Q

What are the three types of pneumonia?

A

Acute Pneumonia - usually pyogenic bacteria, neutrophils
Pneumoitis - “atypical pneumonia” non pyogenic (viral or mycoplasmal)
Chronic Pneumonia - Often TB, fungi, parasites, odd bacteria

Q

Describe progression of Lobar Pneumonia

A

Congestion: Heavy and congested lungs, vasc. engorged
Red Hepatization: Exudation of RBCs/fibrin
Gray Hepatization: RBCs break down, exudate remains
Resolution: Consolidation eaten up

Q

What is the pathogenic mechanism of atypical pneumonia

A

Binds to epithelium, necrosis of cells, inflammatory response, predisposes to secondary bacterial infection, severe cases can progress to ARDS

Q

Describe Sarcoidosis disease process

A

Increased CD4+ TH1 cells, increased IL-2 and IFN g, Increased macrophages, Increased IL-8 and TNF, which causes non caseating granulomas, leading to interstitial fibrosis and honeycomb lung. Black ladies
NON SMOKERS
Genetic component - HLA

Q

What are some unique cells seen in sarcoidosis?

A

Asteroid bodies, and schauman bodies

17
Q

What are some treatments for sarcoidosis?

A

Corticosteroids

Prognosis is favorable

18
Q

Describe Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

A
#1 Occupational pneumonia-allergic, Restrictive, attacks the alveoli/interstitim. 2/3 have RBC leak.
Caused by thermophilic bacteria, fungi, bacterial stuff
19
Q

Describe the two types of Hypersenstivity Pneumonitis

A

Acute- large antigen exposure, neutrophils, resolves on its own
Chronic - Prolonged exposure, gradual symptoms, mononuclear infiltration, fibrosis

20
Q

What types of hypersensitivity is hypersensitivity pneumonitis?

A

Type III early - antibodies

Type 4 later- Form non caseating granulomas and fibrosis

21
Q

How Diagnose Sarcoidosis?

A

Biopsy-Non-caseating granulomas, Special stain, Culture
BAL - CD4+ cells, macrophages
CXR - bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy

22
Q

How Diagnose Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis?

A

BAL - CD4+ and CD8+ cells

Farmers lung, pidgeon breeders lung, humidifier

23
Q

How do you treat Hypersensitiity Pneumonitis?

A

Remove from allergens

24
Q

Describe Silo Fillers disease

A

NO NO2 exposure from silos, causes pulmonary edema and Bronchiolitis obliterans

25
Q

Describe Desquamative Interstitial Pneumonia

A

SMOKERS
Gradual dyspnea/dry cough
INcreased intraalveolar macrophages + Type 2 pneumocytes
Minimal fibrosis

26
Q

What is the treatment for DIP?

A

Steroids

27
Q

Describe Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis

A

CXR - patchy opacification
accumulation of surfactant
Minimal inflammatory response
Have a white “jello” sputum

28
Q

What is the treatment for PAP?

A

Whole lung lavage therapy
