Desquamative Interstitial Pneumonia: Pathological Findings and Follow-Up in 13 Patients

Desquamative Interstitial Pneumonia: Pathological Findings and Follow-Up in 13 Patients Abstract Of 13 patients having desquamative interstitial pneumonia, six patients had abnormal serum antibody levels for extrapulmonary symptoms, while eight patients had interstitial fibrosis as a histological feature. Follow-up has shown that three patients died of disease and one shows progressive pulmonary insufficiency. The presence of pulmonary fibrosis in the biopsy specimen correlated with the clinical outcome. References 1. Liebow AA, et al: Desquamative interstitial pneumonia.

Abstract

Abstract Of 13 patients having desquamative interstitial pneumonia, six patients had abnormal serum antibody levels for extrapulmonary symptoms, while eight patients had interstitial fibrosis as a histological feature. Follow-up has shown that three patients died of disease and one shows progressive pulmonary insufficiency. The presence of pulmonary fibrosis in the biopsy specimen correlated with the clinical outcome. References 1. Liebow AA, et al: Desquamative interstitial pneumonia.
