Abstract

A 47-year-old man was admitted to our hospital in March, 1984, because of mass in the left middle lung field on a chest roentgenogram. There was no superficial lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly. Bronchoscopy and lymphangiography showed no another lesion except for the pulmonary manifestation. Hamartoma was suspected by both bronchography and lung CT, and lobectomy was carried out. The pathological diagnosis of Hodgkin disease was made. From clinical evidences, the patient was classified as stage II E. He was treated with a combination of vincristine, procarbazine hydrochloride, methotorexate and prednisolone and discharged. Primary involvement of the lung by Hodgkin's lymphoma is uncommon, among the extranodal manifestations.
