The clinico-radiological manifestations of HP-associated OID differ from those described in isolated HP or OID. There is no single specific radiological marker differentiating non-specific/idiopathic disease from secondary causes; however, the co-existence of HP in OID should prompt suspicion of an underlying cause. The disease may be refractory or resistant to initial treatment, although guidelines surrounding its management and the long-term prognosis remain to be determined.
