• We report a case of pneumonitis caused by irinotecan (CPT-11). A 55-year-old man was admitted for further evaluation and treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). After irradiation for a focal brain metastatic lesion, irinotecan was administered intravenously. Three weeks after the chemotherapy, he had a high fever with diffuse patchy attenuation on a chest computed tomography (CT) scan. A significant increase in the number of mast cells in his bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid was also found. The pneumonitis was subsequently controlled by steroid therapy, with a decrease in the number of mast cells in the BAL fluid.
