After the video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery was performed, he was diagnosed as having ECD. A brown eruption on his left temple, when tested by skin biopsy, proved to be ECD. No lesions other than these on the lung and skin were identified, and oral administration of predonisolone successfully treated both of them. Although recovery has followed the administration of predonisolone and chemotherapy for several patients with pulmonary ECD, this is the first report that predonisolone alone provided clinical and objective recovery from pulmonary ECD.
