description |
Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) has
emerged as a social issue as e-cigarette use is rapidly increasing worldwide and is related to
many deaths in the United States. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of EVALI in
South Korea of a 24-year-old man with acute respiratory symptoms and a history of e-cigarette
use. Chest CT revealed diffuse bilateral ground-glass opacities with subpleural sparing, airspace
consolidation, and centrilobular micronodules as typical patterns of EVALI with organizing
pneumonia and diffuse alveolar damage. Infection was excluded with meticulous laboratory
examinations, and the patients’ illnesses were not attributed to other causes. EVALI was
diagnosed by meeting the diagnostic criteria with consistent clinico-radiologic findings through
a multidisciplinary approach. Radiologists should have good knowledge of EVALI radiologic
findings and play a cardinal role in the proper diagnosis and management of EVALI. |
