Pulmonary sclerosing pneumocytoma (PSP) is a rare and interesting pulmonary tumour that presents a diagnostic challenge to the surgeon due to its bland symptomatology, indolent course, non-specific radiological features and ambiguous histopathological findings, which could lead to errors in management and prognostication. Herein, we present a series of 4 patients with PSP who were managed in our institution over a period of 8 years and briefly discuss relevant literature.
肺硬化性细胞瘤(PSP)是一种罕见且有趣的肺部肿瘤,因其症状不明显、病程进展缓慢、放射学特征不特异以及组织病理学表现不明确,给外科医生带来了诊断挑战,这可能导致治疗和预后判断出现错误。在此,我们报告了在我们机构8年期间收治的4例PSP患者,并简要讨论相关文献。
