Linfomas pulmonares: avaliação por tomografia computadorizada
This paper describes the tomographic appearance of pulmonary lymphomas. We studied the thoracic computed tomographies of ten patients with biopsy-proven diagnoses non-Hodgkin's and Hodgkin's disease. The most common radiologic findings in this series are the alveolar opacities with air bronchograms (n=8). Other manifestations include multiple pulmonary nodules (n=4), thickening of broncho-vascular bundles (n=3) and foci of ground-glass attenuation (n=2). The present series confirms the results published in available literature about the radiographic appearance of the disease.
