Aquatic fibrous lung syndrome is considered one of the prominent environmental and health challenges where the health of living creatures interconnects with the safety of aquatic and amphibious ecosystems. This condition is linked to the emergence of pathological and histological changes at the level of the respiratory system, specifically in lung tissues, as a result of continuous exposure to water pollutants or biological and microbial factors in wet habitats and swamps. Reports issued by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) indicate that the deterioration of water quality and the level of environmental pollution play a major role in stimulating chronic inflammatory processes and tissue fibrosis in organisms relying on these environments, necessitating precise and continuous monitoring programs for living population health and environmental balance protection. Modern management strategies for this syndrome rely on an integrated package of preventive and therapeutic procedures, including accurately detecting the primary cause, conducting early histological diagnosis to assess the extent of pulmonary damage, periodically analyzing water quality, and implementing comprehensive field examinations to develop effective management plans ensuring the limitation of pollutant spread and public safety protection. Veterinary and research studies confirm that the integration of efforts between basin monitoring and clinical laboratories directly contributes to rapid intervention, reduced infection rates, and the preservation of environmental and water resource sustainability for future generations.
