Abstract

A 57-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for an abnormal chest shadow found during routine chest radiography. She had no respiratory symptoms. Her medical history included dyslipidemia, and her surgical history included conization for cervical cancer at age 38 years. She was a social drinker and ex-smoker of approximately 10 cigarettes per day (from ages 20 to 30 years); she denied recreational drug use.
