We demonstrate the high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in a child before and after bronchoalveolar lavage. The CT pattern in our case differs from the pattern described in previous reports. We found a more homogeneous distribution of the pulmonary changes and a "crazy paving" pattern. High-resolution CT may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of this rare disease and in the follow-up of the pulmonary changes after bronchoalveolar lavage.
我们展示了一名儿童肺泡蛋白沉积症在支气管肺泡灌洗前后的高分辨率计算机断层扫描（HRCT）结果。我们病例中的CT表现与先前报告中描述的表现不同。我们发现肺部改变分布更均匀，呈现“铺路石征”。高分辨率CT可能有助于这种罕见疾病的鉴别诊断以及支气管肺泡灌洗后肺部改变的随访。
