Abstract

Plasma cell granuloma of the lung is an uncommon benign inflammatory pseudotumor. Although it typically presents as a solitary mass on chest radiography, several chest film appearances have been described. Three cases are presented that illustrate the variable range and nonspecificity of CT appearances of plasma cell granuloma of the lung. Computed tomography is useful in the evaluation of these lesions primarily to establish important anatomic relationships associated with each of the various manifestations.
