Abstract
A case of classical RA developed severe interstitial pulmonary disease and respiratory failure while on chrysotherapy. A high concentration of gold was found in lung tissue. Electron microscopic and electron probe examinations confirmed the presence of gold in the interstitial and intra-alveolar macrophages. The clinical course and possible pathogenic mechanism were discussed.Entities:
