Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Pathology
  • Toxicology

Background:

  • Lung granulomas are common findings in pathological examinations.
  • Identifying the specific etiology of granulomas can be challenging, particularly in clinical settings.

Observation:

  • Two distinct cases of lung granulomas are presented.
  • Case 1: A 19-year-old male intravenous drug user administered Alnagon pills.
  • Case 2: A 54-year-old female occupationally exposed to acrylonitrile fibers.

Findings:

  • The presented cases illustrate non-typical etiologies for lung granulomas.
  • Histopathological examination of lung tissue revealed granulomatous inflammation.

Implications:

  • These cases underscore the importance of considering diverse etiological factors in lung granuloma diagnosis.
