Abstract
The practice of manual siphoning of diesel from fuel tanks is common among automobile mechanics in Nepal. When an automobile mechanic with a history of diesel siphonage presents with respiratory symptoms, the diesel siphoner's lung diagnosis should be considered. Clinical suspicion confirmed by radiological findings can help in early management and prevention of permanent damage.Entities:
