This case report highlights the importance of early diagnosis using contrast\u2010enhanced chest CT scans and a multidisciplinary approach to prevent misdiagnosis that can increase morbidity and mortality. A 57\u2010year\u2010old male presented with severe respiratory symptoms, including haemoptysis and weight loss. The patient was initially misdiagnosed with lung cancer due to a necrotic mass based on imaging. Subsequent biopsies revealed no signs of malignancy. A multidisciplinary team concluded that the findings suggested necrotizing pneumonia rather than a lung tumour. The patient was successfully treated with antibiotics, leading to significant improvement. This case highlighted the importance of accurate and timely diagnosis in managing necrotizing pneumonia, particularly when it mimics malignancy. Early recognition, supported by appropriate diagnostic tools and targeted antibiotic therapy, is crucial for appropriate management of necrotizing pneumonia and achieving positive outcomes. A multidisciplinary approach is essential to ensure comprehensive care, prevent misdiagnosis and avoid unnecessary treatments. Prompt and precise intervention can significantly enhance patient prognosis and reduce the risk of complications associated with necrotizing pneumonia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/rcr2.70264","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,9]],"date-time":"2025-07-09T14:31:09Z","timestamp":1752071469000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Necrotizing Pneumonia Mimicking Lung Tumour: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Rahel Yuana","family":"Sadikim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonology and Respiratory Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Airlangga University  Surabaya Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4627-0511","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Isnin Anang","family":"Marhana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonology and Respiratory Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Airlangga University  Surabaya Indonesia"},{"name":"Department of Pulmonology and Respiratory Medicine Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital  Surabaya Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Herley Windo","family":"Setiawan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonology and Respiratory Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Airlangga University  Surabaya Indonesia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.18683\/germs.2023.1402"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MCP.0000000000000571"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/IDR.S419294"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/864159"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm12062256"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3928\/19382359\u201020170120\u201002"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s41479\u2010017\u20100035\u20100"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00045413-200301000-00004"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/resp.12943"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm11175009"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598\u2010021\u201098513\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/pathogens13110984"}],"container-title":["Respirology Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/rcr2.70264","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,24]],"date-time":"2025-09-24T13:43:07Z","timestamp":1758721387000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/rcr2.70264"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,7]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/rcr2.70264"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/rcr2.70264","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2051-3380","2051-3380"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2051-3380"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2051-3380"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,7]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2025-05-15","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-06-21","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-07-08","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e70264"}}
