	~~#redirect~~ [[~~Pulmonary_pathology#Pulmonary_infarct~~]]		'''Pulmonary infarct''' is the death of [[lung]] tissue due to oxygen deprivation.

			It is also known as a '''lung infarct''', '''lung infarction''', and '''pulmonary infarction'''.

			==General==
			*Uncommon because of the dual blood supply (systemic via the bronchial arteries, pulmonary via the pulmonary arteries).

			Common causes:<ref>URL: [http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/908045-overview http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/908045-overview]. Accessed on: 12 April 2012.</ref>
			*[[Pulmonary embolism]].
			*[[Sickle cell disease]].

			Less common causes:
			*Lymphoma, esp. [[acute promyelocytic leukemia]].
			*Drugs, e.g. chemotherapy.
			*[[Vasculitis]].
			*Others.

			==Gross==
			*Lung periphery, classically described as wedge-shaped.

			Note:
			*In a histologic section, the classic wedge-shaped infarct is triangular:
			**Base of triangle on the pleural aspect.
			**Point furthest from the pleura close to the compromised artery that lead to infarction.

			*[http://www.flickr.com/photos/pulmonary_pathology/3732297830/ Pulmonary infarct (flickr.com)]

			==Microscopic==
			Features:
			*[[Necrosis]] of alveolar walls - loss of nuclei.
			*Alveolar hemorrhage.
