Zusammenfassung

Hamartome sind die häufigsten gutartigen Tumoren der Lunge. Üblicherweise handelt es sich um solitäre intraparenchymatöse Läsionen von einigen wenigen Zentimetern Durchmesser, die als Zufallsbefund radiologisch entdeckt werden. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird der Fall eines riesigen Hamartochondroms der Lunge von 29-cm-Durchmesser vorgestellt, das prä- und intraoperativ als eine extrapulmonale Neoplasie imponierte. Der Nachweis kleinerer mesenchymaler neoplastischer Läsionen in Lunge und in Pleura stellt eine weitere Besonderheit der Kasuistik dar.

Abstract

Hamartomas are the most common benign tumors of the lungs and usually present as solitary intraparenchymal lesions a few centimeters in diameter which are detected radiologically as an incidental finding. This article reports on a case of a giant pulmonary hamartochondroma 29 cm in diameter, which impressed preoperatively and intraoperatively as an extrapulmonary neoplasm. The detection of smaller mesenchymal neoplastic lesions in the lungs and pleura is a further special feature of this case.
