ABSTRACT
Lobus v. azygos (lobe of the azygos vein, azygos lobe) is an accessory lobe of the right upper lobe of the lung that corresponds to the anatomical variety. The presence of expansive lesions in it represents unusual radiographic findings. This paper presents the case of a patient with an extensive expansion process in azygos lobe, radiologically diagnosed by standard radiography (X-ray) and Multislice Computed Tomography Scan (MSCT). The process was subsequently treated surgically and confirmed histologically as a non-small-cell lung adenocarcinoma.
