Can a Solitary Pulmonary Nodule With Positive PET Scan in a Heavy Smoker be Something Other Than Lung Cancer? A Case Report of Pulmonary Hydatid Cyst and Literature Review

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) in a heavy smoker patient is commonly considered a lung cancer. However, in endemic regions, differential diagnosis should include pulmonary hydatid cyst. We present a 65‐year‐old heavy smoker male with a 5 cm SPN. He had negative serology, and inconclusive PET‐CT. So, it mimicked malignancy.
