[Indices of external respiration in patients with Hodgkin's disease long after irradiation of the mediastinum]. 1985

I P Shishkin, and E V Artemkina, and N V Afanasova, and A V Barabanova

The function of the respiratory organs using the results of ventilation, gas exchange and roentgenopneumopolygraphy, was analysed in 98 Hodgkin's disease patients in a state of a prolonged remission (5-12 yrs.) after radiation therapy of the mediastinum. Pulmonary ventilation disorders were revealed in 43.9% of the patients. The degree of ventilation disorders depended on the degree of expression of radiation fibrosis in the paramediastinal regions of the lungs. Usually there were no clinical signs of the revealed changes.

D008297 Male Males
D008482 Mediastinum A membrane in the midline of the THORAX of mammals. It separates the lungs between the STERNUM in front and the VERTEBRAL COLUMN behind. It also surrounds the HEART, TRACHEA, ESOPHAGUS, THYMUS, and LYMPH NODES.
D011658 Pulmonary Fibrosis A process in which normal lung tissues are progressively replaced by FIBROBLASTS and COLLAGEN causing an irreversible loss of the ability to transfer oxygen into the bloodstream via PULMONARY ALVEOLI. Patients show progressive DYSPNEA finally resulting in death.

D012119 Respiration The act of breathing with the LUNGS, consisting of INHALATION, or the taking into the lungs of the ambient air, and of EXHALATION, or the expelling of the modified air which contains more CARBON DIOXIDE than the air taken in (Blakiston's Gould Medical Dictionary, 4th ed.). This does not include tissue respiration ( Breathing

D006689 Hodgkin Disease A malignant disease characterized by progressive enlargement of the lymph nodes, spleen, and general lymphoid tissue. In the classical variant, giant usually multinucleate Hodgkin's and REED-STERNBERG CELLS are present; in the nodular lymphocyte predominant variant, lymphocytic and histiocytic cells are seen.
