Honeycomb lung
Introduction
Introduction Cellular Pulmonary Syndrome is a lung disease characterized by a honeycomb-like appearance in a variety of advanced lung diseases. The lesions often involve the middle and lower lung fields, forming vesicles with a diameter of about 1 cm, arranged one by one, like a honeycomb or honeycomb-like appearance.

1, lung failure, manifested as hypoventilation, hypoxia, asphyxia and so on.
2, lung texture thickening, disorder, linear, strip-like or multiple ring-shaped translucent shadow.
3, due to the reduction of the lower lobe, often narrow the rib space and increase the septum, may be accompanied by displacement of the mediastinum, trachea or hilar.

Clinical identification
1. Lung cancer: Lung cancer occurs in the bronchial mucosa epithelium, also known as bronchial lung cancer. Lung cancer generally refers to cancer of the lung parenchyma, usually does not contain mesodermal tumors of other pleural origin, or other malignant tumors such as carcinoid, malignant lymphoma, or tumors from other sources. Therefore, the lung cancer we refer to below refers to a malignant tumor derived from the epithelial cells of the bronchi or bronchioles, accounting for 90-95% of the malignant tumors of the lung parenchyma.
2, pulmonary failure: manifested as hypoventilation, hypoxia, asphyxia and so on. The lungs are thickened and disordered, and have a linear, strip-like or multiple ring-shaped translucent shadow. As the lower lobes shrink, the rib space is often narrowed and the septum is elevated, which may be accompanied by displacement of the mediastinum, trachea or hilar.
