Abstract
Clinically significant pulmonary involvement in inflammatory bowel disease is uncommon, and presentation to thoracic surgeons is rare. A literature review found no such cases in the cardiothoracic surgery network (CTSNET) journals. We describe a patient presenting with a lung mass presumed to be lung cancer that ultimately transpired to be pulmonary involvement of inflammatory bowel disease.
