American thoracic society/European respiratory society international multidisciplinary consensus classification of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias

TL;DR: The Diagnostic Process Is Dynamic Clinical Evaluation Radiological Evaluation Role of Surgical Lung Biopsy Unclassifiable Interstitial Pneumonia Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Evaluation Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Interstitial lung disease guideline: the British Thoracic Society in collaboration with the Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand and the Irish Thoracic Society.

TL;DR: Since the publication of the first BTS guidelines for diffuse lung disease nearly 10 years ago, the specialty has seen considerable change and has led to a radical change in accepted diagnostic gold standards, which have become increasingly multidisciplinary and dependent equally upon the skills of pathologists, radiologists and clinicians.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cryptogenic organising pneumonia

TL;DR: Organising pneumonia is defined histopathologically by intra-alveolar buds of granulation tissue, consisting of intermixed myofibroblasts and connective tissue, and rapid clinical and imaging improvement is obtained with corticosteroid treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias: CT Features

TL;DR: Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias comprise usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), nonspecific interstitialneumonias (NSIP), desquamative interstitial lungs disease (DIP), respiratory bronchiolitis-associated interstitial lung disease (RB-ILD), cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP), acute interinterstitial pneumonia (AIP), and lymphoid interInterstitial pneumonia (LIP).
Journal ArticleDOI

Cavitary Pulmonary Disease

TL;DR: The goal is to provide the clinician and clinical microbiologist with an overview of the diseases most commonly associated with lung cavities, with attention to the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of the host.

Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia.

TL;DR: In 50 of 94 patients with bronchiolitis obliterans, the authors found no apparent cause or associated disease, and the bronchiola obliterans occurred with patchy organizing pneumonia, which was confused most often with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cryptogenic organizing pneumonitis.

TL;DR: Eight patients with histological intra-alveolar organization, but no evidence of an infective or other aetiological agent, are reported, and the term cryptogenic organizing pneumonitis is suggested to avoid confusion with post-infective organizing pneumonia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lung biopsy in rheumatoid arthritis.

TL;DR: Five different groups based on histologic patterns were identified: pulmonary rheumatoid nodules, usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), bronchiolitis obliterans with patchy organizing pneumonia (BOOP), lymphoid hyperplasia, and cellular interstitial infiltrates.
Journal Article

The role of intraalveolar fibrosis in the process of pulmonary structural remodeling in patients with diffuse alveolar damage.

TL;DR: Morphometry showed that intraalveolar fibrosis developed in the early proliferative stage and was more prominent than interstitial fibrosis and was the essential factor in the remodels of pulmonary structural remodeling in fibrotic lungs.
