摘要: Primary nodular amyloidosis of the lung is an uncommon manifestation. The disease runs a benign course, but offers diagnostic problems due to non-specific radiological features entering big field solitary nodule. We describe case 60 year old man with multiple nodules on left operated and therapeutic video-assisted thoracoscopy discuss possibilities, if any, suspecting such through radiologic characteristics along findings from patient's history, physical examination laboratory tests.
