[Pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma with lymph node metastasis].

Sclerosing hemangioma is unusual pulmonary tumor. During a routine care evaluation, an abnormal shadow was detected in the chest X-ray films of a 38-year-old woman. Chest computed tomography scanning showed a nodule, 3.9 cm in diameter, in the left S6 pulmonary segment. Bronchoscopy performed before the operation could not establish the diagnosis. Since low-grade malignant tumor wassuggested by frozen section analysis at surgery, segmentectomy of left S6 and sampling of interlober lymph node were performed. The tumor was diagnosed as a plmonary sclerosing hemangioma. Metastatic leasion in the interlober lymph node was pathologically confirmed.
