ABSTRACT

We herein report a patient who underwent multiple myeloma treatment and developed secondary organizing pneumonia following influenza A viral infection. The patient was a 65-year-old man. We treated him with an anti-influenza agent and antibiotics at the time of the influenza diagnosis. However, respiratory failure and bilateral consolidation progressed. Thus, we performed transbronchial lung biopsy and obtained findings indicating organizing pneumonia. He recovered following treatment with corticosteroids.
Although there have been several reports of suspected cases of organizing pneumonia following influenza viral infection, most of those cases were diagnosed by imaging or diagnostic treatment without histological diagnosis.
In the present case, we treated organizing pneumonia following influenza viral infection identified on the basis of histological diagnosis.
