Chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HSP) is a common interstitial lung disease resulting from inhalation of a large variety of antigens by susceptible individuals. The disease is best classified as acute and chronic. Chronic HSP can be fibrosing or not. Fibrotic HSP has a large differential diagnosis and has a worse prognosis. The most common etiologies for HSP are reviewed. Diagnostic criteria are p...
متن کاملLung Cancer in Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
Background: So far, the association of lung cancer with chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP) has not been studied. Objective: We examined the prevalence and revealed clinical features of lung cancer in CHP. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records from 1994 through 2005 and identified 11 patients (15 lesions) with lung cancer among 104 patients with CHP. Their clinical fea...

متن کاملEpithelial-mesenchymal transition in chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis.
Chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) causes progressive and irreversible pulmonary fibrosis, a disease also observed in conjunction with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Previous studies have demonstrated that the myofibroblast, a cell type whose origins involve the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), may play a role in the pathogenesis of IPF. The goal of this study was to determ...
متن کاملHypersensitivity pneumonitis
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To bring readers up to date on recent reports, both clinical and basic understanding, on hypersensitivity pneumonitis. RECENT FINDINGS Although many antigens and environmental settings have already been described as sources of this hyperimmune pulmonary disease, the literature continues to bring forth other conditions that can cause hypersensitivity pneumonitis. We also high...
