Multiple pulmonary leiomyomatous hamartomas in women
RM Becker, J Viloria and C Chiu
A rare case of multiple pulmonary leiomyomatous hamartomas is described and
seven previously reported cases are reviewed. The pathological and clinical
features of this lesion, which is benign and occurs in middle- aged women,
are unique; a conservative approach following the establishment of
diagnosis is recommended.
