摘要

这张临床图片记录了一例罕见的快速进展性肺放线菌病病例，患者最初在肺癌诊所就诊。尽管放射学检查结果提示为恶性肿瘤，但活检结果与放线菌病的诊断一致。患者对长期抗生素治疗反应良好，临床症状明显改善。本病例强调了即使是进展迅速的病例也要考虑放线菌病的重要性，并强调了对疑似肺癌患者进行组织诊断的必要性。

Rapidly progressive pulmonary actinomycosis.

This clinical image documents a rare case of rapidly progressive pulmonary actinomycosis in a patient initially seen in lung cancer clinic. Despite radiological findings suggestive of malignancy, biopsy was consistent with a diagnosis of actinomycosis. The patient responded well to prolonged antibiotics with significant clinical improvement. This case highlights the importance of considering actinomycosis even in rapidly progressive cases and emphasises the need for tissue diagnosis in patients with suspected lung cancer.
