  • Title: Pulmonary Langerhans' cell histiocytosis: radiologic resolution following smoking cessation.
    Author: Mogulkoc N, Veral A, Bishop PW, Bayindir U, Pickering CA, Egan JJ.
    Journal: Chest; 1999 May; 115(5):1452-5. PubMed ID: 10334170.
    Abstract:
    We describe two patients with histologically proven pulmonary Langerhans' cell histiocytosis in whom radiologic improvement occurred following smoking cessation. The patients had 23- and 25-pack-year smoking histories, respectively. High-resolution CT revealed multiple small nodules, located predominantly in the upper and middle lung fields. There was a close temporal relationship between smoking cessation and radiologic improvement.
