Overview
There is no specific etiology (idiopathic), that is responsible for developing acute interstitial pneumonitis.
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.
| Diffuse alveolar damage causes | |
|---|---|
| Infections[2][3] | Viruses: Influenza, Herpes simplex virus, Cytomegalovirus, Adenovirus, Respiratory syncytial virus.
Fungi: Disseminated histoplasmosis, Cryptococcus. Bacteria: Nontuberculous mycobacterial infection |
| Connective tissue disorders[4][5] | Rheumatoid arthritis
Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) Mixed connective tissue disease Anti-Jo-1 tRNA synthetase syndrome |
| Drugs[6] | Amiodarone
Carmustine (BCNU) Cytosine-arabinoside (Ara-C) |
| Organ transplantation | |
| Aspiration | |
| Oxygen toxicity[7] |
