ABSTRACT
A 58-year-old man presented with right backache and bloody sputum. Chest X-ray revealed a nodular opacity in the right lung. Since could not obtain a diagnosis by bronchoscopy, we performed a lower lobectomy. Histopathologically, there were irregularly shaped necrotizing granulomas and an area of acute hemorrhagic, eosinophilic abscess. We suspected paragonimiasis. The diagnosis of paragonimiasis miyazakii was confirmed by ELISA. This is a valuable case of suspected paragonimiasis confirmed pathologically.
