1 Idiopathic Pulmonary Hemorrhage
Christian G. Brambilla, M.D., Elizabeth M. Brambilla, M.D., Pierre Stoebner, M.D., Elizabeth Dechelette, M.D.  CHEST  Volume 81, Issue 1, Pages (January 1982) DOI: /chest Copyright © 1982 The American College of Chest Physicians Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Alveolar septa. Capillaries, junctions and basement membranes are normal, even at right, where deposits of iron and calcium are present between capillary and alveolar basement membrane.

3 Figure 2 Deposits of iron and calcium on alveolar basement membrane. Amount of calcium is lower than iron. CHEST  , DOI: ( /chest ) Copyright © 1982 The American College of Chest Physicians Terms and Conditions

4 Figure 3 Deposits are numerous on basement membrane facing alveolar lumen and seldom are found on deeper interstitial side of capillaries. CHEST  , DOI: ( /chest ) Copyright © 1982 The American College of Chest Physicians Terms and Conditions

5 Figure 4 Alveolar macrophage. Inclusions of hemosiderin contain iron but no calcium. Lower left, Macrophage is observed on transmission electron microscope. Upper right, Thin section of macrophage is observed on scanning electron microscope. Shadow of cell is visible, and inclusions of hemosiderin have higher secondary electron emission than cell's cytoplasm. Upper left, Mapping of iron of same cell is shown by x-ray microanalysis.
