Zusammenfassung
We report the case of a patient with a history of atrial fibrillation and a prosthetic valve who came to the hospital referring progressive increase in dyspnea of one month duration. After an extrapulmonary right upper lobe lesion was objectified in the chest radiograph, she was hospitalized to continue the study, performing a thoracoabdominal CT in which the injury remains unable to rule out the existence of a neoplasm at this level. After 7 days of depletive treatment we observed the disappearance of the lesion in a new x-ray, confirming the diagnosis of phantom tumor.
