Pulmonary Insufficiency

SummaryA case of pulmonary insufficiency in a girl of 11 with pulmonary fibrosis and pronounced clubbing of the digits is described. The pulmonary function was investigated according to the schedule of Cournand & Richards. Autopsy findings confirmed the diagnosis of interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. The case illustrates the symptomatic similarity between cardiac and pulmonary insufficiency with dyspnoe and cyanosis and also the present day means of analysis and specific diagnosis.RésuméUn cas d'insuffisance pulmonaire chez une fillette de 11 ans ayant une fibrose pulmonaire et des doigts hippocratiques prononcés. La fonction pulmonaire a été examinée d'aprés le schéma de Cournand & Richards. L'autopsie confirme le diagnostic de fibrose pulmonaire interstitiel. Le cas met en lumière la similitude symptômatique entre l'insuffisance cardiaque et l'insuffisance pulmonaire avec dyspnée et cyanose ainsi que les possibilités d'analyse et de diagnostic spécial que l'on a aujourd'hui.ZusammenfassungEs wird ein Fall von Pulmonaler Insuffizienz bei cincm 11‐jährigen Mädchen mit Lungenfibrose und ausgeprägten Trommelschlägelfingern berichtet.
