with underlying COPD
I agree with Nicolas that "bronchopneumonie chronique obstructive" most likely refers to chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD). For "sur fond de", you might use "with underlying".

against a background of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(trying again, sorry for the mess of answers/retractions)
I believe this is actually chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The only places we find either
"chronic obstructive bronchopneumonia"
or
"chronic obstructive bronchopneumopathy"
are translations from foreign articles.

Michael Barnett
: I agree that it is COPD. I would disagree with Manu in that the COPD is not necessarily the cause of whatever is happening, but it is affecting the outcome (such as a non-fatal bullet to the head in a patient with a previous stroke).

Pulmonary hypertension secondary to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the most common cause of secondary pulmonary hypertension (PH). ... The most important mechanisms leading to PH are hypoxic vasoconstriction, pulmonary hyperinflation and endothelial dysfunction.

What is bronchopneumonia?
Pneumonia is a category of lung infections. It occurs when viruses, bacteria, or fungi cause inflammation and infection in the alveoli (tiny air sacs) in the lungs. Bronchopneumonia is a type of pneumonia that causes inflammation in the alveoli.
Someone with bronchopneumonia may have trouble breathing because their airways are constricted. Due to inflammation, their lungs may not get enough air. Symptoms of bronchopneumonia can be mild or severe.

As indicated in this ref, COPD comprises two distinct conditions chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It is a predisposing factor towards the development of pneumonia but COPD is NOT synonymous with pneumonia see,

As indicated here, bronchopneumonia is typically caused by bacterial infection
https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/...
Bronchopneumonias are the most common infections producing diffuse coalescent opacities. Gram-negative organisms are particularly notorious for producing such fulminant pneumonias.235 This pattern is frequently preceded by radiographs showing multifocal ill-defined opacities like those described in Chapter 16. There is a tendency for the patient to have some volume loss because of the bronchial inflammation. The loss of volume may cause one lobe to appear predominantly involved during the course of the illness. In some cases, the radiologic patterns of bronchopneumonia and pulmonary edema are identical, but an asymmetric, patchy, or even unilateral presentation (see Fig 15.2) is more consistent with the diagnosis of bronchopneumonia. (Answer to question 2 is a.)
