==Pneumonia  - Introduction and Classification==

*Pneumonia
 
**Inflammation that takes place in the '''alveoli and their walls'''
 
**Can be grouped either according to
 
***Nature of the inflammatory process
 
***Aetiological agent
 
***Pattern of the lesion
 
 
 
*Patterns of lung inflammation vary depending on the aetiology, route and method of exposure and multiple host factors including age, general health, and immune status
 
**There are five general patterns of pneumonia:
 
***[[Bronchopneumonia]]
 
***[[Bronchointerstitial Pneumonia]]
 
***[[Lobar Pneumonia]]
 
***[[Interstitial Pneumonia]]
 
***[[Embolic Pneumonia]]

*Regardless of the pattern, all pneumonias pass through three stages:
 
**'''Exudative phase'''
 
***In this initial stage inflammatory exudate pours into alveolar spaces and alveolar capillaries are congested
 
***Type I alveolar epithelial cells are highly sensitive to injury and cannot proliferate in response to injury
 
***Necrosis and sloughing of injured type I cells, denuding alveolar spaces of lining epithelium
 
***[[Neutrophils|Neutrophils]] begin to enter alveolar spaces distended with inflammatory oedema
 
**'''Proliferative phase'''
 
***Type II alveolar cells (less sensitive to and can proliferate in response to injury) begin to proliferate within 24 hours and eventually line the alveolar walls denuded of type I cells ***By 6 days cuboidal type II cells can completely line the alveoli
 
***Proliferation of type II cells marks the shift from the exudative to the proliferative stage of pneumonia, also heralded by decreased blood flow in alveolar capillaries
 
***Because the original squamous type I cells have been replaced by cuboidal type II cells, the microscopic appearance of pneumonic lungs at about 1 week has been described as “alveolar epithelialization”, “alveolar adenomatosis”, or “bronchiolisation of alveoli”
 
**'''Repair phase'''
 
***Resolution of pneumonia is accomplished by transformation of type II cells to type I cells
