Lungefibrose: Behandling

Det er med lungearr som med andre arr - de blir værende. Du må derfor være forberedt på at tungpustheten vil vedvare. Hovedmålet med behandlingen er å forhindre at arrdannelsen får utvikle seg videre. Det viktigste tiltaket i så måte er å finne årsaken til sykdommen og fjerne den.

Ved noen av disse tilstandene kommer symptomene før fibrosedannelsen er fullført (Farmers lung, medikamentfibrose). Hvis man da er rask med å fjerne den sykdomsfremkallende årsaken, kan man unngå utbredt fibrose, og symptomene kan lindres.

Dessverre er det slik at lungefibrose i en del tilfeller ikke kan stoppes. Dette gjelder blant annet lungefibrose av ukjent årsak (idiopatisk lungefibrose). I de mest uttalte tilfellene kan det bli aktuelt med lungetransplantasjon.
