Non‐specific interstitial pneumonia associated with clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis showing “crazy paving” appearance on thin‐section lung CT

The “crazy paving” appearance consists of ground‐glass opacity superimposed on a network of linear opacities on thin‐section computed tomography (CT) images of the lung. This finding has been described in a variety of diseases but is extremely rare in patients with non‐specific interstitial pneumoni...

description The “crazy paving” appearance consists of ground‐glass opacity superimposed on a network of linear opacities on thin‐section computed tomography (CT) images of the lung. This finding has been described in a variety of diseases but is extremely rare in patients with non‐specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). We describe a 45‐year‐old woman with biopsy‐proven NSIP associated with clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis that showed a “crazy paving” appearance on thin‐section CT of the lung. Clinicians should include NSIP in the differential diagnosis in patients presenting with “crazy paving” appearance on thin‐section chest CT.
