Extensive diffuse pulmonary ossification
Chest.
1992 Nov.
Abstract
Diffuse lung injury can either heal normally or progress to fibrosis. Calcification in the setting of fibrosis is common. The appearance of mature woven bone is not. We report a patient with extensive diffuse pulmonary ossification and discuss some of the theories relating to the development of this phenomenon.
