Abstract
The incidence of malignant disease ranges from 10 to 70% with an average of 40% [1] [2] [3] [4]. As the progression of pulmonary malignancy is high, pulmonary lesions need to be diagnosed early. Solitary pulmonary masses are readily misinterpreted radiologically due to their morphological characteristics. However, many benign lesions can radiologically present as malignant mass lesion. Here we report 4 such cases who were clinically and radiologically pulmonary malignant mass suspect but eventually turned out to be benign lesions on HPE correlation.
