Abstract
Pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (PSH) is a relatively rare, homogenous solitary tumor. Its complex histology may suggest a number of maligna ncies. We report one case diagnosed in a 62-years-old woman with a ten dency to benign tumors (uterine fibromas) and cystes (thyroide, kidney ). Bronchoscopy was normal. Pulmonary scintiscan was not done. Chest X -ray showed a 2x2 cm solitary, dense, homogenous, delimited nodule of the LLL. The intraoperatory diagnosis of adenocarcinoma led to lobecto my. The final diagnosis of PSH was done on fixed and stained samples. She is in good condition after 13 months of follow-up.
