Dear Friends,
Muppet is concerned about the few responses in the last case. He wants to show an easy case to stimulate participation. Showing pre-op radiographs of a 41-year-old woman with rectal prolapse. The opacity in the right lung was not seen in the CT. What do you think?

Dear Friends,
Muppet considers himself a celebrity and, like everybody else, he wants to show you a selfie. Today’s case is provided by my good friend Dr. Fernandez Alarza. Radiographs belong to a 33-year-old woman with moderate dyspnoea. I showed it to Muppet and since he is the smartest guy in the Universe, he made the right diagnosis up to the last finding.
Can you guess Muppet’s diagnosis? What do you see?
