Interstitial idiopathic pneumonias are a group of diseases whose rarity and variety of clinical, radiological and pathological descriptions creates difficulties in study and management. An example of this is the classification method for this group, with only 2002 seeing some consensus. The aim of this article is to review the main literature to contribute to an understanding of this subject.

Keywords : Interstitial idiopathic pneumonias; idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
