Abstract EN

We describe a case of a 27-year-old female without any prior underlying immunodeficiency syndromes who presented with hemoptysis secondary to subacute invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and subsequently diagnosed with lymphoid interstitial pneumonia (LIP).

CT chest demonstrated bilateral interstitial disease with patchy opacities and multiple large cysts and bullae.

Diagnosis was confirmed histologically after surgical lung resection of the mycetoma containing cavitation.

Therefore, LIP should be suspected in patients presenting with opportunistic infections in the setting of cystic lung disease.
