He has not had any cough, fevers, or recent weight loss. He has hypercholesterolemia, for which he takes simvastatin, but otherwise is healthy. For 35 years he has worked for a demolition company. He has smoked 1 pack of cigarettes daily for the past 33 years. Pulmonary examination shows fine bibasilar end-expiratory crackles. An x-ray of the chest shows diffuse bilateral infiltrates predominantly in the lower lobes and bilateral calcified pleural plaques. The patient is most likely to develop which of the following conditions?? A: Thyroid carcinoma, B: Tuberculosis, C: Sarcoidosis, D: Mesothelioma, E: Bronchogenic carcinoman,  <response>: This is a patient with a 2-month history of worsening shortness of breath on exertion. Key findings include his occupational exposure to asbestos for 35 years working in demolition, 33 pack-year smoking history, and chest x-ray findings of bilateral lower lobe infiltrates and calcified pleural plaques. The calcified pleural plaques indicate prior asbestos exposure. Given his smoking history and asbestos exposure, the most likely diagnosis is asbestosis leading to pulmonary fibrosis and restrictive lung disease. The chest x-ray findings are classic for asbestosis. The other answer choices are less likely in this clinical scenario.E: Bronchogenic carcinoma
