When the granuloma stays around, the body slowly deposits calcium into the granuloma as the scar matures. Because calcium is easy to see on an x-ray, we often (up to 25% of patients in Ohio) will see some calcified granulomas in the lung and also in other organs, especially the spleen.Often these granulomas appear as small nodules to the radiologist. They are benign and usually asymptomatic.he short answer is that I would not worry about calcified granulomas and this is why. A granuloma is a form of inflammation in the body where immune cells encircle and form a ball around some type of infectious organism and hopefully clears away the infection.
But that doesnât mean that every noncalcified lung nodule is cancerous. These can also be caused by inflammatory and infectious diseases or they can be scar tissue. The definition of a noncalcified lung nodule is that it is a lesion up to 3 cm in size which is totally enveloped in lung tissue. The shape is spherical.If the size is greater than 3 cm, the nodule is considered a mass and not a lesion.hen you have a noncalcified lung nodule that is very small, sometimes the doctors just want to watch it to see if it does grow. If it does grow, the next step would be to have a needle aspiration/biopsy performed.
