Abstract
Botryomycosis is a relatively rare disease found only in case reports. Most
observed cases have been of cutaneous or visceral type. Given the prolonged
duration and nature of symptoms, pulmonary botryomycosis may be mistaken
for malignancy. We report the first case of pulmonary botryomycosis in Iran
initially mimicking bronchogenic carcinoma.
