edema pulmonar

edema pulmonar

A pneumonia-like accumulation of fluid and swelling in the lungs. Like cerebral edema, it can be caused by hypoxia at high altitude. While pulmonary edema is potentially life threatening, it generally is less likely than cerebral edema to result in death if treated in time.
