Pulmonary hyalinising granuloma : a report of two cases
2019
Overview
Pulmonary hyalinising granuloma (PHG) is a rare fibrosclerosing inflammatory lung condition of
unknown aetiology. It is characterised by solitary or multiple pulmonary nodules that are usually found incidentally
while imaging the chest for other reasons. We report two cases of histologically proven PHG diagnosed at the Royal
Hospital, Muscat, Oman. The first case was a 71-year-old male patient who presented in 2010 with a dry cough,
weight loss and bilateral pulmonary nodules. The second case was a 58-year-old male patient who presented in
2012 and was found to have incidental bilateral pulmonary nodules on chest X-ray. Both patients were started on
prednisolone and on follow-up the PHG nodules remained stable. Although there is no definitive treatment, PHG
generally has an excellent prognosis.
