Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis is an uncommon infiltrative pulmonary disease characterized by deposition of microliths in the alveoli. We present the case of a young adult with complaints of shortness of breath on exertion. Chest radiograph showed innumerable small, dense nodules, diffusely involving both the lungs - predominantly in the lower zones. High-resolution CT scan illustrated wides...

Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare disease characterized by the presence of small calculi in the alveolar space. The authors report a case of a 21-year-old man with a 2-year history of shortness of breath on exertion and dry cough. Physical examination was altered only for crackles at auscultation. Pulmonary function revealed a mild restrictive ventilatory defect and the chest ra...

Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare idiopathic disease of unknown etiology and pathogenesis. PAM is characterized histopathologically by extensive intra-alveolar calcium and phosphate deposition throughout both lung parenchymas. None-invasive diagnosis of pulmonary calcification and ossification requires various imaging techniques, including chest radiography and computed tomograp...

Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare disease of unknown etiology characterized by accumulation of calcific concretions in the alveolar spaces. The paper reports a case of PAM in a 56-year-old male. The patient had persistent dry cough, and gradually progressive dyspnea on exertion. The diagnosis was established on the basis of roentgenography and confirmed by the sputum and transbr...

Drug induced liver injury (DILI) is a condition with wide clinical spectrum. The diagnosis represents challenge not only due to the large number of known hepatotoxic products but especially when substance involved induce damage. Empagliflozin linked several adverse effects has been convincingly associated DILI. We report case 70-year-old type 2 diabetic woman that presented gastrointestinal sym...
