Overview
Common causes of solitary pulmonary nodule, include: tuberculosis, primary lung cancer, granulomas, and rheumatic disease. Solitary pulmonary nodules can be life-threatening if they are malignant neoplasms, cardio-pulmonary diseases and infection, requiring prompt diagnosis and differentiation from benign etiologies.
