Abstract:
Diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLD), also known as interstitial lung diseases (ILD), are a group of lung disorders affecting alveolar epithelium, pulmonary capillary endothelium, and surrounding lung tissue. Over time due to injury, the tissue around the air sacs becomes fibrotic leading to poor oxygen exchange, eventually resulting in the patient experiencing shortness of breath. This case describes a 69-year old male who presented in 2017 with a complex clinical picture involving both cardiac and pulmonary systems. Drug toxicity was initially thought to be the cause of the patients interstitial lung process; however, ultimately, a diagnosis of UIP was made.
摘要:
弥漫性肺实质疾病(DPLD),也称为间质性肺病(ILD),是一组影响肺泡上皮的肺部疾病,肺毛细血管内皮,和周围的肺组织。随着时间的推移,由于受伤,气囊周围的组织变得纤维化,导致氧气交换不良,最终导致患者呼吸急促。该病例描述了一名69岁的男性,他在2017年出现了涉及心脏和肺系统的复杂临床表现。药物毒性最初被认为是引起患者间质性肺过程的原因;然而,最终,诊断为UIP。
