Abstract: RESUMOAs doenças pulmonares intersticiais constituem um grupo de doenças difusas do parênquima pulmonar, no qual a fibrose pulmonar intersticial está incluída. Histologicamente, esta se caracteriza por hiperplasia de pneumócitos tipo II, hiperplasia ou hipertrofia de músculo liso e fibrose. Embora a patogenia da fibrose pulmonar intersticial não esteja bem elucidada, devido às semelhanças microscópicas encontradas nos pneumócitos tipo II em felinos e na forma familiar da doença em humanos, acredita-se que haja… Show more

“…As in humans, cats with pulmonary fibrosis are older, reflecting the insidious pathogenesis of the disease (Cohn et al 2004). Because the number of included cats was small, it was not possible to determine sex or breed predilection; however, the three patients in this study were females, as previously described in several other studies (Le Boedec et al 2014, Evola et al 2014, Pereira et al 2016.…”

“…Pulmonary aspiration may result in low cellularity samples because fibroblasts are juxtaposed cells, as observed in Cat 1. To achieve a definitive diagnosis histopathological evaluation of the lung is necessary (Cohn et al 2004, Pereira et al 2016.…”

“…The report describes a case of feline idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a disease rarely reported in veterinary clinical practice [1][2][3], with this being only the second case described in Brazil [6]. The cat was 10 years old, which is within the age range described for this disease [1][2][3]6].…”

“…In this context, spontaneous idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in felines has been used as a model for the study of usual interstitial pneumonia [8,10]. However, information is limited to a few case reports found in literature [2,3,5,10], and in Brazil, there is only one previous case report on feline idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [6].…”
