Multiple cavitating pulmonary nodules in Hodgkin's disease

Although pulmonary involvement in Hodgkin's disease is common, the presentation with multiple cavitating lung lesions is exceedingly rare, having been described in only five patients. The authors present a case report of a 27-year-old woman with nodular sclerosing Hodgkin's disease treated with conventional chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation. The patient relapsed with multiple cavitating lung lesions requiring open-lung biopsy for diagnosis.
