(A) CT axial imaging showed a well‐circumscribed solid nodule in the lower lobe of the lung. (B) Histological features of the case, primary pulmonary meningioma (PPM) showed as meningothelial‐like cells and spindle‐shaped cells arranged in a focal whorl pattern and fibroblastic patterns on hematoxylin–eosin (H&E) staining (100×). (C) In immunohistochemistry study, the tumor cells showed positive staining for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) (400×) and (D) Somatostatin Receptor 2 (SSTR2) (400×).
