1)The term Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis is felt to be a definite entity. 2)This disease is a familial response to chronic pulmonary insult in the nature of bilateral pulmonary fibrosis. 3)The disease, once it manifests itself clinically, is usually progressive to death. 4)The age incidence is from 30 to 55 years.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a steadily progressive and ultimately fatal disease of unknown origin. Recent years have seen advances in our understanding of IPF and a number of guidelines have been published. But many questions remain unanswered, particularly surrounding probable versus definite IPF.

Human Pathology, 1970
Abstract The histopathologic changes in diffuse pulmonary fibrosis are discussed and current nomenclature reviewed. The importance of alveolitis due to hypersensitivity to inhaled organic proteins (allergic alveolitis) has been recognized only recently. The features that distinguish allergic alveolitis from other types of diffuse interstitial fibrosis

Genetics of Pulmonary Fibrosis
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2003Identifying genetic determinants of pulmonary fibrosis is at an early stage of evolution. It is now well recognized that "pulmonary fibrosis" covers a broad range of lung diseases including most topically the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias that have been classified recently.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common fibrosing lung disease and is associated with a very poor prognosis. IPF manifests histopathologically as usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and as subpleural and basal predominant reticulation with honeycombing on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest.

Genetics of Pulmonary Fibrosis
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2002Pulmonary fibrosis is a devastating disease that occurs in association with environmental exposures, several inherited diseases, collagen vascular disease, as well as in an idiopathic form. Epithelial cell damage, excessive fibroblast proliferation, upregulation of extracellular matrix production, and attenuated matrix degradation are shared ...

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1982
SUMMARY Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a precise syndrome defined by clinical, roentgenographic, physiologic, and histopathologic features. Clinically, most patients have a nonproductive cough and dyspnea on exertion. The most common physical finding is the presence of crackles over the lower portions of both lungs; also, there may be clubbing ...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis kills half of its victims within five years of diagnosis. Currently available treatment regimens are disappointing, and the incidence of the disease appears to be increasing. Newer techniques of imaging coupled with laboratory advances in molecular and cellular biology may produce new strategies for modulating the disease ...
