Sumario:Recent world events have refocused attention on the pathology associated with clinical acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The vast majority of cases of clinical ARDS will have diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) histologically, but other histologies may occur less frequently. The aim of this paper is to provide a review of the pathology of DAD and acute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia and provide insights into the pathologic features associated with the E-cigarette/vaping-associated lung-injury outbreak and the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
