Chronic beryllium disease.
Abstract
Chronic beryllium disease is a multisystem granulomatous disease caused by industrial exposure to beryllium dust or fumes. It is thought to represent a hypersensitivity disorder rather than a true pneumoconiosis. The lung is the primary organ of involvement, and many of the radiographic features resemble sarcoid.
