A solitary pulmonary nodule was discovered on roentgenographic examination in a 56-year-old man with rheumatoid arthritis of recent onset. At thoracotomy a left parahilar mass with histologic features of a necrobiotic rheumatoid nodule was found. Although rare, solitary nodules of the lung have been found but the distinction from carcinoma could not be established without removal of the lesion.
