Abstract:
Confluent infiltrates and interstitial condensates with (sub)segmentary spreading are typical radiological findings in amiodarone pneumopathy. A case is presented where daily amounts of 200-600 mg and a total of 18.3 g amiodarone led to alveolitis with fibrosis within 4 weeks, which is uncommon in the early stage.
