A 62-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of abnormal shadow on chest X-ray. Chest X-ray and CT showed a subpleural tumor 12 mm in diameter in the S8 segment of the right lung. Thoracoscopic observation revealed a subpleural black nodule. Wedge resection of the S8 segment was performed. Pathologically, the nodule was diagnosed as an intrapulmonary lymph node. It should be noted that thoracoscope was very useful for differentiation of intrapulmonary lymph node from other small malignancy.
一名62岁男性因胸部X光片出现异常阴影而入住我院。胸部X光片和CT显示右肺S8段有一个直径12毫米的胸膜下肿瘤。胸腔镜观察发现一个胸膜下黑色结节。对S8段进行了楔形切除术。病理检查显示，该结节被诊断为肺内淋巴结。需要注意的是，胸腔镜对于区分肺内淋巴结与其他小的恶性肿瘤非常有用。
