Mixed squamous cell and glandular papilloma of the lung is an extremely rare benign epithelial tumor showing a mixture of squamous and glandular epithelium. Here, we report a case of mixed squamous cell and glandular papilloma that presented as a solitary nodule in the left lower lobe of a 64-year-old woman. Chest computed tomography demonstrated a lobulated mass in the basal segment of the left lower lobe. The patient underwent a lobectomy under the suspicion of lung malignancy. The histopathological diagnosis was mixed squamous cell and glandular papilloma.

Pyothorax-associated lymphoma is a relatively rare type of lymphoma that occurs in patients who have long histories of tuberculous pleuritis or induced pneumothorax. It is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of mainly the B-cell phenotype and is strongly associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection. A majority of these cases have been reported in Japan, although some cases have occurred in Western countries. Here, we describe a case of pyothorax-associated lymphoma in a patient with a 30-year history of chronic tuberculous empyema. The patient underwent decortication under the impression of chronic empyema with fistula. The histopathologic diagnosis was a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma associated chronic inflammation.

IgG4-related chronic sclerosing sialadenitis commonly occurs in the submandibular glands. The gold standard for diagnosis of IgG4-related chronic sclerosing sialadenitis is a tissue biopsy from the affected organ. Herein, we report the probability of occurrence of IgG4-related chronic sclerosing sialadenitis in both submandibular glands that developed at intervals of months. Therefore, long-term follow-up and whole-body evaluation are essential.

Silicone granulomas are rare, benign lesions that may occur after breast augmentation. Occasionally, a careful differential diagnosis is necessary because lymphadenopathy or malignancy is suspected based on an imaging study. A 56-year-old woman who visited the hospital due to a lung nodule in the left upper lobe (LUL) underwent a staging work-up with the suspicion of lung cancer. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography and chest computed tomography revealed the LUL nodule and a lesion in the left internal mammary chain (IMC), suggesting lymphadenopathy. Diagnostic wedge resection was performed, followed by curative surgery. The final biopsy result confirmed that the LUL nodule was pathologic stage IB adenocarcinoma; unexpectedly, the lesion in the left IMC was a silicone granuloma.
