Abstract

This is the case of a 68-year-old man with known cardiac sarcoidosis undergoing treatment with methotrexate who presented with new onset of dyspnea and lipothymia. FDG-PET/CT revealed pathological uptake within lung parenchyma which resolved following discontinuation of methotrexate, compatible with methotrexate-induced pneumonitis. This is the first case of methotrexate-induced pneumonitis documented by FDG-PET/CT.
