Sažetak

A case of an unusual biological response to the exposure to asbestos dust in the form of large, multiple, round, homogenous and well-defined opacities in a 35-year old asbestos-cement worker without evidence of rheumatoid arthritis is described. A histological examination revealed hyalinized connective tissue with numerous tiny calcifications and connective tissue with lymphocyte infiltrates. The authors compare the reaction with the features of Caplan's syndrome.
