Very early onset of acute amiodarone pulmonary toxicity presenting with hemoptysis
Abstract
A case of amiodarone pulmonary toxicity (APT) occurring within days of the start of therapy and presenting with hemoptysis is reported. Both the very early onset and the presenting symptom are highly unusual in this entity. Implications in the diagnosis of APT are discussed.
