A 47-year-old woman was admitted with recurrent pneumothorax. Preoperative chest computed tomography (CT) showed multiple lung nodules and cysts bilaterally. She had undergone enucleatic myomectomy 12 years earlier. Video-associated thoracoscopic biopsy was performed. Histopathologically, there were bulla-like dilated cystic changes, the walls of which showed spindle cell proliferation, causing pneumothorax. Hormone therapy was started after benign metastasizing leiomyoma resection; pneumothorax has not recurred in 7 months. Multiple residual lung nodules have decreased or disappeared on CT.
一名47岁女性因复发性气胸入院。术前胸部计算机断层扫描(CT)显示双侧有多个肺结节和囊肿。她12年前接受过子宫肌瘤摘除术。进行了电视辅助胸腔镜活检。组织病理学检查显示有大疱样扩张性囊性改变,其壁显示梭形细胞增殖,导致气胸。在良性转移性平滑肌瘤切除术后开始激素治疗;7个月来气胸未复发。CT显示多个残留肺结节已减少或消失。
