ABSTRACT
Honey comb lung is a radiological term indicating the presence of fairly thick walled cysts, usually 0.5-2 cm in diameter, which don,t fill with contrast material at bronchography. These changes may be diffuse or localized. The cysts probably represent dilated and thickened terminal and respiratory bronchioles. The main causes of diffuse honey combing are idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; rheumatoid lung; histiocytosis X; tuberous sclerosis and neurofibromatosis
