A 31-year-old female visited O.P.D. of internal medicine, Kyung Hee Medical center, with the chief complaint of generalized weakness and headache. She took a routine chest P-A and there was a 6.5 x 7.5 cm sized round mass in the right middle lung field. She admitted to the Dept. of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery under the impression of malignant bronchogenic carcinoma with the remit of bronchoscopy and sputum cytology and tomogram. Middle and lower lobectomy of right lung was performed and postoperative surgical biopsy revealed out the plasma cell granuloma. The plasma cell granuloma may occur as a solitary nodule in the lung or be associated with systemic disease, plasma protein imbalance, or nonspecific local inflammatory reaction . More than two third of the reported patients were less than 30 year of age. Grossly the lesion appears reddish-brown and microscopic features include pallisade or a cartwheel distribution of plasma cells with Russel bodies and amyloid. Local excision or lobectomy has been curative in most cases. [KTCS 1981;3:225-227]
