Abstract

A case of pseudotumorous silicosis in a founder aged 76 is described. Tumors were localized bilaterally infraclavicularly, the right tumor was in the state of decomposing. In the left hilus were found the enlarged egg-shell like calcifications of the lymph gland. Inspite of massive tumors the lung function of the patient was relatively preserved owing to the prevalence of restrictive pulmonary changes without a significant obstructive component, what also accounts for the absence of severe cardiovascular disorders.
