ABSTRACT

Neste trabalho são apresentados os achados observados na tomografia computadorizada de alta resolução de um paciente com talcose pulmonar, com a doença adquirida pelo uso de drogas orais injetadas por via venosa. O principal aspecto observado na tomografia computadorizada de alta resolução foi o de nódulos centrolobulares, associados a massas conglomeradas. Havia também enfisema e áreas de atenuação em vidro fosco. Estes achados são bastante sugestivos de talcose pulmonar


We report the findings of the high-resolution computed tomography of the chest of a patient with pulmonary talcosis related to intravenous injection of diluted oral medicine. The most important high-resolution computed tomography findings were small centrilobular nodules associated with conglomerated masses. Areas of emphysema and ground glass attenuation were also seen. These high-resolution computed tomography findings are highly suggestive of pulmonary talcosis.
