摘要
Bronchial anthracofibrosis characterized by bronchostenosis associated with anthracotic pigmentation in bronchoscopic finding without a relevant history of pneumoconiosis or smoking has been recently described as a clinical entity. Radiologic finding of bronchial obstructive lesion and mediastinal lymph nodes in bronchial anthracofibrosis can be mimicking cancer. However, the metabolic characteristics of bronchial anthracofibrosis have hardly been reported. Here, we report a case of bronchial anthracofibrosis which showing hypermetabolism on F-18 FDG PET.
