  2. Lung nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_nodule

    The most common benign coin lesion is a granuloma (inflammatory nodule), for example due to tuberculosis or a fungal infection, such as Coccidioidomycosis. [6] Other infectious causes include a lung abscess, pneumonia (including pneumocystis pneumonia) or rarely nocardial infection or worm infection (such as dirofilariasis or dog heartworm ...

  3. Tumor-like disorders of the lung pleura - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor-like_Disorders_of...

    On radiological studies, a pleural pseudotumor is visualized as a biconcave or lenticular lesion using conventional chest x-rays and CT scans. The lesion is most commonly located in the minor (horizontal) fissure of the lung. A pleural pseudotumor is also associated with the presence of dependent pleural effusions. [9]

  4. Lung cavity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_cavity

    Pneumonia can lead to the development of a lung abscess, [4] which is a pus-containing necrotic lesion of the lung parenchyma (lung tissue). [5] On CT scan of the chest, a lung abscess appears as an intermediate- or thick-walled cavity with or without an air-fluid level (a flat line separating the air in the cavity from the fluid). [ 4 ]

  5. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphangioleiomyomatosis

    In general, lung cysts were larger and more numerous in women than in men. [135] In a further retrospective study of women with TSC who underwent CT scanning to detect LAM, 25% of those in their 20s had lung cysts whereas 80% of women in their 40s were affected, suggesting that the development of LAM is age dependent at least in tuberous ...

  6. Respiratory disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_disease

    Respiratory diseases, or lung diseases, [1] are pathological conditions affecting the organs and tissues that make gas exchange difficult in air-breathing animals. They include conditions of the respiratory tract including the trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, pleurae, pleural cavity, the nerves and muscles of respiration.

  7. Adenocarcinoma in situ of the lung - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenocarcinoma_in_situ_of...

    Adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) of the lung —previously included in the category of "bronchioloalveolar carcinoma" (BAC)—is a subtype of lung adenocarcinoma.It tends to arise in the distal bronchioles or alveoli and is defined by a non-invasive growth pattern.

  8. Pleurisy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleurisy

    Lung procedures, like surgery, drainage of fluid with a needle, examination of the lung from the inside with a light and a camera, or mechanical ventilation, also can cause a pneumothorax. The most common symptom is sudden pain in one side of the lung and shortness of breath. A pneumothorax also can put pressure on the lung and cause it to ...

  9. Pneumatocele - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pneumatocele

    A pneumatocele is a cavity in the lung parenchyma filled with air that may result from pulmonary trauma during mechanical ventilation. [1] Gas-filled, or air-filled lesions in bone are known as pneumocysts. [2] When a pneumocyst is found in a bone it is called an intraosseous pneumocyst, or a vertebral pneumocyst when found in a vertebra. [3]
