Abstract
The morphology of adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) essentially involves two distinct aspects: aetiology and pathophysiology. Many different pathophysiological mechanisms may be important in the development of ARDS. However, although during the initial phase the morphological appearances may be somewhat disparate, eventually the morphological picture is that of classical ARDS.
