Unusual nodular pulmonary lesions associated with thrombolytic therapy.
The occurrence of solitary nodular pulmonary lesions associated with thrombolytic therapy is reported in two patients. Resolution was spontaneous in each patient. Multiple thin needle aspiration biopsies in one case revealed only red blood cells. This unusual entity should be included as one of the potential complications associated with the use of thrombolytic agents.
