Endobronchial Hodgkin's disease.

Endobronchial involvement with Hodgkin's disease has been reported infrequently. A 26-year-old woman with previously diagnosed nodular sclerosing Hodgkin's disease had substernal chest pain and a right middle lobe infiltrate. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy showed nodular endobronchial lesions located at the carina, the right mainstem bronchus, and the right middle lobe orifice. A biopsy specimen of one of these lesions showed Hodgkin's disease. The patient was then treated with sequential systemic chemotherapy. Repeated bronchoscopy showed complete resolution of the endobronchial lesions, and the patient has remained in complete remission for 24 months.
