| Core Tip |
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is frequently misdiagnosed due to the absence of typical map-like and pavement-like manifestations in the lungs or the absence of typical pathological findings. Transbronchial cryobiopsy has unique advantages in diagnosing atypical alveolar protein deposition, particularly for enabling the early detection of PAP. This information can help patients take preventive measures to prevent or halt PAP development by avoiding dusty environments and seeking treatment with total lung lavage and inhaled granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor. |
