Pulmonary sarcoidosis: calcified micronodular pattern simulating pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis.

Abstract:

:A case of sarcoidosis demonstrating an unusual pattern of profuse micronodular calcification is presented. The striking similarity with the so-called pathognomonic appearance of pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis and the progressive deterioration of pulmonary function are emphasized.

  • Epipericardial fat pad necrosis: computed tomography findings and literature review.

    abstract::Epipericardial fat necrosis is an unusual clinical condition of unknown etiology first reported in the literature in 1957. It presents as an acute onset of chest pain and a well-defined juxtacardiac mass. Computed tomographic findings of this condition demonstrate a fat-attenuation mass that resolves over time. We pre...
