Pulmonary actinomycosis is a rare chronic granulomatous bacterial disease caused by Actinomyces species. Given its nonspecific clinical and radiological manifestations, the diagnosis might be delayed or even missed. Pulmonary actinomycosis mimics tuberculosis, aspergillosis, or malignancy both clinically and radiographically, and it should be considered in patients with chronic lung diseases.
肺放线菌病是一种由放线菌属引起的罕见慢性肉芽肿性细菌病。鉴于其非特异性的临床和影像学表现,诊断可能会延迟甚至漏诊。肺放线菌病在临床和影像学上都与肺结核、曲霉病或恶性肿瘤相似,患有慢性肺部疾病的患者应考虑此病。
