Postobstructive pneumonia is a pulmonary infiltrate distal to a bronchial obstruction. It presents a diagnostic challenge, and full attention should be on recognition of this entity, identify, and treating the obstructive lesion and secondary infection. In adults, malignancy is the main cause; however, others etiologies must be investigated.
