  • Title: Pulmonary migratory infiltrates and pachypleuritis in a patient with Crohn's disease.
    Author: Faller M, Gasser B, Massard G, Pauli G, Quoix E.
    Journal: Respiration; 2000; 67(4):459-63. PubMed ID: 10940806.
    Abstract:
    Crohn's disease can be associated with several respiratory manifestations. We report here a case of pulmonary migratory infiltrates associated with bilateral pleural thickening and peripheral eosinophilia. The histopathological findings show an association of necrotizing nodules, eosinophilic infiltration in the non-abscessed lung tissue, areas of non-caseating epithelioid granulomas, and an extensive pleural fibrosis. The different histopathological findings are detailed and the responsibility of either Crohn's disease or treatment by mesalazine is discussed.
