Abstract:
Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma is a disease with an insidious onset and various radiologic manifestations. A solitary peripheral pulmonary nodule, multiple nodules and lobar or diffuse consolidation are the common radiological findings. We report here on a case of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma mimicking DILD (diffuse interstitial lung disease) in a 60 year-old male that manifested as multiple peripheral consolidations, ground-glass opacities, subpleural lines, pleural thickening and interlobular septal thickening on CT.
