Exogenous Lipoid Pneumonia Due To Intramuscular Injection of Synthol in a Bodybuilder
Öz
We report a case of chronic exogenous lipoid
pneumonia that developed due to recurrent intramuscular use of “Synthol”, a
synthetic oil derivative, for muscle filling. 40-year-old man, who had used
Synthol to enlarge his pectoral muscles, was admitted to the chest diseases
polyclinic with shortness of breath progressing within a year. On computerized
tomography of thorax there were reticulations and septal thickenings consistent
with interstitial lung disease. The patient underwent bronchoscopy.
Bronchoalveolar lavage and transbronchial biopsy (TBB) were performed. In the
histopathologic study of TBB, intraalveolar and interstitial fatty macrophages,
giant cells around fat particles and extracellular fat particles were observed
and the specimen was reported as "lipoid pneumonia". According to our
knowledge, exogenous lipoid pneumonia due to intramuscular use of Synthol has
not been reported heretofore and this is the first case in the literature.
