Diagnostic Accuracy of Endobronchial Optical Coherence Tomography for the Microscopic Diagnosis of Usual Interstitial Pneumonia. [PDF]
RATIONALE Early, accurate diagnosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) informs prognosis and therapy, especially in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Current diagnostic methods are imperfect. HRCT resolution is limited while surgical lung biopsy (SLB)

Usual Interstitial Pneumonia Pattern Interstitial Lung Disease Developed in a Patient with IgG4-related Chronic Sclerosing Sialadenitis. [PDF]
A 69-year-old man was diagnosed with immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) at 62 years old. At that time, he had high serum IgG4 levels and bilateral submandibular gland swelling on CT; thus, a gland biopsy was performed.

Background Usual interstitial pneumonia can present with a probable pattern on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), but the probability of identifying usual interstitial pneumonia by surgical lung biopsy in such cases remains controversial.

Following the introduction of a novel pathological concept of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) by Liebow and Carrington in 1969, diffuse interstitial pneumonia has evolved into UIP, nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), and interstitial lung ...

Acute exacerbation of pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis with lower lobe usual interstitial pneumonia: An autopsy case [PDF]
An 87-year-old man presented with dyspnea. Computed tomography revealed progressive subpleural consolidation in the apex, reticular shadows in the lower lobes, and bilateral ground glass opacifications. He died of respiratory failure on day 3.

Bimodal fibrosis in a novel mouse model of bleomycin-induced usual interstitial pneumonia. [PDF]
A novel mouse model of induced-usual interstitial pneumonia shows bimodal fibrosis with honeycombing, similar to chronic lung disease seen with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

The histologic diagnosis of usual interstitial pneumonia of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Where we are and where we need to go. [PDF]
In the 50 years since its inception by Dr. Liebow, the diagnosis of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) by pathologists has changed significantly. This manuscript reviews the progressive history of the histologic diagnosis of UIP and summarizes the ...

Senescence and autophagy in usual interstitial pneumonia of different etiology. [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a disease with a dismal prognosis. Currently, the causing agent(s) are poorly understood. Recent data suggest that senescence and autophagy might play a role in its development, as well as changes in metabolism due ...
