title: [The lung in monocional gammapatheis. Alternative hypotheses coming from a privileged observation (association of a diffuse interstitial fibrosis to a pulmonary tuberculosis then a disease of heavy gamma chains) (author's transl)].
abstract: The observation of a 61 year old woman who had a diffuse interstitial fibrosis, a pulmonary tuberculosis and a disease of heavy gamma chains is reported here. The different tumoral and infectious pneumopathies during monoclonal gammapathies are analyzed. In the opposite, there are the various abnormalities observed in thoracic pathology: chronic infections, pulmonary tuberculosis and diffuse interstitial fibrosis.
