A 23-year-old man was transferred to this hospital because of cough, hoarseness, fever, and abnormalities on chest imaging. One month before admission, a nonproductive cough developed, followed by hoarseness, dyspnea on exertion, and fever. Imaging studies at another facility showed pulmonary and mediastinal masses and a lesion in the pelvis. Positron-emission tomographic scans obtained at this hospital showed 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-avid lesions. A diagnostic procedure was performed.
