The chest x-ray showed an inhomogeneous opacity seen in the apex of right lung. (Figure 1, Panel A). Following chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the chest x-ray showed near total resolution of the lesion (Figure 1, Panel B), and the computed tomography of the chest showed regression of the lesion with residual sub-centimetric pleural-based nodules (Figure 3, Panel B).

A right lung FNAC showed numerous alveolar macrophages and histiocytes with myeloblasts and auer rods suggestive of granulocytic sarcoma right lung (Figure 2).
Panel A: computed tomography of thorax shows a soft tissue density lesion in the right lung measuring with a pleural-based nodule in the apical basal segment of right lower lobe. Panel B: computed tomography of thorax shows near total resolution of the soft tissue density lesion following chemotherapy and radiation.

Also a nodule measuring 1.3 x 0.9 cm was seen in the posterior segment of the right upper lobe with a pleural-based nodule in the apical basal segment of right lower lobe (Figure 3). Following chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the chest x-ray showed near total resolution of the lesion (Figure 1, Panel B), and the computed tomography of the chest showed regression of the lesion with residual sub-centimetric pleural-based nodules (Figure 3, Panel B).
