Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most common pulmonary manifestation of connective tissue disease (CTD). It may develop in the patients with preexisting connective tissue diseases or may be the initial lone manifestation of an underlying CTD. Since ILD causes a potentially substantial morbidity...
Rheumatologic diseases have various manifestations within each disease, as well as across all rheumatologic diseases.2,3 However, one potential manifestation that many rheumatologic diseases have in common is lLD.1,3 ILD is common among rheumatologic diseases, and is associated with significant morbidi...
As previously mentioned, a multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis and treatment of connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) is of paramount importance. A thorough history and physical examination should be supplemented by chest radiography, serum biomarkers and, occasiona...
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) complicating connective tissue disorders, such as scleroderma and rheumatoid arthritis, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Progress has been made in our understanding of these collective diseases; however, there are still many unanswered questions. In th...

The connective tissue diseases (CTDs) are a group of systemic disorders characterized by autoimmunity and autoimmune-mediated organ damage. The lung is a frequent target and all components of the respiratory system are at risk. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) represents a broad group of diffuse pa...
However, many questions remain about the applicability of SSc-ILD broadly across all types of CTD-ILDs and patterns, that is, do more Pathogenic pathways in connective tissue disease associated interstitial lung disease As discussed above, CTD-ILD can be challenging to treat. The treatment approach...
