Overview

Common causes of multiple pulmonary nodules include pulmonary neoplasms and tumor metastasis from outside of the lungs. Additional life threatening causes that present with multiple pulmonary nodules include cardiopulmonary conditions, such as aneurysm and infarction. Additional causes include granulomas.
