Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Paraffin has characteristics that make it popular among fire breathers.
AIMS: To describe a case of paraffin-induced lipoid pneumonia in a fire breather.
METHODS: The patient was evaluated clinically in relation to his occupational history.
RESULTS: A 32-year-old man presented with dyspnoea, tachypnoea and non-productive cough of 2 h duration that started immediately following an attempt to blow fire using paraffin as the volatile substance. He was discharged from the emergency ward but returned the next day presenting again with dyspnoea accompanied by mid-sternal pain, fever (38.1 degrees C) and leucocytosis. Chest radiography showed perihilar punctuate infiltrations. A diagnosis of exogenous lipoid pneumonia caused by paraffin was made, and the patient was treated, with full recovery within a week.
CONCLUSIONS: Fire breathers must be viewed as a population at risk of paraffin-induced lipoid pneumonia.
