Trait
Crazy paving pattern
The so-called crazy paving pattern appears as thickened interlobular septa and intralobular lines superimposed on a background of ground-glass opacity, resembling irregularly shaped paving stones. The crazy-paving pattern is often sharply demarcated from more normal lung and may have a geographic outline. It was originally reported in patients with alveolar proteinosis and is also encountered in other diffuse lung diseases that affect both the interstitial and airspace compartments, such as lipoid pneumonia.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Crazy paving pattern is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| CSF2RAcolony stimulating factor 2 receptor subunit alpha | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| CSF2RBcolony stimulating factor 2 receptor subunit beta | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| ABCA3ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 3 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| HLA-DRB1major histocompatibility complex, class II, DR beta 1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
