| AimPneumoconiosis describes diseases caused by the accumulation of inorganic dust particles in the lungs, leading to tissue damage. The diagnosis relies on a history of exposure and compatible radiological findings.BackgroundWe aimed to investigate the radiological findings in individuals exposed to antimony-inert dust relative to their working periods.ObjectiveFifty-six symptomatic male antimony miners were retrospectively evaluated for demographics and chest computed tomography (CT) scans.MethodsThe demographic and radiological data of patients with a history of antimony mining, who presented at our pulmonary clinic between June 2017 and June 2023, were analyzed according to the duration of exposure.ResultsThe study included 56 male patients with a mean age of 58.5±13.02 years and a mean exposure duration of 13.63 ± 6.82 years. CT scans showed that 73.2% (n=41) had upper and middle … |
