title: [Plasma cell granuloma of the lung. Apropos of a case and review of the literature].
abstract: A case of plasma cell granuloma of the lung is presented, and the clinical, radiological, histological, diagnostic and therapeutic data obtained from 97 published cases are reviewed. Since the disease is usually peripheral, the diagnosis rests on surgical biopsy and histological examination. In the case presented here, it was established on intrabronchial biopsy obtained by fibroscopy.
