Abstract

Alveolar adenoma of the lung is a rare benign neoplasm with proliferation of alveolar epithelium and septal mesenchyme. This unusual neoplasm presents as a solitary mass on chest roentgenograms, especially in older, asymptomatic patients. We report a case of this unusual neoplasm and describe the histologic and radiographic features of this tumor, which should be included in the differential diagnosis of a solitary pulmonary mass.

摘要

肺肺泡腺瘤是一种罕见的良性肿瘤，由肺泡上皮和间隔间充质增生形成。这种不常见的肿瘤在胸部X线片上表现为孤立性肿块，尤其在老年无症状患者中。我们报告一例这种不常见的肿瘤，并描述该肿瘤的组织学和影像学特征，这些特征应纳入孤立性肺肿块的鉴别诊断。
