Summary

[edit]
Description Several well-defined nodules of immature connective tissue with fibroblasts. These lesions are called fibroblastic foci. They are a characteristic finding in UIP and are rarely seen in other forms of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. Their presence in UIP is indicative of ongoing disease activity. The tissue comprising these nodules is qualitatively identical to the intraalveolar Masson bodies seen in organizing pneumonia and to the intraaeveolar fibroblastic proliferation seen in the organizing/proliferative phase of diffuse alveolar damage (DAD).
