ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is a rare cause of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, the mechanism of which is currently unknown. Nearly one-third of pediatric patients with IPH test positive for Celiac disease (CD) serology. Several hypothetical mechanisms have been proposed to unify the coexistence of these two entities, also referred to as Lane-Hamilton syndrome (LHS).METHOD:
This manuscript is a scoping review of the medical literature. Medline, Embase, and PubMed Central databases were searched between 1971 and 2021 with appropriate search words to identify all cases of pediatric LHS.RESULTS:
A total of 20 manuscripts with 23 pediatric patients with LHS were identified. The mean age was 11 years, and 13/23 (56.5%) of the children were boys. Hemoptysis was present in 57% of patients during diagnosis. Bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage demonstrating hemosiderin laden macrophages was the primary mode of diagnostic confirmation. Only three patients underwent lung biopsy. Any significant GI symptom was reported in a minority of patients (22%). Iron deficiency anemia on presentation was described in 83% of children. The majority of patients were malnourished. Serology for CD was positive in all patients, as was the histopathologic analysis of the small bowel biopsy. No patients had any other autoantibody positivity. The introduction of gluten free diet (GFD) was associated with a positive response in 20/23 patients.CONCLUSION:
All pediatric patients with IPH should undergo screening for CD. Low serum ferritin in patients with IPH could be suggestive of coexisting CD. Strict GFD should be tried as the initial therapy.Palavras-chave
