CHAPTER 12 RESPIRATORY PATHOLOGY

SPECIMEN TYPES

Bronchoalveolar lavage (Columbo et al 1987, ERSTask force 2000)

ARTEFACTS, INCIDENTAL FINDINGS AND VARIANTS OF NORMAL

MALFORMATIONS AND CYSTIC LUNG LESIONS

(data from Langston 2003)

(data from Langston 2003)

CONGENITAL PULMONARY AIRWAY MALFORMATION

Now expanded to types 0–4 (Table 12.4) and renamed Cystic Pulmonary Airway Malformation (CPAM)

Fig 12.14 CPAM type 1. One-month-old baby girl with cystic lesion in left lower lobe of lung. The excised lobe showed obvious cysts, the largest 1.8cm in diameter. The lining of the cysts resembles that in Fig 12.13 but, in addition, there are areas of mucin-secreting epithelium, with a resemblance to gastric epithelium. Some smooth muscle is evident in the cyst walls.

Fig 12.16 CPAM type 2. Same case as Fig 12.15. A low power view of a section from junction of normal and cystic lung. The multiple small cysts with thin walls are well appreciated as is the relatively well-defined border of the lesion. (H&E)
