IDIOPATHIC PULMONARY FIBROSIS

Alternate names

IDIOPATHIC PULMONARY FIBROSIS Is also known as cfa, uip, usual interstitial pneumonia, interstitial pneumonitis, usual, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, familial, cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis, fibrosing alveolitis, cryptogenic, fibrocystic pulmonary dysplasia

Description

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a nonneoplastic pulmonary disease that is characterized by the formation of scar tissue within the lungs in the absence of any known cause.

Most common symptoms of IDIOPATHIC PULMONARY FIBROSIS

  • Neoplasm
  • Hypertension
  • Fever
  • Respiratory insufficiency
  • Respiratory distress

DIFFUSE PANBRONCHIOLITIS

Alternate names

DIFFUSE PANBRONCHIOLITIS Is also known as pblt, dpb

Description

Diffuse panbronchiolitis is a rare chronic inflammatory obstructive pulmonary disease primarily affecting the respiratory bronchioles throughout both lungs and inducing sinobronchial infection. Onset occurs in the second to fifth decade of life and manifests by chronic cough, exertional dyspnea, and sputum production. Most patients also have chronic paranasal sinusitis

Most common symptoms of DIFFUSE PANBRONCHIOLITIS

  • Respiratory insufficiency
  • Dilatation
  • Respiratory failure
  • Weight loss
  • Dyspnea
