Pulmonary hyalinizing granulomata are unusual, noninfectious lesions of the lung of uncertain etiology. The pathologic entity may represent a peculiar form of pulmonary immune reaction. We report the history of a 23-year-old woman who had nodular lesions in the right lung without any other abnormalities. Non-invasive procedures didn't yield diagnosis. Thoracotomy was performed. During intraoperative microscopic examination of one of 4 nodules, neoplastic disease was excluded. Remaining 3 nodules were also resected. The pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma was recognised in the histological examination. Follow-up after 12 months didn't reveal recurrence.
肺透明变性肉芽肿是一种不常见的、病因不明的非感染性肺部病变。该病理实体可能代表一种特殊形式的肺部免疫反应。我们报告一名23岁女性的病史,她右肺有结节性病变,无任何其他异常。非侵入性检查未能明确诊断。遂行开胸手术。术中对4个结节中的1个进行显微镜检查,排除了肿瘤性疾病。其余3个结节也被切除。组织学检查确诊为肺透明变性肉芽肿。12个月的随访未发现复发。
