              TERMINOLOGY

              • Abbreviations

                • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
              • Synonyms

                • IBD-associated lung disease
              • Definitions

                • Likely result of inappropriate immune response to physiologic gut flora in host with genetic susceptibility
                • Includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn disease (CD)
                  • UC: Limited to colon
                  • CD: Any segment of gastrointestinal tract
                • Extraintestinal manifestations of IBD are present in 16-40% of affected patients but are more common in CD
                  • Pulmonary manifestations are rare but often overlooked
                    • May be secondary to disease itself or may occur as complication of drugs used to treat disease (e.g., drug toxicity, opportunistic infection)
