摘要

矽肺病是一种重要的职业病，由吸入二氧化硅引起，可导致肺部炎症和纤维化。矽肺可误诊为恶性疾病，因为两者在FDG-PET成像上均可表现为高代谢病变。本病例系列描述了3例基于FDG-PET检查结果怀疑有原发性肺恶性肿瘤的患者，但发现有肺矽肺病。通过这个系列，我们展示了组织学检查如何区分矽肺和恶性肿瘤，并提供建议，以帮助临床医生区分这两种疾病。

Silicosis Mimicking Lung Malignancy: A Case Series.

Silicosis, an important occupational disease, is caused by inhalation of silicon dioxide and can lead to pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis. Silicosis can be misdiagnosed for malignant disease, as both can present with hypermetabolic lesions on FDG-PET imaging. This case series describes three patients who were suspected to have a primary lung malignancy based on FDG-PET findings, but were found to have pulmonary silicosis. With this series, we demonstrate how histologic examination can differentiate between silicosis and malignancy and provide suggestions to help clinicians differentiate between these two illnesses.
