Primary Pulmonary Hodgkin’s Lymphoma: Two Case Reports

2014 
Hodgkin’s lymphoma presenting as a primary pulmonary lesion is rare with an incidence of 3.6% in extranodal lymphomas. It needs to be distinguished from nodal Hodgkin’s lymphoma and malignancies secondarily involving the lung. It disseminates in the later stages and involves other lymph nodes and organs early and prompt diagnosis is important.
