Özet

Lymphomatoid granulomatosis is a rare extranodal Epstein-Barr virus-driven B-cell lymphoproliferative disease, involving predominantly lung, less often skin, kidney, and central nervous system. Here, we present a pediatric case with primary immunodeficiency, diagnosed with pathologically proven pulmonary grade-III lymphomatoid granulomatosis.18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging demonstrated18F-FDG avid pulmonary masses with central air-bronchograms and cavitations. Although the definitive diagnosis depends on biopsy,18F-FDG PET/CT serves as a complementary imaging tool to evaluate the extent of the disease and response to treatment.
