Sumario:Primary pulmonary Hodgkin lymphoma (PPHL) is very rare and typically involves the superior portion of the lung. Pulmonary involvement is observed in 15–40% of Hodgkin lymphoma patients. Three such patients who presented with an unusual form of PPHL in radiological studies, i.e., multiloculated cavitary lesions, were admitted to our hospital. These lesions represent a new pathological and radiological feature of PPHL.
