Urgent lung transplantation for thymic neoplasm‐associated severe constrictive bronchiolitis with bronchiectasis and radiotherapy‐induced organizing pneumonia: A case report

Abstract Here, we present the case of a 28‐year‐old woman who developed severe and progressive thymoma‐associated constrictive bronchiolitis with bronchiectasis, despite undergoing thymectomy. The disease was further complicated by radiation‐induced organizing pneumonia (RIOP), which developed after...
