Desquamative interstitial pneumonia

Сurrent literature data on the prevalence, features of clinical and histomorphological manifestations of a rare lung pathology — desquamative interstitial pneumonia — are presented. Difficulties in differential diagnosis and treatment of this disease are noted. Own observation is presented.

The most striking histological sign of desquamative interstitial pneumonia is the filling of the lumens of the alveoli with macrophages with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm.
