Adenopathy and pulmonary infiltrates in a Japanese emigrant in Brazil.

A 77-year-old Japanese man living in Brazil for 70 years presented with a 6-month history of progressive dyspnea, weight loss (30 lb), low-grade fever, dry cough, and dry mouth. His medical history revealed hypertension and type 2 diabetes. He was a 40-pack-year ex-smoker and had worked in agriculture. Physical examination revealed bibasilar inspiratory crackles and enlarged (1 cm in diameter), mobile, and nontender cervical, supraclavicular, axillary, and inguinal lymph nodes (LNs).
