Interstitial lung disease in connective tissue disorders.
Some of the most pressing challenges associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) are how best to define, diagnose, and treat connective tissue disease-associated ILD (CTD-ILD)--disorders with potentially substantial morbidity and mortality. In this focused review, we address aspects of prognosis for CTD-ILD and what indices might predict outcome, together with lessons that can be learnt fro...
متن کاملInterstitial lung disease evaluation: detecting connective tissue disease.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common manifestation of connective tissue disease (CTD) and is often associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The evaluation of ILD in patients with CTD is complex because of the heterogeneity of the CTD spectrum, the various patterns and degrees of severity of ILD encountered, and because ILD can be identified at any point in time in these patie...

متن کاملIdiopathic or connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease: a case of HRCT mimicry.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) induces overwhelming morbidity and kills more patients with connective tissue disease (CTD) than any other CTD-related manifestation. Because of this, there is a keen and growing interest in the rheumatology and pulmonary communities to identify prognostic variables for CTDassociated ILD (CTD-ILD). Treatment options for patients with ILD, idiopathic as well as th...
متن کاملTreatment of connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease: the pulmonologist’s point of view
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) occurs in 15% of patients with collagen vascular disease (CVD), referred to as connective tissue disease (CTD). Despite advances in management strategies, ILD continues to be a significant cause of mortality in patients with CVD-associated ILD (CTD-ILD). There is a lack of randomized, clinical trials assessing pharmacological agents for CTD-ILD, except in cases o...
