Day Pneumonia

Deno pneumonia (syn.: Grancher's disease, splenopneumonia) is a rare lung disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the lung tissue in combination with an enlarged spleen.

The disease is named after the French doctor L.J. Desnos (1828-1893), who first described it in 1891. The causes of deno pneumonia are not completely clear. It is assumed that impaired immunity plays a role in its development.

The main symptoms of deno pneumonia: shortness of breath, cough, fever, enlarged spleen. Diagnosis is based on analysis of the clinical picture, chest x-ray data and spleen biopsy.

Treatment includes antibiotics, glucocorticosteroids, and sometimes removal of the spleen. The prognosis depends on the extent of lung damage and the effectiveness of therapy. With timely treatment, complete recovery is possible.

Deno pneumonia, also known as pseudopleural pneumothorax or confluent pneumonia, is an infectious disease that occurs when bacteria enter the pleural cavity. It causes chest pain, shortness of breath and cough, and can lead to other serious complications.

This disease was first described in 1883 by the French physician Denault, who called it “pseudopleural” pneumonia. Currently, it is known as “deno pneumonia”.

The causes of deno pneumonia can be different, but most often it appears in people who are at risk. For example, it can occur in smokers, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or acid aspiration (choking).

Symptoms of deno pneumonia appear quickly and often include chest pain and shortness of breath that worsens with physical activity. Some people also experience a cough that produces mucus.

The diagnosis of pneumonia is made on the basis of an x-ray examination, which shows an increase in the shadow of the respiratory system and the absence of pleural effusion. Other diagnostic methods such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging may also be used.

Treatment for dento pneumonia usually involves taking antibiotics to reduce the infection load. Symptomatic therapy may also be used, such as using painkillers to relieve chest pain.

The consequences of deno pneumonia can be serious, as they can lead to the development of other diseases such as pleurisy, empyema, pneumothorax and even death. However, timely diagnosis and treatment can reduce the risk of complications and improve the prognosis for the patient.
