Abstract
- This article from the Qatar Medical Journal discusses a rare case of acute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia (AFOP) induced by the drug everolimus. The patient, a 54-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer, developed AFOP while taking everolimus. The condition improved after discontinuing the drug and receiving steroid treatment. The article highlights the need for further understanding of the association between everolimus and AFOP, and discusses treatment options for managing the condition. [Extracted from the article]
