Interstitial cystitis: a clinical study of fifty-nine cases.
(1) In the correct clinical setting, a diagnosis of IPF should not be excluded if the CT pattern is more suggestive of another ILD, such as nonspecific
interstitial pneumonia, chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, or sarcoidosis.
All chest HRCT examinations were interperateted and scored by one radiologist who had experience in pulmonary HRCT manifestations of
interstitial lung disease and was blinded to the study design.
An
interstitial pregnancy is an uterine but an ectopic pregnancy, as it is located outside the uterine cavity in the part of the fallopian tube penetrating the muscular layer of the uterus.
Our case was diagnosed to have IIP for the following reasons: (1) her conditions did not suggest known causes of
interstitial lung disease such as drug or inhalational exposure or collagen vascular diseases, (3) and (2) transbronchial biopsy and bronchoalveolar fluid analysis did not show pathogenic findings for hypersensitivity pneumonia, sarcoidosis or eosinophilic pneumonia.
A quantitatively controlled method to study pro-spectively
interstitial cystitis and demonstrate the efficacy of pentosane polysulfate.
reported that four out of 33 patients with CTD-ILD had clubbing, and the prevalence of clubbing in CTD-ILD was significantly lower than in patients with idiopathic
interstitial pneumonia (16 out of 44 patients) [13].
Acute
interstitial nephritis (AIN) is a characteristic inflammatory infiltrate in the renal tubule-interstitium that is a leading cause of acute renal failure.
The
interstitial part of the fallopian tube is the proximal portion located into the muscular wall of the uterus.
Idiopathic
interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) are a heterogeneous group of acute and chronic disorders with varying degrees of inflammation and fibrosis; the etiologies of which are unknown [1].
