Phantom Tumor: A Source of Diagnostic Error
Received Date: Jun 06, 2023 / Published Date: Jul 31, 2023
Abstract
Phantom tumors are usually found in the minor fissure, but they can also be found, although rarely, in the oblique fissure. Interlobar Pseudo-tumor also known as phantom tumor, or vanishing tumor, is a localized collection of fluid that occurs between two lobes of the lung. While phantom tumors are relatively rare, they are important to recognize as they can be mistaken for pleural-based diseases, including neoplasia.
