Pulmonary edema associated with child abuse: case reports and review of the literature.

D M Rubin1, C O McMillan, M A Helfaer, C W Christian.   

Abstract

Pulmonary edema has been an unreported finding in the evaluation of abused children. We describe 2 cases of pulmonary edema in abused infants, 1 after confessed suffocation and the other after inflicted head injury. A review of the literature regarding postobstructive and neurogenic pulmonary edema suggests useful inferences for the forensic evaluation of maltreated children who present with this finding.
