| Description | Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and chronic fibrotic interstitial lung disease with progressive phenotype are characterized by fibrotic lung parenchyma. Current antifibrotic treatment does not affect pre-existing lung parenchyma fibrosis, but prevents fibrosis progression and reduces mortality by reducing fibrotization. This work summarizes fibrotic lung processes and their treatment options. © 2022, SOLEN s.r.o.. All rights reserved. |
