Thank you for your email. Medical Background: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a common term that includes more than 130 chronic lung disorders. When a person has ILD, the lung is affected in three ways. First, the lung tissue is damaged in some known or unknown way. Second, the walls of the air sacs in the lung become inflamed. Finally, scarring (or fibrosis) begins in the interstitium (or tissue between the air sacs), and the lung becomes stiff. Breathlessness during exercise can be one of the first symptoms of these diseases. A dry cough may also be present. These are common symptoms that many people ignore. Someone with these symptoms may wait until they feel quite ill before going to the doctor. People with different types of ILD may have the same kind of symptoms but their symptoms may vary in severity. Their chest x-rays may look alike. Further testing is recommended to identify the specific type of ILD a person has. Some ILDs have known causes and some have unknown (idiopathic) causes. The tissue between the air sacs of the lungs is called the " interstitium. " Interstitial lung disease is named after this tissue because this is the tissue affected by fibrosis (scarring). Interstitial lung disease is sometimes also known as " interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. " The terms interstitial lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis and interstitial pulmonary fibrosis are often used to describe the same condition. While the progress and the symptoms of these diseases may vary from person to person, there is one common link between the many forms of ILD. They all begin with an inflammation. The inflammation may affect different parts of the lung, as explained below: The walls of the bronchioles (small airways). When inflamation involves the bronchioles, it is called bronchiolitis. The walls and air spaces of the alveoli (air sacs). When inflammation involves the alveoli, it is called alveolitis. The small blood vessels (capillaries) of the lungs. When inflammation involves the small blood vessels, it is called vasculitis. Inflammation of these parts of the lung may heal or may lead to permanent scarring of the lung tissue. When scarring of the lung tissue takes place, the condition is called pulmonary fibrosis. Fibrosis, or scarring of the lung tissue, results in permanent loss of that tissue's ability to breathe and carry oxygen. The level of disability that a person experiences depends on the amount of scarring of the tissue. This is because the air sacs, as well as the lung tissue between and surrounding the air sacs, and the lung capillaries, are destroyed by the formation of scar tissue. If this happens, the attending physician may prescribe oxygen to help the patient breathe easier. Several causes of pulmonary fibrosis are known. They include: Occupational and environmental exposures to irritants such as asbestos, Silica and metal dusts, bacteria and animal dusts, gases and fumes. Some diseases include asbestosis and silicosis. The diseases are often named after the occupations with which they are associated: -Grain handlier's lung -Mushroom worker's lung -Bagassosis -Detergent worker's lung -Maple bark stripper's lung -Malt worker's lung -Paprika splitter's lung -Bird breeder's lung Infections. Lung scarring may be related to many infections. Tuberculosis is one example. Drugs. Certain medicines may have the undesirable side effect of causing pulmonary fibrosis. Check with your doctor about the medicines you are taking and ask about any possible side effects. Connective tissue or collagen diseases such as -Rheumatoid Arthritis, Systemic Sclerosis and Systemic -Lupus Erythematosis Genetic/familial. This is not as common as the other causes listed.
