Lec 16 Interstitial Lung Disease Flashcards
What is interstitial lung disease?
heterogenous group of disorders w/ infiltration of interstitium of lungs by fluid, cells, and connective tissue
What are two types of idiopathic chronic fibrosing ILD?
- idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
- idiopathic nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis
What is morphologic pattern of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis?
usual interstitial pneumonia
What is morphologic pattern of idiopathic nonspecific interstitial pneumonia?
nonspecific interstitial pneumonia
What are two types of idiopathic smoking related ILD?
- respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease
- desquamative interstitial pneumonia
What is morphologic pattern of respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease?
respiratory bronchiolitis
What is morphologic pattern of desquamative interstitial pneumonia?
desquamative interstitial pneumonia
What are two types of idiopathic acute/subacute ILD?
- cryptogenic organizing pneumonia
- acute interstitial pneumonia
What is morphologic pattern of cryptogenic organizing pneumonia?
organizing pneumonia
What is morphologic pattern of acute interstitial pneumonia?
diffuse alveolar damage
What happens to PFT/lung volumes in ILD?
- restrictive; impaired gas exchange
- decrease FVC, TLC
- preserved FEV1/FVC
- decrease DLCO
- increase A-a gradient
What happens to DLCO in ILD? A-a gradient?
decreased DLCO
increased Aa gradient
What symptoms in ILD?
nonspecific respiratory symptoms
dyspnea, cough
What are radiographic findings of ILD?
fibrosis: appear as traction bronchiectasis [dilated airways]; reticular densities [linear markings]; honeycombing; cysts
inflammation: ground glass, consolidation
What is most common type of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia?
idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
What is most deadly type of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia?
idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
