Abstract

Histopathological Findings in Lung Biopsies of Lupus Patients

Lars Rafiq

Lung biopsies in lupus patients often reveal distinct histopathological findings that reflect the complex pulmonary manifestations of the disease. Lung pathology in lupus patients can manifest in various forms, leading to complications such as Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD), lupus pneumonitis, and pulmonary hypertension. Understanding the histopathological findings in lung biopsies of lupus patients is essential for accurate diagnosis, prognosis, and the development of targeted therapies. This article aims to provide an overview of the key histopathological features observed in lung biopsies of patients with SLE, their clinical implications, and the role of lung biopsies in managing these patients.
