Pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor is rare nonmalignant pathology. Etiology of pseudotumor is not clear, but histology, forms of the disease, clinical symptoms, laboratory and radiological findings are well described in the literature. We present the case report of 12 year old girl, who suffers from pulmonary and mediastinal pseudotumor.
