It is one of three anatomic classifications of pneumonia (the other being bronchopneumonia and atypical pneumonia).

   Does croupous pneumonia follow each other in a chronological order?

   • It was stated that lobar (“croupous”) pneumonia involves the whole lobe in one step and the red and gray hepatization followed each other in a chronological order. Despite all our efforts, we were unable to find any original articles, that provided evidence in support of these statements.

   Does croupous pneumonia develop sequentially in the lobe?

   • In several cases the typical symptoms of croupous pneumonia were associated with sublobar (focal) lesions. In addition, we found that the so-called stages of lobar pneumonia are usually occurring side by side and do not develop in a strictly sequential order in the affected lobe.

   Is croup a bacterial infection?

   • Croup can be caused by a number of viruses including parainfluenza and influenza virus. Rarely is it due to a bacterial infection. Croup is typically diagnosed based on signs and symptoms after potentially more severe causes, such as epiglottitis or an airway foreign body, have been ruled out.
