Abstract

Non-resolving pneumonia is a common clinical entity [1, 2]. The term non resolving pneumonia is considered when the radiograph has failed to resolve by 50% in 2 weeks or completely in 4 weeks. However pneumonia resolution is influenced by various factors like type of infection and organism [3]. The non-infectious causes of pneumonia termed as pneumonitis [4] always pose a diagnostic dilemma to the treating clinicians. We present a case of pneumonia that perplexed not only the physicians but also the pathologists which was finally diagnosed as bronchiolitis obliterans with organising pneumonia (BOOP).
