Pathologica. 2009 Oct;101(5):180-2.

Abstract

Multiple hamartomas of the lung are uncommon. The few cases described to date are multiple parenchymal hamartomas or multiple endobronchial and parenchymal hamartomas. Herein, an original case is described which is characterized by the association between an endobronchial hamartoma and multiple, unusual, bronchial lesions of the peripheral lung.
