The paper describes a rare case of catamenial hemoptysis in which thoracic endometriosis presented radiographically as a solitary pulmonary nodule with an internal cavity and surrounding ground-glass opacity. The authors report the clinical presentation and imaging findings and link them to thoracic endometriosis as the underlying cause. A major limitation is that the evidence comes from a single case report, which cannot establish generalizable diagnostic patterns. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically reports thoracic endometriosis presenting as catamenial hemoptysis with a solitary pulmonary nodule appearance.
