Core Tip |
Silicosis progresses slowly over a period of more than a decade and can occur after silica ex¬posure has ceased. Pneumoconiosis including silicosis occasionally shows rapid imaging progression, and the risk factors for its progression are well defined. This case report describes the association of rapid progression pneumoconiosis with grain dust exposure. In this case, silicosis rapidly developed upon exposure to a small amount of silica mixed with other dust even long after ending excessive silica exposure. Thus, it is important to carefully study a patient’s history and consider pneumoconiosis. |
