Abstract
A 68-year-old man developed symmetrical bibasal infiltrates. Transbronchial lung biopsy specimen demonstrated abnormalities consistent with bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP). The infiltrates appeared to migrate cephalad over a period of months, gradually disappearing after reaching the pulmonary apices.
