Inflammatory pseudotumor, also known as plasma cell granuloma, is a rare, benign tumor that affects at all ages and frequently involves the lung, gastrointestinal tract, and salivary gland. They are the most common, isolated, primary lesion of the lung in children less than 16 years of age, and usually present as circumscribed, peripheral, parenchymal tumors, which may be static or increase slowly in size without causing symptoms. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice bacause of the location and benign nature of this lesion. The prognosis after resection is excellent. Adjuvant therapeutic modalities include radiation and steroid therapy. Recently, we experienced a case of inflammatory pseudotumor of the lung, the diagnosis of which was made by percutaneous fine needle aspiration cytology examination. We tried steroid and the lesions of the lung was completely resolved. We report this case with a review of literatures.
