RESUMO
Management of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) and micronodule (SPMN) is still debated. The use of 18F-FDG PET/CT or CT multislice screening for early lung cancer detection, have increased the frequency of displaying indeterminate single lung nodule with diameter between 0.1 cm and 2 cm. The first choice is to wait and do radiological follow-up, since the evaluation of temporal changes in a small mass may contribute to differentiate a malign from benign pathology. In case of unchanged images not capable of orientating the diagnostician or no possible preoperative diagnosis by bronchoscopy and percutaneous needle biopsy, surgical treatment is necessary allowing the histological characterization of lesion and a good prognosis of disease. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and muscle-sparing minithoracotomy have become routine, each of these furnishing precise indications. The purpose of the study was to establish the main investigative method for indeterminate lung nodules, considering the continuous evolution of endoscopic and radiological techniques.

The PJ, introduced by Rosen in the 1980, is a benign and localized mammary lesion in female under 30 years old. The most important clinical and histological features are: Diagnosis in juvenile age. A mass clinically localized. A nodule with histologic features of cyst, benign hyperplasia of ductal epithelium and galactophorus ducts dilatation (Swiss cheese disease). There is a correlation between patients with PJ and breast cancer there is an increment of breast cancer in familirs of patients with PJ. There is an increment of the risk to develop a K in situ in patients with PJ and apocrine metaplasia and/or adenomatosis and/or atypical mastoplasia. We describe the diffuse PJ in a girl of 23 years old from the 1996 to 2002.
