Define Interstitial Lung Disease
*** |
Group of pathologically similar disease states that involve extensive alteration and disruption of ***distal lung parenchyma***
|
|
what 2 lung structures are affected in interstitial lung disease?
|
Parenchyma
Connective tissue |
|
What is the clinical presentation of interstitial lung disease?
** |
Primary complaint is dyspnea usually first with exertion then at rest
Many have a dry spasmodic cough May hear “Velcro” rales – generally in inspiration Later in course can see digital clubbing Can have a normal CXR initially Chest pain, wheeze and hemoptysis are unusual presenting complaints |
|
if you hear a velcro sound in inspiration what should you be thinking
|
interstitial lung disease
|
|
Peribronchovascular sheaths
|
connective tissue surrounding the bronchi and the vascular bundles
|
|
Interlobular septae
|
tissue in between the secondary lobules
|
|
Causes of ILD ?
*** read this |
Collagen Vascular Diseases
Drug induced Occupational/enviormental *** |
|
please give an overview of interstitial lung disease, giving the 4 steps
*** |
1) Epithelial basement cell membrane injury
2) Influx of inflammatory cells 3) Increased expression of fibroblasts 4) Accumulation of extra cellular matrix Continuation of injury by cascade of pro-inflammatory cytokines and/or continued exposure to inciting drug or event |
|
how do you get a diagnosis of interstitial lung disease?
|
BIOPSY of lung
|
|
what is the treatment for Talc lung disease (3)
|
Oxygen & avoidance of initiating factors
Steroids to reverse cellular inflammation and fibroblast proliferation |
|
if you see a noncaseating granuloma in the lung what should you be thinking?
**** |
Sarcoidosis
|
|
Chronic multi-organ inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology
Tissue infiltration by monocytes and lymphocytes and noncaseating granulomas which mainly affect the lungs and lymphatics this describes? |
sarcoidosis
|
|
what are the possible outcomes of sarcoidosis?
|
1/3 will have spontaneous remission
1/3 will not progress 1/3 progress in organ dysfunction |
|
what guides various biopsy techniques?
** |
Location of lymph node involvement
|
|
what is lupus pernio?
what is it consistent with? |
Lupus pernio – violaceous indurating skin lesion affective chiefly the nose and facial skin
consistent with Chronic Disease (sarcoidoisis) |
|
inhalation and deposition of coal dust into the lungs causes what?
|
Pneumoconiosis
|
|
the following describes....
Small rounded opacities on CXR Occur after normal dust particle clearing mechanisms are overwhelmed Nodules are a collection of dust-laden macrophages around a dilated bronchiole Involved with focal enlargement of local airspaces - emphysema |
Simple Coal Workers Pneumoconiosis
|
|
what distinuguishes progressive massive fibrosis from simple coal worker pneumoconiosis?
|
Diagnosis of Progressive Massive Fibrosis made when one of the coal macules reaches 2cm or greater in size
|
|
if you are coughing up black stuff what do you have
|
Progressive Massive Fibrosis
or you are a crack smoker (I SMOKE ROCKS) |
|
if you have exposure to silica (such as coal worker or power sander) what do you have an increased risk for?
|
TB
|
|
dude works in the boiler room of a shipyard. What is this uka gonna get?
|
Asbestosis
|
|
egg shell calcification of hilar nodes is associated with?
|
Silicosis
|
|
What are the 2 types of pneumoconiosis?
*** |
Coal Workers Pneumoconiosis
Progressive Massive Fibrosis (more likely to progress even after removal of exposure) |
|
How do you define the etiology of interstitial lung disease?
*** |
Biopsy
