Hamartoma of lung is a common tumor, majority of which are small and incidentally discovered during plain chest radiography. Our case is a 30-year-old gentleman with an extremely uncommon presentation of a common tumor, that is, a giant hamartoma of lung presenting as massive hemoptysis and intractable cough. To the best of our knowledge, such occurrence of giant pulmonary hamartoma is very uncommon and its presentation with massive hemoptysis is even more uncommon. Less than 20 cases of giant hamartoma of lung have been reported in the English literature so far.
肺错构瘤是一种常见的肿瘤,大多数体积较小,在胸部X线平片检查时偶然发现。我们的病例是一位30岁的男性,他患有一种常见肿瘤却表现出极为罕见的症状,即巨大肺错构瘤,表现为大量咯血和顽固性咳嗽。据我们所知,如此巨大的肺错构瘤非常罕见,而其表现为大量咯血则更为罕见。迄今为止,英文文献中报道的巨大肺错构瘤病例不足20例。
