N2 - Granulomatous fungal infections are common worldwide, and they can result in mediastinal lymphadenopathy. However, infectious pulmonary artery masses are rare and have only been associated with tuberculosis or mucormycosis. Here, we present a case of histoplasmosis resulting in a pulmonary artery mass, which was treated with debulking and reconstruction of pulmonary vasculature.
