BMJ Case Rep. 2015 Feb 3;2015:bcr2014208064. doi: 10.1136/bcr-2014-208064.1757-790X10.1136/bcr-2014-20806425650062http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14200/7739We present the case of a 48-year-old man with an extensive cannabis smoking history who presented with pleuritic chest pain. A chest X-ray revealed multiple large, apical lung bullae with fluid levels, an appearance consistent with infection. Lung function tests showed moderate airflow obstruction and decreased gas transfer. The infection was treated with a prolonged course of antimicrobials, and the patient followed up by respiratory physicians.enRespiratory medicineArticle
