hospitalization, including termination of WLL procedure due to fluid leakage or refractory hypoxemia, bronchospasm, delayed endotracheal extubation, cardiovascular event, pneumothorax, and fever. RESULTS We included a total of 175 WLL procedures (118 patients), with 48 in the two-session group and 127 in the one-session group. Periprocedural complications occurred in 17 (35.4%) and 39 (30.7%) procedures in the two-session and the one-session groups, respectively. The risk of periprocedural complications did not differ significantly between groups, after adjusting the unbalanced confounders in a multivariable model (odds ratio 0.95, 95% confidence interval 0.34 to 2.69, P 0.929) or by inverse probability of treatment weighting (odds ratio 0.70, 95% confidence interval 0.30 to 1.54, P 0.379). Compared with the two-session WLL group, the one-session WLL group had a shorter postprocedural length of hospitalization and comparable decrease in alveolar-arterial oxygen tension gradient from baseline. CONCLUSIONS One-session bilateral WLL was not associated with an increased risk of periprocedural complications compared with two-session WLL in PAP patients. Experienced physicians may consider performing one-session WLL in view of the comparable safety and efficacy and potential advantages of saving time.

Abstract
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare pulmonary disorder characterized by the accumulation of surfactant in the alveolar spaces resulting in hypoxemic respiratory failure. Whole lung lavage (WLL), the preferred treatment for PAP, physically removes the lipoproteinaceous material from the alveolar spaces. Since its initial description in 1963, the WLL procedure has undergone various modifications. However, the procedure has not been standardized yet. After securing a double lumen endotracheal tube, we perform WLL under general anesthesia. One lung is ventilated, while the other is lavaged using one-liter aliquots of pre-warmed saline. We use gravity-assisted drainage of the lavaged lung after each cycle till the milky white and opaque fluid becomes clear (usually 15-20 cycles). Herein, we describe the step-by-step procedure, precautions, and monitoring of WLL. We also provide videos demonstrating one-lung ventilation and bronchoscopic confirmation of lung isolation.

Abstract
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a diffuse lung disease characterized by the accumulation of alveolar surfactants due to dysfunction of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-dependent cholesterol clearance. Whole-lung lavage is the current standard of care for PAP, but it can lead to the exacerbation of hypoxia. A medication targeting cholesterol homeostasis is a promising therapy for refractory PAP. We present a case of autoimmune PAP with severe hypoxia that was successfully treated with segmental lung lavage (SLL). Following SLL for disease relapse, statin treatment for dyslipidemia was started. After initiating statin treatment, the patient did not require bronchoalveolar lavage for 10 months.

Abstract
Congenital interstitial lung diseases can affect both adults and children. Pediatric congenital interstitial lung diseases generally carry high risk for morbidly and mortality and include congenital alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins, congenital alveolar dysplasia, acinar dysplasia, congenital pulmonary lymphangiectasis, diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis, neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia of infancy, pulmonary hemosiderosis, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, and pulmonary interstitial glycogenosis. Given their usual non-specific clinical presentation, they are frequently misdiagnosed and recognized late, particularly in children who have been apparently healthy for several years (eg, diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis). Some diseases have a very poor prognosis, whereas others have a benign course with appropriate treatment. The current manuscript reviews congenital interstitial lung diseases that typically affect neonates and young children and may be encountered by the pediatric anesthesiologist.

Abstract
Pulmonary surfactant is a crucial and dynamic lung structure whose primary functions are to reduce alveolar surface tension and facilitate breathing. Though disruptions in surfactant homeostasis are typically thought of in the context of respiratory distress and premature infants, many lung diseases have been noted to have significant surfactant abnormalities. Nevertheless, preclinical and clinical studies of pulmonary disease too often overlook the potential contribution of surfactant alterations - whether in quantity, quality or composition - to disease pathogenesis and symptoms. In inflammatory lung diseases, whether these changes are cause or consequence remains a subject of debate. This review will outline 1) the importance of pulmonary surfactant in the maintenance of respiratory health, 2) the diseases associated with primary surfactant dysregulation, 3) the surfactant abnormalities observed in inflammatory pulmonary diseases and, finally, 4) the available research on the interplay between surfactant homeostasis and smoking-associated lung disease. From these published studies, we posit that changes in surfactant integrity and composition contribute more considerably to chronic inflammatory pulmonary diseases and that more work is required to determine the mechanisms underlying these alterations and their potential treatability.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare lung disease, characterized by abnormal alveolar accumulation of enlarged foamy macrophages and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS)-positive materials. Knowledge of the disease characteristics is still lacking. OBJECTIVE To help clinicians gain a better understanding of this rare disease. METHODS We undertook a retrospective analysis of 14 adult patients with PAP, treated in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. RESULTS Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was correlated with the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO). Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) established a definitive diagnosis for a positive rate of 100%. The patients underwent whole lung lavage (WLL) and exhibited varying degrees of remission. The patients with mild symptoms received only supportive care and observation, and remained stable during follow-up. CONCLUSION LDH may correlate with disease severity. Bronchoscopy is sufficiently sensitive for a definite diagnosis. Conventional bilateral whole lung lavage proved a reliable treatment for indicated patients, but selective unilateral lung lavage or observation may be a rational choice in certain patients.

