Imaging findings
High-resolution CT chest shows numerous thin-walled pulmonary cysts distributed throughout all lung zones. Several cysts contain a tiny central soft tissue dot or residual parenchymal tissue.
Key takeaways
Pulmonary light chain deposition disease (often associated with multiple myeloma) can manifest with diffuse, bilateral thin-walled cysts. Cysts with central soft tissue dots are characteristic of this entity.
