Abstract
Bronchiolitis obliterans should be classified with the diseases of unremitting dyspnea. The clinical picture is distinctive and correlates with the generalized involvement of respiratory bronchioles by obstructing lesions. Of particular importance in diagnosis is a roentgen pattern simulating miliary tuberculosis. Pulmonary infection or the inhalation of irritant fumes are the most common causes. The case reported herein was due to inhalation of nitrogen dioxide, which is the singly most common cause of bronchiolitis obliterans. Attention is drawn to the fact that poisoning by oxides of nitrogen fumes is not at all uncommon.
