title: [Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage arising after use of a waterproofing spray].
abstract: A 33-year-old woman used waterproofing spray and subsequently developed cough, sputum and chest pain about 8 hours later accompanied by dyspnea, fever and general fatigue. She was admitted to our hospital 4 days after the symptoms appeared. A chest CT scan on the first visit revealed diffuse mild centrilobular nodular opacities and ground-glass opacities in both lung fields. Hemosiderin-laden macrophages accounted for 11% of the histiocytes found in her bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, which also contained blood. Based on these findings, the patient was given a diagnosis of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. This is the first report in Japan of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage occurring after the use of a waterproofing spray.
