Pulmonary granular cells tumours are very rare tumours, most probably originating from Schwann cells. Although rare, clinical and biological presentation is diverse. They are most commonly endobronchial masses, usually a solitary pulmonary lesion, although in up to 20% they can occur as multiple lesions and can be mistaken for malignant process. In spite of infiltrative growth, and rare direct lymph node invasion, they have a very good prognosis if completely removed. Here we present two cases from the archives of the Institute of Pathology, University of Zagreb School of Medicine, with literature review.
肺颗粒细胞瘤是非常罕见的肿瘤，很可能起源于施万细胞。尽管罕见，但其临床和生物学表现多样。它们最常见于支气管内肿物，通常为孤立性肺病变，不过高达20%的病例可表现为多发病变，并且可能被误诊为恶性病变。尽管呈浸润性生长，且罕见直接侵犯淋巴结，但如果能完全切除，其预后非常好。在此，我们展示萨格勒布大学医学院病理学研究所存档的两例病例，并进行文献综述。
