of hypostatic bronchopneumonia resulting from cachexia as an end result of carcinoma (cancer) of the liver with generalized abdominal metastasis
Hypostatic bronchopneumonia results from the collection of fluid in the dorsal region of the lungs and occurs especially in those (as the bedridden or elderly) who are confined to a supine position for extended periods. Cachexia, or wasting syndrome, is the loss of weight, muscle atrophy, fatigue, weakness, and significant loss of appetite, often a result of cancer such as the liver carcinoma from which Lottie suffered.
