Abstract

The authors record the case of a patient who was under review for pulmonary tuberculosis in whom an Abrikossof granular cell tumour and a cyst were found which had developed from an intrapulmonary lymph node. These two entities are rare and their association extremely unusual and have never been described until now. We review their histogenesis.
