This book is a comprehensive reference on diffuse cystic lung
diseases (DCLDs). DCLDs are a group of pathophysiologically
heterogenous processes that are characterized by the presence of
multiple spherical or irregularly shaped, thin-walled, air-filled
spaces within the pulmonary parenchyma. In recent years, tremendous
advancements have been made in these diseases leading to improved
understanding of the underlying pathophysiology, and improved
outcomes with targeted therapies. The authors, who are leading
experts in the field, delineate DCLDs as a separate category
distinct from other interstitial lung diseases, and have created
this textbook specifically dedicated to this disease group. This
book begins with a chapter introducing the definition and
classification of DCLDs. Subsequent chapters address the pathogenic
mechanisms underlying pulmonary cyst formation and provide a
detailed overview of the radiological and pathological features of
DCLDs. The common as well as uncommon causes of DCLDs are
comprehensively reviewed in individual chapters, as are the varied
clinical presentations and extrapulmonary manifestations, and
approaches to management and treatment. The book culminates in a
final chapter that presents a practical algorithmic approach to
diagnosis that progresses from least invasive to most invasive
approaches. This textbook provides a one-stop, comprehensive and
integrated, clinical, radiologic, and pathologic overview of DCLDs
that will be as useful to the practicing clinician as it is to the
clinical investigator.
