  • Front
  • Back
Person (any age/sex) with history of sepsis or multiple gunshot wounds (or multiple blunt trauma, or uremia, etc) develops SUDDEN fulminate respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation.
Diffuse Alveolar Damage, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
35 yo male with Hx of upper respiratory tract infection a few months ago, presents with cough (x a few weeks) which does not resolve with antibiotics, patchy infiltrates on CXR.
Bronchiolitis Obliterans-Organizing Pneumonia (BOOP)

Loose plugs of fibroblastic tissue fill alveolar spaces and bronchi/bronchioles
45 yo black female presents with worsening SOB and cough for several months. Bilateral infiltrates and hilar adenopathy on CXR.
Sarcoidosis

(Non-caseating granulomas)
40-70 yo (male), insidious onset of progressive dyspnea. CXR: bilateral patchy infiltrates, more pronounced in lower lobes and peripheral lung zones. (Temporal heterogeneity.)
Idiopathic interstitial Fibrosis
(Usual Interstitial Pneumonia)

Ultimately fatal.
35 yo male heavy smoker, presents with worsening dyspnea for several months. CXR shows bilateral ground glass infiltrates in lower lobes.
Desquamative Interstitial Pneumonia

** associated with smoking !! **
Excellent outcome.
40 yo female with history of Sjogren's Syndrome, presents worsening SOB/cough for several months.
Lymphocytic Interstitial Pneumonia

Mainly in children w/ AIDS or adult with AIDS/Sjogrens
Lymphoma may complicate
25 yo male heavy smoker, presents with pneumothorax, radiographs shows nodules and cysts
Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis
Person with constant occupational/recreational exposure to allergens. Acute fever, dyspnea, cough, leukocytosis.

* bronchocentric chronic inflammation/fibrosis
* organizing pneumonia
* poorly formed granulomas
Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
(extrinsic allergic alveolitis)

Chronic disease may be independent of allergen exposure.
Transient migratory pulmonary lesions, peripheral blood eosinophils. Minimal symptoms
Simple pulmonary eosiniphilia -- Loeffler's Syndrome

may be associated with ascarid larval migration
High fever, cough, wheezing, dyspnea.
Migratory infiltrates, high peripheral blood eosinophils.
Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia

usu. secondary to migratory parasites (microfilaria)
Acute fulminate like DAD
or
chronic dz with insidious onset
Eosinophilic pneumonia

may be idiopathic or due to underlying infections (fungal, parasitic), drug reactions, inhalant exposure
Bleomycin - pulmonary side effects
Interstitial inflammation and fibrosis
Methotrexate - pulmonary side effects
Interstitial inflammation and fibrosis, with mild granulomatous response
Amiodarone - pulmonary side effects
Pulmonary fibrosis, foamy macrophages
Radiation therapy (thoracic tumors) - pulmonary side effects
Radiation pneumonitis --
Acute: like DAD
Chronic: like UIP

Fibrosis may contain bizarre vacuolated cells and atypical endothelial cells.
Rheumatoid arthritis - secondary lung disease
pleuritis, BOOP, UIP-like fibrosis, rheumatoid nodules.

* rheumatoid nodules + pneumoconiosis == Caplari's Syndrome
SLE - secondary lung disease
pleuritis, DAD, intra-alveolar hemorrhage, interstitial fibrosis.
Scleroderma - secondary lung disease
UIP-like interstitial fibrosis
Sjogren's Syndrome - secondary lung disease
pleuritis, LIP, lymphoma
rapid-progressing glomerulonephritis and hemorrhagic interstitial pneumonia
Goodpasture's Syndrome
young males -- hemoptysis, no renal disease

(anemia in children)
Idiopathis Pulmonary Hemosiderosis
40~ yo male, with chronic sinusitis, hemoptysis, and renal disease. CXR shows bilateral cavitary infiltrates/nodules.

positive c-ANCA in blood

* acute necrotizing granulomas of upper resp. tract
* necrotizing/granulomatous vasculitis
* renal disease (crescentric glomerulonephritis)
Wegener's Granulomatosis

(If no renal dz: "limited WG")

* Churg-Strauss (allergic angiitis and granulomatosis)
- similar to WG, but with eosinophils
- no renal disease
- p-ANCA (not c)
non-specific distress of insidious onset.
Alveolar spaces diffusely filled with granular eosinophilic material (surfactant-like). Resembles pulmonary edema and consolidation of large areas of lung.

May follow silicoproteinosis.
Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis
