Imaging findings
Patient presented with fibrotic lung disease showing perihilar fibrosis extending into the upper lobes, ground glass opacities, and mosaic attenuation.
Key takeaways
This rare case demonstrated findings consistent with both sarcoidosis (perilymphatic granulomas, sarcoid-esque fibrosis) and chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (lower lobe ground glass/mosaicism, airways-centered granulomas), confirmed by open lung biopsy in a patient with known sarcoid and bird exposure.
