Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and end-stage pulmonary fibrosis: a rare association.

Prachi P Agarwal1, Jean M Seely, D Garth Perkins, Fred R Matzinger, Qasim Alikhan.   

Abstract

We present the high resolution CT features of marked pulmonary fibrosis in a patient known to have pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) confirmed on open lung biopsy. Significant fibrosis in PAP is an extremely rare occurrence with only a few case reports. Our case demonstrated a predominantly central distribution, which has not been described previously.
