ABSTRACT
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) is a clinicopathologic syndrome of pulmonary inflammatory responses which has become increasingly recognized and has been described in association with a variety of disorders. We present a case of polymyositis associated with BOOP that responded to a corticosteroid therapy. The patient had a nonproductive cough, increasing dyspnea, fatigue, mild proximal limb weakness, and bilateral basal interstitial infiltrates on chest X-ray. This case will add further strength to the association of BOOP with polymyositis. (J Korean Neurol Assoc 19(5)547~549, 2001)
