Аннотация
BACKGROUND: There are few cases of pulmonary granulomatous changes secondary to primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). No case of granulomatous lung disease secondary to PBC misdiagnosed as lung cancer had been reported.
CASE SUMMARY: A middle-aged woman presented with lung nodules and was misdiagnosed with lung cancer by positron emission tomography/computed tomography. She underwent left lobectomy, and the pathology of the nodules showed granulomatous inflammation, which was then treated with antibiotics. However, a new nodule appeared. Further investigation with lung biopsy and liver serology led to the diagnosis of PBC, and chest computed tomography indicated significant reduction in the pulmonary nodule by treatment with methylprednisolone and ursodeoxycholic acid.
CONCLUSION: Diagnosis of pulmonary nodules requires integrating various clinical data to avoid unnecessary pulmonary lobectomy.
