Pulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis, a Rare Cause of Progressive Restrictive Lung Disease

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
We present a case of a young patient with pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis, initially misdiagnosed and treated for tuberculosis. Transbronchial lung biopsy revealed intralveolar calcifications confirming the diagnosis. The patient was treated symptomatically and advised long‐term oxygen therapy during episodes of breathlessness.

Diagnosis of leukemic lung infiltration mimicking fungal infection by transbronchial lung cryobiopsy: the first case report

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background We here report the first case of leukemic lung infiltration diagnosed by transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC). TBLC is likely to be a superior method to transbronchial forceps biopsy because TBLC can get larger specimens, resulting in a ...

Pneumomediastinum after transbronchial cryobiopsy

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2018
Pneumomediastinum is defined as the presence of air or gas within the mediastinum and it rarely complicates bronchoscopy. We report, to our best knowledge, the first case of pneumomediastinum following a transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBLC).
