Imaging findings
A well-circumscribed, rounded opacity in the lower lung adjacent to the diaphragm, initially mimicking a Bochdalek hernia on chest radiographs.
Key takeaways
Round pneumonia can be a significant mimic of extrapulmonary lesions like hernias or tumors. CT is essential for definitive characterization when the appearance on plain film is ambiguous.
