Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- 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.
Common Causes
- 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.
