  • Title: Asbestos-associated rounded atelectasis: a case report and review of the literature.
    Author: Franzblau A.
    Journal: Mt Sinai J Med; 1989 Sep; 56(4):321-5. PubMed ID: 2677698.
    Abstract:
    Asbestos-associated rounded atelectasis is a nonmalignant radiographic consequence of asbestos exposure that can mimic neoplasia. It is infrequently mentioned in reviews of the radiographic features of nonmalignant asbestos-associated disease. Distinguishing it from malignant disease without resorting to chest surgery is important. This report presents a case of such atelectasis, and a review of the relevant literature.
