An increased lipid content in alveolar macrophages of bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid is thought to be a useful indicator for recurrent pulmonary aspiration. To assess whether pulmonary diseases unrelated to aspiration can raise the lipid content in alveolar macrophages, we evaluated Oil-Red-O-st

Chronic pulmonary aspiration (CPA) causes significant morbidity, but is underdiagnosed because of difficulties in establishing a diagnosis. The lipid-laden macrophage index (LLMI) is said to differentiate between those with and without CPA. Records of 113 patients were reviewed to determine specific

Lipid-laden macrophages (LLM) in tracheal aspirates are reported to be pathognomonic findings in exo- and endogenous lipoid pneumonia in adults. A pilot study was carried out to evaluate the effect of lipid infusion on the LLM index of the tracheal aspirates from ventilated neonates. All intubated i
