This document discusses unilateral hilar enlargement as seen on medical imaging. It presents 4 figures showing examples of conditions that can cause unilateral hilar lymph node enlargement, including primary tuberculosis, tuberculosis with a focal lung lesion, lung cancer metastases to hilar lymph nodes, and pulmonary embolism leading to enlarged pulmonary arteries. The document uses imaging examples to illustrate different pathologies that can result in unilateral hilar abnormalities.

PGR-FCPS III SIMS/SHL Fig C 12-1 Primary tuberculosis. Enlargement of right hilar nodes without a discrete parenchymal Fig C 12-2 Primary tuberculosis. The combination of a focal parenchymal lesion (arrows) and enlarged right hilar lymph nodes produces the classic primary complex. Fig C 12-3 Lymphadenopathy due to oat cell carcinoma of the lung. In addition to left hilar adenopathy (open arrow), there is enlargement of anterior mediastinal lymph nodes (closed arrows). Fig C 12-4 Pulmonary embolism. (A) Baseline chest radiograph demonstrates normal-sized pulmonary arteries. (B) Enlargement of the main pulmonary artery (small arrow) and right pulmonary artery (large arrow) coincides with the onset of the patient's symptoms. (C) Arteriogram demonstrates multiple bilateral pulmonary emboli and a large right saddle embolus (arrow).
