We report two cases of Pulmonary Hemosiderosis. The first patient (adult male) had an angiosarcoma of the left auricle and developed pulmonary arterial hypertension, was treated by surgery and chemotherapy. The other patient (adult female) suffered from Idiopathic Pulmonary Hemosiderosis (IPH) and had been treated by corticosteroids for fifteen years, with one acute episode during this period. We discuss the etiological diagnosis and the contribution of chest radiographs, CT-scan and MR Imaging in this rare illness according to literature. IPH occurs mostly in childhood with acute and fatal issue, whereas presents as a chronic form in adults. Assessment of IPH requires large investigations to eliminate hemodynamic, hemato-, immuno-, carcinological disorders, and infectious agents as well. Review.
