Organizing pneumonia. Features and prognosis of cryptogenic, secondary, and focal variants

Cryptogenic OP most often was a symptomatic bilateral lung process that had an overall favorable prognosis with prolonged corticosteroid therapy. Patients with secondary OP had a high mortality rate when the disease was associated with predisposing conditions or drugs. Patients with asymptomatic focal OP had an excellent prognosis.
