[Fortuitous discovery of infiltration of the lung bases]. / Découverte fortuite d'un aspect infiltratif des bases pulmonaires.

ABSTRACT

We report a case of interstitial pneumonia found by a woman who suffered from a gastroesophageal reflux unamenable to usual treatments. The HR-tomographic discovery of a tone esophagus lead to a manometric study. The association of high autoantibodies levels and radiographic and manometric data were characteristic of esophageal and pulmonary scleroderma.
