Lung India. 2021 May-Jun;38(3):273-276. doi: 10.4103/lungindia.lungindia_268_20.

Abstract

An 81-year-old male presented with a background history of progressive shortness of breath for 3 years with recent worsening in the past 6 months. Clinicoradiological investigations were consistent with a nonresolving consolidation involving predominantly right lung. This clinicopathologic conference discusses the differential diagnoses of pneumonia of long-standing duration and their management options.
