Abstract
Background. primary pulmonary Hodgkin's lymphoma (PPHL) is a rare disease that is characterized by parenchymal or nodular lung damage. Description of the clinical case. The article presents the case of a young woman who suffered from a productive dry cough and periodic left-sided chest pain for three months. Computed tomography of the chest showed a tumor lesion in the upper lobe of the left lung with spreading to the root of the left lung with signs of germination in the surrounding structures and tissues. Histological and immuno-histochemical studies confirmed the diagnosis of PPHL. Conclusion. PPHL is a non-standard etiology of lung lesions. Despite the difficulties of diagnosis, awareness of such a disease is crucial in determining the correct tactics for managing non-standard clinical cases.
