Migratory nodules in the lung: lymphomatoid granulomatosis.
Leukemia & Lymphoma 2003 January
A 45-year-old woman was admitted with complaints of non-productive cough, chest pain, fatigue and weight loss in the last 4 months. On physical examination moderate hepatosplenomegaly and crackles most notably on the basal region of the right lung were evident. Serial chest X-rays and computed tomographies revealed a migratory nodular infiltration pattern, changing in location and size in both the lungs. The histopathological diagnosis of the open lung biopsy was lymphomatoid granulomatosis (LG) with a marked angioinvasive lymphocytic perivascular and peribronchial infiltration pattern. In the immunohistochemical analyses LCA, CD-79, CD-20 were positive, while CD-30 was negative. No response could have been achieved under combination chemotherapy and the patient died from progressive disease. LG is a rare disease and a difficult diagnosis in the routine clinical practice. This report emphasises that, LG should be considered especially when there are migratory nodules of varying sizes in lungs.
