摘要

inflammatory pseudotumor of the lung is a rare condition that represents a dilemma because the radiographic, macroscopic and pathological aspects mimic a malignant process. herein, we report the case of a patient complaining of respiratory difficulty who, after being appropriately assessed, was submitted to exploratory thoracotomy. an initial diagnosis of pseudotumor was subsequently confirmed through immunohistochemistry. in addition to presenting data relating to clinical history, we also discuss radiographic, histopathological and surgical aspects, as well as treatment options.
