Abstract

Pulmonary capillariasis is a zoonotic disease caused by the cosmopolitan nematode Capillaria aerophila, which circulates among wild carnivorous and omnivorous mammals. Only 11 cases have been documented to date. We describe a cryptic case of pulmonary capillariasis in a Serbian woman that resembled a bronchial carcinoma.
