Causes of Pulmonary Fibrosis in the Elderly

Causes of Pulmonary Fibrosis in the Elderly

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common and most lethal type of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. It is a chronic, aging-associated lung disease characterized by fibrotic foci and inflammatory infiltrates, with no cure and very limited therapeutic options. Although its etiology is un...
