Overview
There are no CT scan findings associated with Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome(ALPS). However, a CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of ALPS, as lymphoma.
CT
There are no CT scan findings associated with ALPS. However, a CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of lymphoma in patients with ALPS.Findings in chest CT of ALPS patients are
- Ground glass opacity[1]
- Larger lung nodules
- Tree in bud nodules
- Bronchiectasis
- Septal thickening
- Alvelolitis
- Lymphocytic infiltrate
