Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no known life-threatening causes of acute interstitial pneumonitis.

There is no specific etiology (idiopathic), that is responsible for developing acute interstitial pneumonitis.
Acute interstitial pneumonitis can be considered as an idiopathic cause of ARDS.^[1]
On histopathological examination acute interstitial pneumonitis shows diffuse alveolar damage, the known causes of diffuse alveolar damage should be ruled out.

	Diffuse alveolar damage causes
	Infections	Viruses: Influenza, Herpes simplex virus, Cytomegalovirus,Adenovirus, Respiratory syncytial virus, Fungi: Disseminated histoplasmosis, Cryptococcus, Bacteria: Nontuberculous mycobacterial infection
	Connective tissue disorders	Rheumatoid arthritis Polymyositis/dermatomyositis Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) Systemic lupus erythematosus Sjögren syndrome Mixed connective tissue disease Anti-Jo-1 tRNA synthetase syndrome
	Drugs	Amiodarone Bleomycin Busulfan Cocaine Cyclophosphamide Nitrofurantoin Carmustine (BCNU) Cytosine-arabinoside (Ara-C) Sodium aurothiomalate
