A case report reveals bronchopulmonary dysplasia in an adult, indicating possible long-term effects of ventilation.
The syndrome bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a well-known complication of mechanical ventilation, tracheal intubation, and oxygen therapy in the newborn. However, its appearance in the adult has been reported only recently. We describe the clinical course and autopsy findings of a young woman who developed BPD during mechanical ventilation despite our attempts to reduce inspired oxygen concentration (FIO2) and a trial of high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) .
