  2. Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Pulmonary_hyalinizing_granuloma

    Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma is characterized by localized changes in lung architecture determined by deposition of hyaline collagenous fibrosis accompanied by sparse lymphocytic infiltrate that compresses and distorts the remaining bronchioles. A higher magnification, the mass is composed by hypocellular collagen lamellae. [3]

  3. Granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granuloma

    "Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma" is a lesion characterized by keloid-like fibrosis in the lung and is not granulomatous. Similarly, radiologists often use the term granuloma when they see a calcified nodule on X-ray or CT scan of the chest. They make this assumption since granulomas usually contain calcium, although the cells that form a ...

  4. Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulomatous–lymphocytic...

    It has been defined histologically as the presence of (non-caseating) granuloma and lymphoproliferation in the lung. [1] However, as GLILD is often associated with other auto-immune features such as splenomegaly , adenopathy and cytopenias , a definition based on abnormalities on lung imaging (CT scan) together with evidence of granulomatous ...

  5. Granulomatosis with polyangiitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulomatosis_with...

    These granulomas are the main reason for the name granulomatosis with polyangiitis, although it is not an essential feature. Nevertheless, necrotizing granulomas are a hallmark of this disease. However, many biopsies can be nonspecific and 50% provide too little information for the diagnosis of GPA. [12]

  6. Berylliosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berylliosis

    Granuloma formation is seen in other diseases such as tuberculosis and sarcoidosis. Sarcoidosis, like berylliosis, also produces granulomas without a necrotic core, and so distinction between the two processes can be difficult. Ultimately, this process leads to restrictive lung disease (a decrease in diffusion capacity).

  7. Lung nodule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_nodule

    A lung nodule or pulmonary nodule is a relatively small focal density in the lung. A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) or coin lesion, [1] is a mass in the lung smaller than three centimeters in diameter. A pulmonary micronodule has a diameter of less than three millimetres. [2] There may also be multiple nodules.

  9. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersensitivity_pneumonitis

    [9] [10] In general, acute HP is suspected to be attributed to a type III hypersensitivity while the subacute and chronic types are suspected to be caused by T cell infiltration and granuloma formation. [11] Because different people react variably to antigen exposure, the exact mechanism is unclear but genetic and host factors are likely at ...
