Microlitiasis alveolar: presentación infrecuente del “patrón en empedrado”

We present a case in which the high-resolution CT images show diffuse pulmonary microcalcifications together with patchy areas of ground glass attenuation associated to marked thickening of the interlobular septa, all of which taken together constitute the crazy paving pattern. This pattern is not specific for alveolar microlithiasis; it has also been reported in other entities, including alveolar proteinosis, lipoid pneumonia, and bronchial alveolar carcinoma.
