|a1= The differential diagnoses are:
*Fungal – aspergilloma or granuloma
*Abscess of the right lung and abscess of the right cranial air sac. 
*Because of the size and irregularity of the mass, abscess was more probable than granuloma.
|l1=Air Sacculitis
|q2= How would you confirm the diagnosis?
|a2= Endoscopic examination with culture and sensitivity indicated a large abscess of the lung and air sac involving ''E. coli.''
