Abstract:
We present an interesting case report of a 52-year-old man with a superior sulcus tumor. To evaluate the suspicious left lung tumor, 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) was used. Increased FDG level was indicative of a malignant tumor. Left thoracotomy revealed a textiloma retained during cardiac surgery.
