摘要
We report the case of a 37-year-old man with chronic renal insufficiency, on hemodialysis, with no respiratory symptoms but whose chest radiograph showed parenchymal consolidation in the middle and upper lung fields. High resolution computed tomography showed a high-attenuating diffuse alveolar pattern that indicated calcium deposits. Bronchoscopy revealed metastatic calcification on the interalveolar septa and bronchiolar and arteriolar. The present report, based on radiologic and bronchoscopic findings, describes the pathogenesis and anatomical distribution of the patient's diffuse pulmonary calcification.
