Interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features is a condition in which patients can have clinical and serological findings suggesting of a connective tissue disease associated with an interstitial lung disease, nonetheless no criteria for an specific connective tissue disease are meeting. In 2015 classification criteria where proposed, the diagnosis is made in the presence of a combination of features from clinical, serological and morphological domain with various patterns of pulmonary involvement. Currently there is an increase in the interest of this condition, as some authors suggest that it can be an autoimmune pathology per se, whose main target organ would be the lung. Given its recent recognition, there are few cases described in the literature and therefore in order to contribute to the better identification of that entity, we present the case of a 65 year old patient with lung involvement in whom after ruling out other etiological causes reached the diagnosis of I Interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune by meeting criteria of each required domain.
