    We report a 26-year old lady who presented with chronic cough and breathlessness associated with subtle
    TB symptoms for 1 year. Her CT thorax showed multiple cavitating pulmonary nodules with mediastinal and
    cervical lymphadenopathy. Cervical lymph node biopsy and CT-guided pulmonary biopsy at our centre
    confirmed the diagnosis of Hodgkin’s lymphoma with pulmonary infiltrations. She was successfully treated
    with ABVD regime but later developed life-threatening bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Sadly, she
    succumbed to respiratory failure due to severe pneumonia with possibility of bleomycin-induced pulmonary
    fibrosis. Multiple cavitating pulmonary nodules secondary to lymphoma is rare and in TB endemic area, it
    may result in delayed diagnosis and treatment.
