Pulmonary fibrosis. Overview. Pulmonary fibrosis Pulmonary fibrosis scars and thickens the tissue around and between the air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs, as shown on the right. A normal lung with normal alveoli is shown on the left. Pulmonary fibrosis is a lung disease that occurs when lung tissue becomes damaged and scarred. This thickened, stiff tissue makes it more difficult for your lungs to work properly. As pulmonary fibrosis worsens, you become progressively more short of breath. The scarring associated with pulmonary fibrosis can be caused by a multitude of factors.
The word pulmonary means âlungâ and the word fibrosis means scar tissue â similar to scars that you may have on your skin from an old injury or surgery. So, in its simplest sense, pulmonary fibrosis (PF) means scarring in the lungs. But, pulmonary fibrosis is more serious than just having a scar in your lung. In PF, the scar tissue builds up in the walls of the air sacs of the lungs, and eventually the scar tissue makes it hard for oxygen to get into your blood.
