Occupational Medicine 64 (2) : 136-138. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1093/occmed/kqt147 | Abstract: | We describe a patient with clinical, radiological and pathological features of bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia. Investigation showed that this was likely to have been a delayed consequence of inhalation of nitric acid fumes (containing nitrogen dioxide) after a fire. This case shows that thorough investigation of the aetiology is important not only in clinical management but also in ensuring patients benefit from appropriate work injury compensation. © The Author 2013.
