Avelumab-Induced Organizing Pneumonia

Imaging findings

Chest CT shows bilateral, basal-predominant consolidations with a perilobular and reversed halo (atoll) pattern in a patient receiving immunotherapy (avelumab) for abdominal liposarcoma. The pattern resolved spontaneously over one month.

Key takeaways

Drug-induced organizing pneumonia is a known immune-related adverse event of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors like avelumab. It can present with characteristic perilobular or reversed halo signs and may regress spontaneously or require corticosteroids.
