Abstract

Chest disease and morbidity has been studied among a group of 31 persons (grain workers, oil and flour millers, flour packer) exposed to inhaling mixed vegetable dusts at work. Pulmonary fibrotic lesions or simple pneumoconiosis were found histologically in 4 out of 5 cases in which post-mortem examination was done. Radiologically, various types of lung damage (reticulation, micro-nodulation, irregular fibrosis) were encountered, conforming with the histological findings in 4 out of the 5 cases in which we were able to obtain post-mortem examination. Emphysema associated with this and other types of occupational lung disease has been discussed, and 10 cases of tuberculosis and 2 of bronchogenic carcinoma have been noted. Only in six cases were chest appearances normal.

粮食工人、油和面粉加工工人的尘肺病
对在工作中吸入混合蔬菜粉尘的31人(粮食工人、油和面粉加工工人、面粉包装工人)的胸部疾病和发病率进行了研究。5例尸检患者中有4例在组织学上发现肺纤维化病变或单纯性尘肺病。影像学上,我们发现了各种类型的肺损伤(网状、微结节、不规则纤维化),这与我们能够获得尸检的5例病例中4例的组织学结果一致。肺气肿与这种和其他类型的职业性肺病有关,并已注意到10例肺结核和2例支气管源性肺癌。只有6例胸部表现正常。
