Abstract:
A case of neoplastic angioendotheliosis of the lung is reported. A 56-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of fever, increased serum lactic dehydrogenase, and arterial hypoxemia. Chest radiography revealed diffuse reticulonodular opacity, whereas CT scanning showed diffuse small nodular areas of increased attenuation with indistinct borders. Diffuse pulmonary uptake of Ga-67 was noted in scintigraphy. Combination chemotherapy designed for lymphoma induced a remission of the disease.
