Popis: We experienced a relatively rare case of inflammatory pseudotumor of the lung. An 18-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of an abnormal shadow in the right upper lung field on chest X-ray. The diagnosis of inflammatory pseudotumor has been often made by postoperative histopathological study. In this case, the diagnosis could be established preoperatively by an echo-guided percutaneous needle biopsy which permit to obtain plenty of specimen.
