We describe a patient with a solitary pulmonary nodule that proved to be a rheumatoid nodule and a coexistent carcinoma. Similar cases from the literature are reviewed. Fine needle aspiration cytologies from such lesions are potentially misleading and must be interpreted cautiously. Pulmonary nodules in patients with rheumatoid arthritis clearly should be approached as possible carcinomas.
我们描述了一名患有孤立性肺结节的患者,该结节被证实为类风湿结节且并存癌。对文献中类似病例进行了回顾。此类病变的细针穿刺细胞学检查可能会产生误导,必须谨慎解读。类风湿关节炎患者的肺结节显然应按可能是癌来处理。
