Abstract

We report that a 14-year-old teen who was diagnosed with Langerhans cell histiocytosis at 16 months of age and with no previous respiratory symptoms, shows a bilateral multicystic pattern in thoracic computed tomography and bilateral interstitial infiltrates in chest radiography. Taking into account the radiologic features we propose the differential diagnosis of disorders with multiple cystic pulmonary findings in children.
