“…However, it is sometimes difficult to differentiate CEP from organizing pneumonia (OP) because eosinophils could be slightly increased in BAL of cryptogenic OP and HRCT features may be similar. However, in CEP, consolidations are less frequently peribronchovascular and less frequently show a reverse halo sign, as compared to OP (19)(20)(21)(22).…”

“…Organizing pneumonia (OP) and diffuse alveolar damage are the two main histological findings in acute lung injury. OP can represent a primary form of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and can be idiopathic in which the term cryptogenic OP (COP) is applicable, previously known as bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) ( 19 , 21 ). OP can also be associated with connective tissue disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, dermatomyositis, or drugs such as amiodarone.…”

Acute and chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP and CEP) include a group of rare interstitial lung diseases characterized by peripheral blood eosinophilia, increased eosinophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, or eosinophilic infiltration of lung parenchyma. AEP is characterized by rapid onset, fast response to steroid treatment, and no relapse. CEP is characterized by marked tissue and peripheral blood eosinophilia, rapid response to steroid therapy, and tendency to disease recurrence. In addition, we briefly describe other eosinophilic lung diseases that must be considered in differential diagnosis of AEP and CEP. Eosinophilic pneumonias may be idiopathic or due to known causes such as medications or environmental exposure. At variance with previous reviews on this topic, a particular look in this overview was directed at pathological findings and radiological patterns.
