In a retrospective study, thin-walled cystic lesions were identified in four patients with proved bronchioalveolar carcinoma (BAC). The radiographic appearances are described, and possible mechanisms of formation of the lesions are discussed. Although such appearances due to BAC have rarely been described in the literature, the authors believe that the differential diagnosis of thin-walled cystic lesions associated with consolidation should include BAC.
