The term occupational lung disease encompasses the broad category of airway, lung parenchymal, and pleural disorders that occur due to the inhalation of natural occurring and manmade agents of various chemical and physical compositions. This chapter will describe the classic mineral dust exposures of asbestos, silica, and coal. In addition, examples of

Eosinophils are involved in the pathogenesis of a number of lung diseases. Recent advances in eosinophil biology have now produced clinically applicable therapies that seek to counter eosinophilia in blood and lungs. This article reviews the basic biology of eosinophils and their role in mediating T-helper 2 cell responses.

Interstitial lung disease in children is a complex group of disorders whose etiology and pathogenesis is not entirely clear. Although the basic pathogenesis has been extrapolated from adult studies, its relevance in the pediatric population can be questioned.

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on occupational lung diseases. The interaction of cigarette smoking and asbestos exposure in causing of lung cancer has been a subject of interest. It has been clear for some time that asbestos workers who smoke are at a great risk of developing lung cancer.

Cystic lung disease is divided into congenital and acquired lesions. Congenital cystic lung disease includes several malformations with distinct anatomical and histological features. There is significant overlap between these lesions to suggest a common pathologic mechanism for their occurrence. Congenital cystic lung lesions include cystic adenomatoid

The eosinophilic lung diseases may manifest as chronic eosinophilic pneumonia, acute eosinophilic pneumonia, or as the Löffler syndrome (generally of parasitic etiology). The diagnosis of eosinophilic pneumonia is made when both characteristic clinical-imaging features and alveolar eosinophilia are present.

Accurate diagnosis of eosinophilic lung diseases is essential to optimizing patient outcomes, but remains challenging. Signs and symptoms frequently overlap among the disorders, and because these disorders are infrequent, expertise is difficult to acquire. Still, these disorders are not rare, and most clinicians periodically encounter patients with one

A 20-year-old female Ethiopian refugee presented with a 6-month history of cough and progressive left shoulder tip pain. After extensive investigation, which failed to demonstrate a cause, she proceeded to thoracotomy, where a 25-cm length of tubing was found that had perforated the left hemidiaphragm and had extended into the apex of the left lung ...
