Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-associated bronchioloalveolar disorder required differentiation from fibrotic chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis

We encountered a case of HTLV-1-associated bronchioloalveolar disorder (HABA) that was difficult to distinguish from fibrotic chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP).
