Three cases which presented with clinical and radiological features consistent with a diagnosis of lung neoplasm and eventually turned out to be due to a foreign body are described. Their management and outcome was different in each case. The value of making a firm histological diagnosis in bronchoscopically visible lesions prior to thoracotomy is emphasised. Multiple bronchoscopic examinations and biopsies may be needed to achieve a histological diagnosis.
本文描述了三例病例，这些病例最初呈现出与肺部肿瘤诊断相符的临床和放射学特征，但最终发现是由异物引起的。每例病例的处理方式和结果各不相同。强调了在开胸手术前对支气管镜可见病变进行明确组织学诊断的重要性。可能需要多次进行支气管镜检查和活检才能获得组织学诊断。