Abstract
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is characterized by accumulation of surfactant-like lipoprotein material within distal bronchioles and alveoli due to impaired clearance. Clinically, PAP presents with dyspnea and cough. A 58-year-old Hispanic man presented with 6 months of productive cough, weight loss, and progressively worsening dyspnea. He reported a long history of poorly controlled type 2 diabetes that led to diabetic nephropathy. The patient had a strong passive smoking history for over 30 years and exposure to woodsmoke. He had pulmonary tuberculosis in 2007 and 2012. In 2011, he was diagnosed with renal failure, was dialyzed for a year, and received a renal transplant in 2012. His posttransplant medication regimens included tacrolimus, mycophenolic acid, and prednisone. Six months after the transplant, he suffered graft rejection, managed with steroids and switching from tacrolimus to sirolimus. His physical examination demonstrated scattered inspiratory crackles, and a chest X-ray showed bilateral perihilar ground-glass opacities. PAP was diagnosed through lung biopsy, which showed eosinophilic granular infiltrate withing the alveoli. Sirolimus was switched back to tacrolimus 2 mg in September 2018. PAP diagnosis included hematoxylin and eosin and PAS. Clinical follow-up included oxygen saturation with pulse oximeter and chest X-rays. A 2-month follow-up showed only partial improvement in both symptoms and radiological findings. In January 2019, a follow-up showed complete radiological and symptomatologic resolution. After 5 months, the patient remains asymptomatic with adequate exertion tolerance. PAP remains a diagnosis of exclusion in patients undergoing immunomodulatory therapy with sirolimus and pulmonary symptoms. Reversal can be achieved by switching agents.

Abstract
Inhalation injury causes a heterogeneous cascade of insults that increase morbidity and mortality among the burn population. Despite major advancements in burn care for the past several decades, there remains a significant burden of disease attributable to inhalation injury. For this reason, effort has been devoted to finding new therapeutic approaches to improve outcomes for patients who sustain inhalation injuries.The three major injury classes are the following: supraglottic, subglottic, and systemic. Treatment options for these three subtypes differ based on the pathophysiologic changes that each one elicits.Currently, no consensus exists for diagnosis or grading of the injury, and there are large variations in treatment worldwide, ranging from observation and conservative management to advanced therapies with nebulization of different pharmacologic agents.The main pathophysiologic change after a subglottic inhalation injury is an increase in the bronchial blood flow. An induced mucosal hyperemia leads to edema, increases mucus secretion and plasma transudation into the airways, disables the mucociliary escalator, and inactivates hypoxic vasocontriction. Collectively, these insults potentiate airway obstruction with casts formed from epithelial debris, fibrin clots, and inspissated mucus, resulting in impaired ventilation. Prompt bronchoscopic diagnosis and multimodal treatment improve outcomes. Despite the lack of globally accepted standard treatments, data exist to support the use of bronchoscopy and suctioning to remove debris, nebulized heparin for fibrin casts, nebulized N-acetylcysteine for mucus casts, and bronchodilators.Systemic effects of inhalation injury occur both indirectly from hypoxia or hypercapnia resulting from loss of pulmonary function and systemic effects of proinflammatory cytokines, as well as directly from metabolic poisons such as carbon monoxide and cyanide. Both present with nonspecific clinical symptoms including cardiovascular collapse. Carbon monoxide intoxication should be treated with oxygen and cyanide with hydroxocobalamin.Inhalation injury remains a great challenge for clinicians and an area of opportunity for scientists. Management of this concomitant injury lags behind other aspects of burn care. More clinical research is required to improve the outcome of inhalation injury.The goal of this review is to comprehensively summarize the diagnoses, treatment options, and current research.

