Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Mimicking Necrotizing Pneumonia: Case Report
نویسنده
چکیده
uncommon, but there are few case reports of cavitary pulmonary Hodgkin’s disease mimicking as lung abscess or necrotizing pneumonia. In this report, we describe a case of pulmonary Hodgkin’s lymphoma presenting as a large cavitary lesion with air-fluid levels in the right lower lobe mimicking as lung abscess or necrotizing pneumonia. The patient showed right lower tracheal and right hilar lymphadenopathy at the initial presentation. The involvement of Hodgkin’s lymphoma in the lung parenchyma and mediastinal nodes was confirmed by histologic diagnosis.
