Clinically significant pulmonary involvement in inflammatory bowel disease is uncommon, and presentation to thoracic surgeons is rare. A literature review found no such cases in the cardiothoracic surgery network (CTSNET) journals. We describe a patient presenting with a lung mass presumed to be lung cancer that ultimately transpired to be pulmonary involvement of inflammatory bowel disease.
炎症性肠病出现具有临床意义的肺部受累情况并不常见,向胸外科医生求诊的情况也很罕见。一项文献综述发现心胸外科手术网络(CTSNET)期刊中没有此类病例。我们描述了一名患者,其肺部有一个肿块,最初被认为是肺癌,最终经证实是炎症性肠病的肺部受累。
