  • Title: [Late pulmonary changes following bleomycin administration in computed tomography. Nodular fibrosis mimicking a seminoma metastasis].
    Author: Gehl HB, Hauptmann S, Sohn M, Bohndorf K.
    Journal: Radiologe; 1992 Feb; 32(2):80-2. PubMed ID: 1373509.
    Abstract:
    This is a case report of a patient with multiple metastases to the lung due to a seminoma, treated with a chemotherapeutic regimen containing bleomycin. The typical subpleural fibrosis of the lung related to bleomycin damage disappeared 6 months after the start of chemotherapy. 4 weeks later, a solitary nodule at a prior unchanged site of the lung appeared, mimicking recurrent metastasis. Explorative thoracotomy revealed a nodular fibrosis of the lung, representing a late reaction of the lung to chemotherapy damage.
