Imaging findings
Perilymphatic conglomerate micronodularity in the upper lungs (more prominent on the left), and a dense consolidation with air bronchograms and surrounding ground-glass opacity in the medial left lower lobe. All areas were FDG avid on PET.
Key takeaways
MALT lymphoma can present as multifocal peribronchial/perilymphatic nodules and consolidations. It was an incidental finding during breast cancer staging and showed moderate FDG avidity.
