Abstract
Patients treated with bleomycin should be frequently monitored during and after treatment. Actually this treatment can cause pulmonary toxicity and may progress to pulmonary fibrosis. Extreme care is required in patients with a severe deterioration of renal function or impaired lung function. PET/CT can be a useful tool for the early diagnosis of this complication. We report a case of bleomycin-induced pneumonitis and discovered during a PET/CT performed for evaluation of Hodgkin's disease.
