CTICasesRheumatoid arthritis-associated organizing pneumonia
Imaging findings
Chest radiograph and CT show peripheral, non-segmental, multifocal consolidations with ground-glass opacities crossing fissures, in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis presenting with acute-on-chronic dyspnea.
Key takeaways
Organizing pneumonia is a common pulmonary manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis. It typically presents as peripheral, subpleural, or peribronchial consolidations that cross anatomical fissure boundaries, and responds well to corticosteroids.
