Summary
| Description | Large, prominent subpleural bullae. Spontaneous pneumothorax often results from rupture of such lesions. Honeycomb fibrosis is present in the subpleural lung parenchyma. In emphysema the spaces resulting from alveolar wall destruction have thin, delicate walls without intervening fibrosis and resemble the appearance of a spider web. In honeycomb fibrosis the abnormal spaces resulting both from alveolar wall destruction and dilatation of small airways are separated by broad bands of fibrous tissue thus resembling a bee's honeycomb. |
