We report the case of a 24-year-old man with a diagnosis of bronchiolitis obliterans, a rare clinical condition; the similarity to Ardystil syndrome was striking. Relevant occupational history included work in a textile air-brushing factory. Also noteworthy were lesions observed by CT scan in the form of cystic formations measuring less than 1 cm, a finding not previously described in the context of bronchiolitis obliterans. The patient improved immediately after starting corticoid treatment although scans failed to improve over several months of follow-up.

Presentamos el caso de un varón de 24 años de edad diagnosticado de bronquiolitis obliterante, entidad clinicopatológica infrecuente. Llama la atención la similitud con el síndrome de Ardystil. Entre los antecedentes profesionales se encuentra haber trabajado en una empresa de aerografía textil. También son destacables las lesiones radiológicas por tomografía axial computarizada, consistentes en formaciones quísticas de menos de 1 cm, no descritas con anterioridad en relación con la bronquiolitis obliterante. Diagnosticado el paciente, se inicia tratamiento con corticoides, con mejoría clínica inmediata, pero no radiológica, tras varios meses de seguimiento (AU)
