VALENZUELA, José Ignacio et al. Blesovsky syndrome Uncommon and underdiagnosed pulmonary pseudotumor. Acta Med Colomb [online]. 2013, vol.38, n.4, pp.258-261. ISSN 0120-2448.

Abstract We present the case of a 68 year old immunosuppressed man, in the late period after liver transplant for alcoholic cirrhosis and in whom incidentally imaging studies showed a lung round atelectasis. The patient was asymptomatic and the only positive finding on physical examination was fine basal rales. It was impossible to find related etiological factors, so the case was categorized as idiopathic. (ActaMed Colomb 2013; 38: 258-261).
