- Abstract
The article describes the case of tocilizumab (TCZ)-induced organizing pneumonia in a 26-year-old Japanese woman with systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease. Topics discussed include her medication which she had been taking for the past six months, her complaint of persistent cough at three-month follow-up before the fourth administration of TCZ, and organizing pneumonia as a rare complication of TCZ.
