Diffuse Infiltrative Lung Disease
In this topic, we will deal with conditions that tend to 1) involve both the lungs diffusely, and 2) primarily produce abnormalities of the pulmonary parenchyma (as opposed to the airways and blood vessels, which are dealt with elsewhere). All diseases may be classified by anatomic, physiologic, and clinical schemes. In pathology, we tend to work from anatomic classifications in understanding t...

The authors reviewed the case notes and histology of patients under 18 yrs who had had an open lung biopsy in 1991-1998 for inves...
متن کاملOpen lung biopsy for diffuse parenchymal lung disease in children.
An open lung biopsy was performed in 12 children with diffuse parenchymal lung disease. A definitive histopathological diagnosis was obtained from all procedures but determined treatment options in only 10 children (83%). Three (25%) children were ventilated for respiratory failure prior to the procedure. Four (44%) of the other 9 children required ventilatory support after the procedure. Three...

متن کاملDiagnostic imaging of diffuse infiltrative disease of the lung.
Plain chest radiography remains the first diagnostic approach to diffuse infiltrative lung disease but has limited diagnostic sensitivity and specificity. Many diseases remain occult or are not correctly assessed using chest X-ray, appearing as a nonspecific 'reticulonodular pattern'. High-resolution CT (HRCT) is actually the recommended imaging technique in the diagnosis, assessment, and follo...
