摘要
Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP) is a rare disorder of unknown cause that is characterized by accumulation of eosinophils and lymphocytes in the pulmonary interstitial space and alveoli and can present subacute or chronic respiratory symptoms. It usually manifests as bilateral non-segmental peripheral air space consolidations with upper lobe dominancy. We report a case of CEP in a young female patient showing atypical radiologic manifestations with unilateral predominance and pleural effusion. Because of the asymmetric upper lobe predominance and subacute to chronic symptoms appeared similar to those seen in pulmonary tuberculosis and lead to delayed treatment.
