Silicosis, pulmonary silicosis

CASE

Multiple well-defined nodules in lung parenchyma that are well-defined, some contain calcifications, some tiny fibrous whiskers. Nodules that are located in subpleural parenchyma form so-called pseudoplaques. These are not true pleural plaques. Note also calcified lymphatic nodes in the mediastinum.
