LECTIN HISTOCHEMISTRY OF CHOLESTEROL CLEFT GRANULOMAS IN NON-SPECIFIC INTERSTITIAL PNEUMONIA (NSIP)
ABSTRACT Background: Cholesterol cleft granulomas with clusters of giant cells were noted to be a common feature of non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). Objective: This study aimed to define the cell populations involved in the granulomas. Methods: The granulomas of 16 patients with cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis (five cases with the histological features ofNSIP, five with those ofUIP...

متن کاملDyskeratosis Congenita Associated Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia
Dyskeratosis Congenita (DC) is a rare inherited disorder of ectodermal dysplasia. It consists of a classical mucocutaneous triad of abnormal skin pigmentation, nail dystrophy and leukoplakia. Pulmonary disease is seen in 10-15%. It is characterized by Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), or Idiopathic Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis (IFPF). Non-specific Interstitial Pneumonia (NSIP) has been report...
متن کاملInfluence of Smoking in Interstitial Pneumonia Presenting with a Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia Pattern
Objective The influence of smoking on the pathogenesis and clinical course of interstitial pneumonia has recently attracted attention. To clarify the influence of smoking on the clinical patient characteristics and therapeutic effects in patients with interstitial pneumonia presenting with a non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern, we compared the clinical patient characteristics and...
متن کاملINTERSTITIAL LUNG DISEASE High serum concentrations of surfactant protein A in usual interstitial pneumonia compared with non-specific interstitial pneumonia
Background: The pathological diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases (ILD) by surgical lung biopsy is important for clinical decision making. There is a need, however, to use serum markers for differentiating usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) from other ILD. Surfactant protein (SP)-A, SP-D, KL-6, sialyl SSEA-1 (SLX), and sialyl Lewis (CA19-9) are useful markers for the diagnosis and evaluation...
