摘要

Use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) can have serious adverse effects on the respiratory tract. This is termed e-cigarette or vaping product use associated lung injury (EVALI). EVALI involves more than 1 mechanism, and reflects a spectrum of disease processes. Acute eosinophilic pneumonitis (AEP) is a relatively uncommon pattern of EVALI. Here, we reported a previously healthy young man who developed AEP following vaping for 4 months.
