This book aims to be a complete guide to diagnose, manage and treat rare lung diseases encountered by practising pulmonologists and trainees. It extensively covers the more common of the rare lung diseases, categorising them based on developmental lung anomalies in adults, airway disorders, diffuse parenchymal lung diseases, neoplasms, rare vascular disorders and other miscellaneous conditions. This comprehensive review facilitates the study and understanding of this complex and diverse set of disorders, focussing on differential diagnosis, evidence-based discussions of management algorithms, and thoughtful analysis of treatment options.

Key Features: 1. Reviews multiple rare lung diseases, including ones acquired congenitally to be expressed in old age. 2. Enriched with case studies and illustrations, guides the respiratory physicians and trainees to devise an effective treatment plan. 3. Focuses on concerned investigations, with a section on role of new procedures in the management.
