Lobar pneumonia and bronchopneumonia are two types of pneumonia, which is an infection of one or both of the lungs caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Lobar pneumonia affects one or more sections (lobes) of the lungs, while bronchopneumonia affects patches throughout both lungs.
Lobar pneumonia causes acute inflammation of the entire lobe or lung, while bronchopneumonia causes patchy foci of consolidation (pus in many alveoli and adjacent air passages). Lobar pneumonia has a localized inflammation, while bronchopneumonia has a diffuse inflammation.
