Multiple Phantom Tumor of the Lung: A Complex Appearance Resolving with Appropriate Intervention

The figure may bring about inaccurate invasive diagnostic interventions. We report a heavy smoker patient with multiple phantom tumors in the right lung resolved with medical management. This case report provides records for a timely management of similar patients.
