Primary pulmonary leiomyoma in a male [Primer Pulmoner Leiomiyomlu Bir Erkek Olgu]
Abstract
Primary pulmonary leiomyoma of the lung is benign in nature and is one of the rarest tumors of mesodermal origin. Because of the increasing number of rou-tine chest roentgenograms, these lesions are being discovered more frequently. Treatment is by conservative surgical resection and carries a favorable prognosis. We presented a 30-year-old patient with expectoration cough and night sweats who undergone resection due to a mass in left lower lobe and diagnosed primary pulmonary leiomyoma. © 2016, Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine.
