INTRODUCTION
infections are being increasingly reported in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised patients. We describe a case of infection with an atypical presentation in an immunocompetent patient.
CASE PRESENTATION
A previously healthy 47-year-old gentleman presented with hiccups and paroxysmal spasms. Imaging revealed a pulmonary nodule, for which he underwent surgical resection. Pathologic evaluation demonstrated evidence of local inflammation, with growth of on tissue cultures.
CONCLUSION
may have atypical presentations in immunocompetent patients. Further research is needed to understand the factors leading to infections in immunocompetent patients.

病例介绍
一名既往健康的47岁男性出现打嗝和阵发性痉挛。影像学检查发现一个肺结节，为此他接受了手术切除。病理评估显示有局部炎症证据，组织培养中有[病原体名称]生长。
结论
[病原体名称]在免疫功能正常的患者中可能有非典型表现。需要进一步研究以了解导致免疫功能正常患者感染[病原体名称]的因素。
