Resume: Organized pneumonia, previously called bronchiolitis obliterans with organized pneumonia, is an interstitial lung disea- se that belongs to the group of idiopathic interstitial diseases and was first recognized in 1985. Sometimes it is not rela- ted to a specific cause calleing it in that case cryptogenetic, organized pneumonia but is frequently associated with other etiologies that may be infectious, inflammatory, neoplastic or secondary to drugs, it might also be related to extrapul- monary pathology as is the case of our patient in which is associated with a chronic cholestatic liver disease such as primary biliary cirrhosis.
