Case description
a smoker presented with haemoptysis .
chest X ray reveals ,a right hilar mass, occupying right mid and lower zones .
the homogenous opacity has spiculating appearance at the periphery .
there is no obeying of anatomical segments and absence of airbronchogram . ,so rules out possibility of pneumonic consolidation.
learning point: mass arising from hilum in a smoker always suspect bronchogenic carcinoma
