Imaging findings
CT showed a classic perivascular distribution of cysts, which were basal predominant and indicative of overall hypocystic disease. Small calcifications were noted within some cysts.
Key takeaways
This is a pathologically proven case of Lymphoid Interstitial Pneumonia (LIP) associated with Sjogren's syndrome. Key imaging features of LIP include a perivascular distribution of cysts, often with basal predominance, and can occasionally include small calcifications or amyloid deposits within the cysts. Understanding these features is crucial for diagnosis and differentiating LIP from other cystic lung diseases.
