A discussion of the epidemiology, clinical features, and differential diagnoses of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Key topics include the role of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis, and current treatment options, including medical therapy and lung transplantation.

Written by internationally recognized experts, Pulmonary Hypertension bridges the gap between pulmonology and cardiology to provide clinicians in both disciplines with knowledge of the signs, symptoms, diagnosis, and pharmacologic and surgical treatments for pulmonary hypertension (PH). Through the use of clinical trials, this ground-breaking text supplies a comprehensive review of both the primary and secondary clinical and investigative aspects of this condition. Discussing controversies and concepts in PH diagnosis and management, this guide explores: classification and epidemiology, pathology, pathogenesis, genetics, and diagnosis of PHcauses of the condition, such as idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH)PAH-complicating connective tissue diseases (CTD), congenital heart diseases, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and other disordersthe mechanisms, toxicities, and efficacy of therapeutic agentsthe role of combination therapies, novel agents, and future directionsPH in specific patient populations such as pregnant and critically-ill patients in the ICU

A comprehensive review of clinical and exploratory aspects of lung (LT) and heart-lung transplantation (HLT), this reference focuses on cumulative data from the International Registry with data on outcomes associated with LT and HLT worldwide. Collecting in-depth discussions on graft dysfunction, infectious complications, and indications of LT for specific disease states including emphysema, cystic fibrosis, myriad interstitial lung diseases, and pulmonary hypertension, this guide explores the most current technologies and best practices affecting lung and heart-lung transplant surgeries.

Removing the guesswork associated with Interstitial Lung Disorders (ILDs) and bronchiolar disorders, Interstitial Pulmonary and Bronchiolar Disorders addresses the issues faced by pulmonologists in treating these disorders. Divided into sections based on the disease type (granulomatous, pneumonias, bronchiolar disorders, vasculitis, and orphan lung disease), each disorder is covered from epidemiological, pathogenic, clinical, and radiographic perspectives. The only text on the market today that deals with the entire spectrum of ILDs, this handy, one-stop reference includes: a special focus on treatment and the proper use of treatment options, including in depth coverage of the most common and potentially dangerous means of treatmentemerging concepts in patient carediscussion of lung diseases affecting the survivors of 9/11
