Abstract:
A 34-year-old woman with stable systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) treated with low-dose prednisone and hydroxychloroquine developed multiple bilateral pulmonary nodules. Open lung biopsy documented lymphocytic interstitial pneumonitis (LIP). LIP should be considered in the differential diagnosis of nodular pulmonary lesions in patients with SLE.