Abstract
Background: Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare interstitial lung disease classified into congenital form, autoimmune form and secondary form. Secondary PAP is caused by underlying conditions including solid malignancies. Few cases reported PAP associated with lung cancers. Objective: To show the clinical features of PAP with adenocarcinom, tried to seek for possible mechanism to explain whole clinical course. Methods: Reported a case of PAP associated with lung adenocarcinom, and also reviewed the relevant literature on PAP. Results: The patient suffered from intermittent cough, fever, shortness of breath, thoracalgia or hemoptysis. Blood gas analysis showed hyoxemia. Spirometric abnormality is mildly restrictive defect. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) showed patchy, ground-glass opacities with interlobular septal thickening called as “crazy-paving” pattern. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) revealed a nodule with characteristics of lobulation and spiculation in the right lung apex section and diffuse consolidation shadow spreading over rest of lung field. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) showed a large amount of amorphous red-dyed materials and a few alveolar macrophages scattered in endoalveolar space with PAS positive. Transbronchial lung biopsy found adenocarcinoma. Wedge resection with mediastinal lymphnode and then 2 cycles of postoperative chemotherapy was carried out. No ground-glass opacities were found in his chest CT pictures in the next nine months. This result may support the theory that lung cancer cells cause quantitative or functional damage to alveolar macrophages, which trend to secondary PAP. Conclusions: The patient had typical clinical features of PAP. PAP may be secondary to lung cancer. (Sarcoidosis Vasc Diffuse Lung Dis 2018; 35: 390-394)

Herein, we describe two cases of secondary PAP who had GM-CSF antibodies and absence of STAT5 phosphorylation index, suggestive of a potential relationship between the appearance of GM-CSF antibodies and environmental dust exposure. However, whether the presence of GM-CSF antibodies is a part of the pathological process or represents an epiphenomenon is currently unknown. In this report, we would like to present two cases supporting these new data and briefly discuss the possible role of autoimmune mechanisms in the development of secondary PAP. Am. J. Ind.

Lung Transplant Recipient with Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis. Case Rep Transplant 2016; 2016:4628354.

Abstract
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a progressive lung disease characterized by accumulated surfactant-like lipoproteinaceous material in the alveoli and distal bronchioles. This accumulation is the result of impaired clearance by alveolar macrophages. PAP has been described in 11 solid organ transplant recipients, 9 of whom were treated with mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors. We report a case of a lung transplant recipient treated with prednisone, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and tacrolimus who ultimately developed PAP, which worsened when MMF was replaced with everolimus.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to support repeated whole-lung lavage in a patient with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in life threatening dyspnoe--a case report. BMC Anesthesiol 2015; 15:173. [PMID: 26621369 PMCID: PMC4666039 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-015-0152-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2015] [Accepted: 11/19/2015] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Backgroud Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is a rare disorder that is characterized by a large accumulation of lipoproteinaceous material within the alveoli. This causes respiratory failure due to a restriction of gas exchange and changes in the ventilation/perfusion ratio. Clinical symptoms are variable and depend on the severity of damage of the lung parenchyma. Treatment method is whole-lung lavage, where the accumulated lipoproteinaceous material is removed using large quantities of saline. Case presentation This case report describes a 45 year old patient with advanced pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. Due to the presence of severe global respiratory insufficiency, this patient could not undergo the classic whole-lung lavage using a double-lumen tube and selective lung ventilation. The whole-lung lavage was performed with the support of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. A total of 27 l of warm saline was used. Conclusion According to the current published literature, whole-lung lavage with extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation support is a very rare treatment method. Even when taking into account all of the risks associated with whole-lung lavage and v-v extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, we found that this technique is very effective and, without a doubt, it saved the life of our patient.

Abstract
Pediatric airway management is a challenge in routine anesthesia practice. Any airway-related complication due to improper procedure can have catastrophic consequences in pediatric patients. The authors reviewed the current relevant literature using the following data bases: Google Scholar, PubMed, Medline (OVID SP), and Dynamed, and the following keywords: Airway/s, Children, Pediatric, Difficult Airways, and Controversies. From a summary of the data, we identified several controversies: difficult airway prediction, difficult airway management, cuffed versus uncuffed endotracheal tubes for securing pediatric airways, rapid sequence induction (RSI), laryngeal mask versus endotracheal tube, and extubation timing. The data show that pediatric anesthesia practice in perioperative airway management is currently lacking the strong evidence-based medicine (EBM) data that is available for adult subpopulations. A number of procedural steps in airway management are derived only from adult populations. However, the objective is the same irrespective of patient age: proper securing of the airway and oxygenation of the patient.
