Abstract

We report the case of a 29-year-old female with a 1.1 cm × 1.1 cm solitary nodule adjacent to the pleura in the upper lobe of the right lung that was diagnosed as Mycobacterium chelonae using electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy combined with next generation sequencing. This diagnostics technology shows great promise in identifying peripheral pulmonary nodules, especially infectious lesions.
