摘要
We report a case of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma that required approximately I year to diagnose due to alternating periods of exacerbation and improvement of abnormal opacity on chest radiography. It is important to consider the diagnosis of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma when consolidative opacities simulating pneumonia show an alternating pattern of worsening and improvement.
