Lipoid Pneumonia

Lipoid Pneumonia

Lipoid pneumonia is a rare form of lung disease due to aspiration or inhalation of exogenous or endogenous lipid-containing products. In the past, this disease has usually been an incidental postmortem finding associated with severe respiratory compromise. Currently, there are no specific evidence-based guidelines for the treatment of this lung disease. This activity reviews the evaluation of a patient with lipoid pneumonia and highlights the role of interprofessional team members in collaborating to provide early identification of this disease process as well as education to patients of the risk factors for this rare form of pneumonia.
