ABSTRACT
A 70-year-old man was admitted to our department for pulmonary nodule of 15 mm in diameter in the left lower lobe detected by chest computed tomography (CT). A possibility of malignant tumor could not be ruled out, and lung partial resection was performed. Pathological examination during operation revealed a coagulation necrosis and the lesion was finally diagnosed as pulmonary dirofilariasis.
