  • Title: [Pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor: difficulties in diagnosis and prognosis].
    Author: Ayadi-Kaddour A, Abid L, Braham E, Saïji E, Ismail O, Smati B, Kilani T, El Mezni F.
    Journal: Tunis Med; 2006 Mar; 84(3):205-8. PubMed ID: 16755965.
    Abstract:
    Inflammatory pseudotumors are uncommon benign lesions of the lung of unknown origin, that may show aggressive behavior. Although pseudotumors constitute less than 1% of all lung tumors, they are reported to be the most common cause of solitary lung masses in children. Complete resection, when possible, is safe and leads to excellent survival. The case presented here highlights difficulties in clinical and histologic diagnosis.
