All children with DPLD (= ILD) and those who have got a lung biopsy
1. All diffus parenchymatous lung diseases (DPLD), also called interstitial lung diseases, are rare and should be collected and followed long term in the register. The entities covered are listed in tab. 1.
The current classification table is here.
2. Additionally, all children with a diagnostic lung biopsy should be included.
