Rationale: Although centrilobular emphysema (CLE) and paraseptal emphysema (PSE) are commonly identified on multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), little is known about the pathology associated with PSE compared with that of CLE.Objectives: To assess the pathological differences between PSE and CLE in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

An objective method to quantitate emphysema using computed tomography.

CT densitovolumetry in a heavy smoker with emphysema revealed compromise of about 22% of the lung parenchyma (Corrêa da Silva, 2001). CT densitovolumetry demonstrates irregular distribution of the emphysema, with substantial predominance in the left lung (Corrêa da Silva, 2001). When the retrosternal space (defined as the space between the posterior border of the sternum and the anterior wall of the mediastinum) is larger than 2.5 cm, it is highly suggestive of overinflated lungs.

High-resolution CT (HRCT) shows large bullae in both inferior lobes due to uniform enlargement and destruction of the alveoli walls causing distortion of the pulmonary architecture (Corrêa da Silva, 2001). High-resolution CT (HRCT) shows bullae distributed in the subpleural spaces including the fissures; this is characteristic of paraseptal emphysema (Corrêa da Silva, 2001).

Because paraseptal emphysema occurs adjacent to the pleura and septa and emphysema animal models have marked changes in capillary segments (i.e., a higher number of nonconnecting segments) on the pleural surface , disruptions of pulmonary and/or pleural capillaries might also contribute to paraseptal emphysema. 2003 Jul-Aug. 17(4):319-24.
