Malignancies can cause mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy that is easily mistaken for sarcoidosis. We report a patient with breast cancer who initially had respiratory symptoms and thoracic lymphadenopathy. Despite the rarity of breast cancer manifesting in this way, the importance of obtaining histologic confirmation of suspected sarcoidosis is stressed.
恶性肿瘤可导致纵隔和肺门淋巴结肿大,容易被误诊为结节病。我们报告一例乳腺癌患者,该患者最初有呼吸道症状和胸部淋巴结肿大。尽管乳腺癌以这种方式表现较为罕见,但强调了对疑似结节病进行组织学确诊的重要性。
