Desquamative interstitial pneumonia, abbreviated DIP, is a diffuse lung disease that is strongly associated with smoking.
The term desquamative interstitial pneumonia is a misnomer. The airspace cells that characterize the condition were once thought to represent desquamated epithelial cells, but they are now know to represent macrophages.[1]
General
- Rare.[2]
- Strong association with smoking.[3][4]
- Thought to be advanced RBILD.
- May be seen in non-smokers (up to ~40% of cases) due to occupational exposures, drugs, viral illnesses and autoimmune diseases.[5]
Diagnosis:
- Requires - surgical biopsy.[5]
Treatment:
- Stop smoking/remove or manage underlying cause.
Gross/Radiology
Features:[6]
- Ground glass (airspace changes).
- Usually peripheral predominant (~60% of cases) and lower lobe predominant (~70-75% of cases).
- Typically all lobes are involved - though upper lobe spared in ~20% of cases.
- Fibrotic (radiologic) changes ~50% of cases.
Microscopic
Features:[2]
- Abundant airspace macrophages - usually with brown pigment (so called smoker's macrophages) - key feature.
- Interstitial inflammation or interstitial fibrosis with a preserved architecture - so called "linear fibrosis".
Notes:
- Some fields of view may be indistinguishable from RBILD.
