Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor and a key drug for advanced non‐small cell lung cancer. There are few reports describing bevacizumab‐induced chronic interstitial pneumonia.A 62‐year‐old man with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer was admitted to our hospital with dyspnea. He previously received four courses of carboplatin plus paclitaxel with bevacizumab combination therapy and thereafter received four courses of maintenance bevacizumab monotherapy. A chest‐computed tomography scan on admission revealed diffuse ground glass opacity. He had not received any other drugs and did not have pneumonia. Thus, he was diagnosed with bevacizumab‐induced chronic interstitial pneumonia and was treated with a high dose of corticosteroids. After steroid treatment, his dyspnea and radiological findings improved.This case report is the first description of bevacizumab‐induced chronic interstitial pneumonia during maintenance therapy in a patient with non‐small cell lung cancer.

Dendriform pulmonary ossification (DPO) is a rare condition characterized by heterotopic bone production of unknown origin within the pulmonary tissue. Many cases are asymptomatic with slow progression and are often diagnosed incidentally during autopsy. Thus, only few cases are diagnosed while the patient is still alive since surgical lung biopsy is often needed for pathological diagnosis. This is the case of a 37-yearold man treated at our hospital due to abnormal findings on chest x-ray without any symptoms. His high-resolution computed tomography revealed diffuse reticular shadows and micronodules, consistent with calcification. He underwent transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) and was diagnosed with idiopathic DPO based on pathological findings. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of DPO diagnosed using TBLC. TBLC can be a useful yet minimally invasive diagnostic tool to diagnose DPO and other interstitial lung diseases.
