All posts do not have to be videos...sometimes one or two images suffice. My plan is to try and put these up whenever there is something interesting with links to relevant posts, videos, cases of the day, etc.

56-years old with an incidentally detected lung nodule in the superior segment of the right lower lobe of the lung. It showed one calcific speck. No contrast. No PET. There was extrapleural fat retraction, suggesting this could be extra-pulmonary.

On biopsy, it was firm. Histopath shows cartilage.
This is a peripheral chondroid hamartoma of the lung. Likely so longstanding, that the pleura has puckered around it.
Similar case.
