A middle-aged female with an atrial septal defect (secundum type) presented with a primary pulmonary amoebic abscess. She was successfully treated with antiamoebic therapy. One year later she presented with a similar lung abscess which again responded to antiamboebic treatment. Attention is drawn to the fact that a patient with a left to right shunt can present with a recurrent rare primary parasitic infection of the lung.
