Today we have a 13-year-old male castrated DSH feline that presented for a 3-week history of a productive cough. What are your findings?

en la imagen dos se observa un aumento de radiodensidad que podria ser compatible con linfonodulos traqueobronquiales.
I can see air opacity lateral to the area described as atelactic caudal left cranial lung lobe. Could the soft tissue opacity instead be fluid in the mediastinum extending lateral to the hilar mass or extension laterally of mass? The mass that was aspirated is described as the the ‘larger’ one. Does that mean the perihilar mass? That would have to be lymphnode as there is no perhilar lung – right? But is this typical/atypical to have a larger lymphnode than primary? The cases I have seen have of pulmonary adenocarcinoma have had a very large single caudal lung mass and no gross lymphadenopathy.
