Abstract
Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma (PHG) is an uncommon lung disease that usually presents as bilateral multiple nodules, and more rarely as a solitary nodule. An exaggerated immune response to antigenic stimuli resulting from infection or an autoimmune process has been suggested as the cause of PHG. Here, we describe a rare case of solitary PHG that was detected in a family member after tuberculosis had been confirmed in his father, without any background of infectious disease or autoimmune abnormality.
