A 49-year-old man with cirrhosis due to hepatitis C virus developed interstitial pneumonitis documented by surgical lung biopsy specimen evaluation after two weekly doses of pegylated interferon-alpha(2)b in combination with ribavirin. He developed ARDS and died after 26 days of hospitalization from multisystem organ failure. This case suggests that interstitial pulmonary disease can occur with pegylated interferon-alpha(2)b therapy.
