Calcifying fibrous tumors are uncommon lesions. These lesions are made up of hyalinized collagenous fibrotic tissues interspersed with lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates and extensive dystrophic calcifications mimicking psammomatous features. Calcifying tumor of pleura is rarely presented. Multiple calcifying tumor of pleuras have been reported extremely seldom. Forty-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with complaints of dyspnea. Because of the multiple soft tissue formations at the pleural region with the largest diameter of 2 cm on thorax computed tomography, surgical intervention was planed. Frozen sections of pleural biopsies that were taken during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery were reported as calcifying fibrous tumor. Because of the presence of multiple lesions and pleural adhesions, curative pleural decortication was performed. This case is presented with extremely rare entity of multiple calcifying tumor of plevras.
钙化性纤维性肿瘤是罕见病变。这些病变由透明变性的胶原纤维组织构成,其间散在淋巴细胞和浆细胞浸润以及广泛的营养不良性钙化,类似砂粒体特征。胸膜钙化性肿瘤很少见。多发性胸膜钙化性肿瘤的报道极为罕见。一名40岁男性患者因呼吸困难入院。胸部计算机断层扫描显示胸膜区域有多个软组织肿物,最大直径为2厘米,遂计划进行手术干预。电视辅助胸腔镜手术期间获取的胸膜活检冰冻切片报告为钙化性纤维性肿瘤。由于存在多个病变及胸膜粘连,进行了根治性胸膜剥脱术。本文报道了极为罕见的多发性胸膜钙化性肿瘤病例。
