title: [Pulmonary hemosiderosis: a case report].
abstract: A case of pulmonary hemosiderosis was reported at the Eliseo Noel Caamaño Pediatric Teaching Hospital in Matanzas City. It was a three-year-old patient, with clinical picture and complementary investigations. A review was made of the literature regarding the disease, which is unusual in children, especially with such a clear cause. Because of its high morbidity and frequent mortality, it will be imperative to carry out early examination and adequate therapy. Emphasis is placed on specific nursing procedures for the management of this disease.
