Pulmonary masses in a patient with blue-gray cutaneous hyperpigmentation

Authors describe a case of pulmonary masses and estensive skin pigmen- tation: "blue-gray syndrome" occurred in a pa- tient in amiodarone therapy who presented with progressive dyspnea, cough, and fever. The di- agnosis was suspected by detection of a high attenuation of the pulmonary masses on the nonenhanced chest computed tomography (CT) and lots of foamy macrophages in the bron- choalveolar lavage fluid. Relief of respiratory symptoms and radiological improvement was achieved when amiodarone treatment was stopped.
