| bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia | A disease formerly considered a form of interstitial pneumonia. Its aetiology is obscure but it may be associated with toxic fumes, infection, and connective tissue disease. Clinical symptoms include cough, dyspnea and influenza-like symptoms with the development of the usual interstitial pneumonia in many cases. Obstructive symptoms are limited to smokers. There are patchy polypoid masses of intra-alveolar granulation tissue in small airway lumina and alveolar ducts. "organizing" refers to unresolved pneumonia (in which the alveolar exudate persists and eventually undergoes fibrosis) in which fibrous tissue forms in the alveoli. (12 Dec 1998) |

| bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma | <tumour> A carcinoma, thought to be derived from epithelium of terminal bronchioles, in which the neoplastic tissue extends along the alveolar walls and grows in small masses within the alveoli; involvement may be uniformly diffuse and massive, or nodular, or lobular; microscopically, the neoplastic cells are cuboidal or columnar and form papillary structures; mucin may be demonstrated in some of the cells and in the material in the alveoli, which also includes denuded cells; metastases in regional lymph nodes, and even in more distant sites, are known to occur, but are infrequent. Synonym: alveolar cell carcinoma, bronchiolar adenocarcinoma, bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma, bronchioloalveolar adenocarcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |

| bronchogenic cyst |
a spherical congenital cyst arising from anomalous budding during the formation of the tracheobronchial tree; it is usually found in the mediastinum or the lung and is lined with bronchial epithelium that may contain secretory elements. It may contain air, and if it communicates with the trachea or a bronchus it may periodically evacuate fluid contents into the air passages, resulting in attacks of voluminous expectoration. Infection leads to mediastinal or pulmonary abscess. ...
