- Infectious
Infectious Causes of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Granulomatous Diseases
Inflammation of the lung parenchyma may be replaced
by
- granulation tissue that ends in fibrosis as in TB
Infectious Causes of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Others
- viral pneumonia
- atypical pneumonia
- lung abscess
- bronchiectasis
- non resolving pneumonia
Non-Infectious Causes of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Trauma: as lung contusion.
- After thoracic surgery e.g., lobectomy, thoracoplasty

Signs of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- inspection
Retraction of the affected side.
Signs of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Palpation
- Diminished chest movement of the affected side.
- Mediastinal shift to the same side: trachea and cardiac apex.
- Variable TVF
Signs of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Percussion
Heterogeneous notes
- Impaired percussion note with areas of hyperresonance due to compensatory emphysema.
Signs of Localized Parenchymatous Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Ausculation
- Inspiratory crepitations
- Bronchial breathing
- Cavernous breathing
