Hemoptizi; trakeobronşiyal ağaç ya da akciğer parankiminden kaynaklanan kanamanın ekspektorasyonudur. Kardiak, pulmoner, hematolojik, enfeksiyoz nedenler, bazı sistemik hastalıklar ve idiyopatik pulmoner hemosideroz hemoptiziye yol açabilir. İdiyopatik pulmoner hemosiderozis; akciğerlerde anormal hemosiderin depolanmasıyla giden, difüz alveolar hemorajiye bağlı hemoptizi yapan nadir bir pulmoner hastalıktır. İdiyopatik pulmoner hemosiderozis genellikle on yaş altında, yaygın olarak da 1-7 yaşta görülür. Çocukluk çağında cinsiyet dağılımı eşit iken, erişkin dönemde erkeklerde daha sık görülmektedir. Tanısı fiberoptik bronkoskopi ile alınan bronkoalveoler lavaj sıvısında hemosiderin yüklü makrofajların görülmesiyle ve intrapulmoner, ekstrapulmoner kanama yapabilen nedenler ekarte edilerek konulur.Burada, hemoptizi ile gelen ve İdiyopatik pulmoner hemosiderozis tanısı alan kız olguyu, hastalığın nadir görülmesi nedeniyle tekrar hatırlatmak ve ilk kez adölesan dönemde bulgu vermesini vurgulamak amacıyla sunduk. Çocukluk ve adelosan dönemde solunumsal semptomlar, özellikle de hemoptizi ile başvuran; göğüs görüntülemede yamalı, yaygın buzlu cam görünümü saptanan olgularda, ayırıcı tanıda İdiyopatik pulmoner hemosiderozis yer almalıdır.
Hemoptysis is the expectoration of the hemorrhage originating from the tracheobronchial tree or lung parenchyma. Cardiac, pulmonary, hemoatological pathologies, infectious or systemic diseases and idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis can cause hemoptysis. Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis is a rare cause of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage in children that results in abnormal hemosiderin deposition in the lung parenchyma. It is generally seen in children under 10 and most commonly between 1 and 7 years. While gender distribution is even in childhood, it is more frequently seen in males in adulthood. Diagnosis is confirmed by identification of hemosiderin-laden macrophages in broncho-alveolar lavage and ruling out other causes of intra- and extrapulmonary hemorrhage. Here we present a rare case of IPH that became symptomatic in adolescence. IPH should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients who present with respiratory symptoms and particularly hemoptysis in childhood and adolescence with positive chest imaging findings
