摘要

Approximately one-third of patients with a malignant disease develop lung metastases. Two-thirds of malignant tumor metastases are located in the peripheral third of the lung and present as well-circumscribed nodules. In this study, we present a 35-year-old male patient diagnosed with alveolar echinococcosis, a rare condition that can radiologically mimic pulmonary malignant metastases, posing a diagnostic challenge.
