Cards

Term
What are the three general findings seen in restrictive interstital lung disease?
Definition

decreased lung compliance

decreased diffusion

decreased lung volumes

Term
What do the acute interstitial lung diseases eventually result in, which is different compared tothe chronic diseases?
Definition
granulation and not a scar
Term
What are the three acute interstitial lung diseases discussed in this lecture?
Definition

Bronchiolitis Obliterans Organizing Pneumonia

Adult Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Acute iNterstitial Pneumonia

Term
What disease presents with patchy air spaces on XRAY?
Definition
BOOP
Term
Where is the granulation tissue found in the lungs of a patient with bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneuonia?
Definition
within the bronchiolar/alveolar lumen
Term
What is the prognosis of BOOP?
Definition
good
Term
What are the pnemoconioses?
Definition
chronic interstitial lung diseases caused by inhalation of occupational or enviornmental agents
Term
What are the three pnemoconioses discussed in this lecture?
Definition

asbestosis

silicosis

hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Term
What inhaled substance binds to cellular phospholipids and causes death of macrophages?
Definition
Silicosis
Term
What are the two types of silicosis?
Definition

Simple Nodular Silicosis

Progressive Massive Silicosis

Term
What disease presents with eggshell calcification?  Where is eggshell calcification located?
Definition

Simple nodular silicosis

 

the eggshell calcification is located around the nodules

Term
How do you generally diagnois silicosis?
Definition
by XRAY
Term
Within the nodule of simple nodular silicosis, where is the collagen located?
Definition
in the center (concentric)
Term
What disease are you predisposed to when you have silicosis?
Definition
TB
Term
What is the most common type of interstitial lung disease?
Definition
Pneumoconioses
Term
Which asbestos particle is the one that gets into the lungs of patients causing asbestosis?  Why?
Definition
amphabole  because it is small and needle like
Term

What type of fibrosis is seen in the following:

 

Silicosis?

Asbestosis?

Hypersenstiivity Pneumonitis?

Definition

 

Silicosis: nodular fibrosis

Asbestosis: diffuse fibrosis

Hypersenstiivity Pneumonitis: Granulomatous

Term
What are asbestos bodies?
Definition
a macrophage with a part of the ingested amphabole covered in hemosiderin
Term
Which two categories can hypersensitivity Pneumonitis be broken down to?
Definition
acute and chronic
Term
Which pneumoconioses causes granulomatous fibrosis?
Definition
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Term
How is chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis diagnosised?
Definition
biopsy
Term
Which interstitial lung diseases (we talked about 4) can progress to honeycomb lung?
Definition

asbestosis

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

usual interstitial pneumonia

sarcoidosis

Term
What type of hypersensitivity is hypersensitivity pneumonitis?
Definition
3 and 4 combined
Term
In a lung that has honeycomb lung, what do you want to avoid when taking the biopsy?
Definition
You want to biopsy a part of the lung w/o honeycomb to assure a smaple of the lung where the disease can be determined
Term
WHat is the second most common interstitial lung disease?
Definition
sarcodosis
Term
What is the most common idiopathic interstitial lung disease?
Definition
usual interstitial pneumonia
Term
WHat are the four idiopathic interstitial lung diesease discussed in the lecture?
Definition

usual interstitial pneumonia

desquamative interstitial pneumonitis

respiratory bronchiolitis interstial lung disease

nonspecific interstitial pneumonia

Term
What is true of the age of lesions in usual interstitial pneumonia?
Definition
they are of different ages
Term
What are the two types of lesions seen in usual interstitial pneumonia at the time of diagnosis?
Definition

honeycomb lesions (late)

lesions w/ fibroblast foci (early)

Term
Which disease presents with a small, stiff, and cobblestone appearling lung?
Definition
usual interstitial pneumonia
Term
What is the prognosis of usual interstitial pneumonia?
Definition
VERY bad
Term
WHere is the honeycombing located in usual interstitial pneumonia?
Definition
subpleural
Term
Which idiopathic interstitial lung disease presents with widespread macrophange involvement and which presents with peribroncholar marcrophage?
Definition

widespread: desquamative interstitial pneumonitis

Peribronchiolar: Respiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease

Term
What are desquamative interstitial pneumonitis and prespiratory bronchiolitis interstitial lung disease closely associated with?
Definition
smoking
Term
What disease among other organ involvment has both lymph node and lung involvement and is most common in AA women?
Definition
Sarcoidosis
Term
Which lymph nodes are involved in sarcodosis?
Definition
hilar
Term
Which two disease have diffuse interstital reticulonodular infiltrates?
Definition

sarcodosis

asbestosis

Term
What type of immune T cells are involved in sarcoidosis?
Definition
CD4
Term
What type of fibrosis occurs in sarcoidosis?
Definition
granuloma
Term
Where is most of the fibrosis found in sarcoidosis?
Definition
submucosa
Term
Why can you do a transbronchial biopsy in sarcoidosis?
Definition
because the granulomas are located in the submucosa of the bronchioles
Term
What two types of bodies are found in sarcoidosis?
Definition
schaumann and asteriod bodies
Term
What are schaumann bodies?
Definition
they are calcium concretions
Term
What must you culture for in a patient suspected to have Sarcoidosis to rule out other disease?
Definition

TB

Fungi

Term
Which interstitial disease is S-100 positive?
Definition
pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma
Term
Which disease presents with langerhans granuloma cells?
Definition
Pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma
Term
How can pulmonary eosinophilc granuloma be diagnosised?
Definition

CT

Bronchoalveolar lavage

Term
What is the deficiency in Alveolar proteinosis?
Definition
GM-CSF
Term
Which disease presents with a crazy paving pattern?
Definition
alveolar proteinosis
Term
What is the problem in alveolar proteinosis?
Definition
no GF-CSF so no macrophages to clean up surfactant, so increased surfactant
Term
What type of immune response is good pasture syndrome?
Definition
type II
Term
What is the difference between goodpasture syndrome and idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis?
Definition
idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis has no kidney involvement
