Abstract:
Childhood interstitial lung disease（chILD）is a heterogeneous group of diffuse lung diseases that pose significant challenges in both diagnosis and treatment.Currently，with advancements in diagnostic technologies and therapeutic methods，research on adult interstitial lung disease is progressing rapidly，and international clinical practice guidelines are continuously updated.In contrast，chILD faces more difficulties and challenges，leading to slower research development.This review summarizes the current status of chILD in terms of epidemiology，classification，diagnosis，and treatment，highlights the clinical challenges and urgent issues that need to be addressed，and offers new perspectives on the current approach to the diagnosis and treatment of chILD.
