A 57-year-old man had been observed a mass-like shadow on a chest radiograph. One year later, chest computed tomography (CT) revealed the enlargement of the shadow. Positive finding of fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) suspected lung cancer, and lingular segmentectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was pulmonary actinomycosis. It is necessary to consider pulmonary actinomycosis is a differential diagnosis of lung cancer.
一名57岁男性在胸部X线片上发现有肿块样阴影。一年后，胸部计算机断层扫描（CT）显示该阴影增大。氟脱氧葡萄糖-正电子发射断层扫描（FDG-PET）的阳性结果怀疑为肺癌，遂行舌段切除术。病理诊断为肺放线菌病。有必要考虑肺放线菌病是肺癌的鉴别诊断之一。
