An unusual radiographic finding in pulmonary parenchymal endometriosis.
Thoracic endometriosis is an uncommon disorder. In most cases, the diagnosis is based on history alone and radiographic findings depend on the menstrual cycle. CT findings include ill-defined or well-defined opacities, nodular lesions, cavities, cystic changes and bullous formation. We report a case of pulmonary parenchymal endometriosis with an unusual radiographic finding.
