Bronchiolar disorders in adults

Bronchiolar disorders in adults
Disorder Clinical features HRCT Histopathology
Bronchiolitis obliterans (also called constrictive bronchiolitis/obliterative bronchiolitis) Dyspnea, cough; PFTs normal or show airflow limitation without bronchodilator reversibility; predisposing process (eg, inhalational or drug exposure, rheumatic disease, lung or hematopoietic transplant)
  • Mosaic attenuation
  • Air trapping seen on inspiratory and expiratory views
  • Bronchial wall-thickening (eg, "v" or "y" shaped branching linear opacities)
  • Centrilobular nodules
  • Constrictive bronchiolitis: concentric narrowing or complete obliteration of airway lumen
  • Bronchiolar hypertrophy
  • Bronchiolectasis
  • Few lymphocytes
Proliferative bronchiolitis (organizing pneumonia) Usually seen in the context of cryptogenic or secondary organizing pneumonia or nitrogen dioxide exposure
  • Peripheral, patchy air-space consolidation or ground-glass opacities, small nodular opacities, and bronchial wall thickening with dilation
  • Fibroblast proliferation and an organizing, polypoid intraluminal exudate in respiratory bronchioles and alveolar ducts
  • Foamy macrophages in alveoli
Follicular bronchiolitis Progressive dyspnea; associated with rheumatic diseases, immunodeficiency, hypersensitivity pneumonitis
  • Centrilobular nodules; may have patchy ground glass opacity
  • Lymphoid hyperplasia of bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue; germinal centers
Respiratory bronchiolitis Almost exclusively in smokers; asymptomatic finding on biopsy performed for another reason
  • Ill-defined centrilobular nodules
  • Patchy ground-glass opacities
  • Air-trapping
  • "Tree-in-bud" opacities
  • Mild bronchiolar inflammation, tan-pigmented macrophages within the lumens of first and second order respiratory bronchioles
  • Tan-pigmented macrophages in the respiratory bronchioles
  • Patchy submucosal and peribronchiolar infiltrate of lymphocytes and histiocytes
Airway-centered interstitial fibrosis Chronic nonproductive cough; usually seen in smokers; PFTs restrictive or obstructive; percentage of lymphocytes on bronchoalveolar lavage is less than 40%
  • Peribronchovascular ground glass opacities, traction bronchiectasis, and thickening of bronchial walls
  • Centrilobular and bronchiolocentric inflammatory infiltrate with peribronchiolar fibrosis and an absence of granulomas
Diffuse panbronchiolitis History of sinusitis (75%) and productive cough; generally limited to patients in Japan
  • Centrilobular nodules
  • "Tree-in-bud" opacities
  • Thickened and dilated bronchiolar walls (bronchiolectasis)
  • Large cystic opacities are a late finding
  • Bronchiolar transmural infiltrate composed of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and distinctive lipid-laden "foamy" macrophages
HRCT: high resolution computed tomography; PFTs: pulmonary function tests.
