Q

What is a second mechanism of pathogenesis for IPF UIP

25
microscopically what do you see in Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF
- fibroblastic foci initially - later dense fibrosis and cystic spaces - HONEYCOMB - abrupt transition between fibrosis and normal lung - temporal heterogeneity
26
later clinical features of Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)
cyanosis and clubbing
27
microscopically what does nonspecific interstitial pneumonia look like
cellular - interstitial inflammation fibrosing patterns without temporal heterogeneity if UIP no fibroblastic foci or honeycomb lung

how is nonspecific interstitial pneumonia treated
steroids
