Cavitary lung lesions can be seen due to tuberculosis, malignancy, and rheumatological diseases. Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations are rare lesions that may contain cavitation. Our case is a pulmonary arteriovenous malformation encountered in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis who is receiving immunosuppressive therapy.
