Endobronchial Lipoma: An Unusual Cause of Bronchial Obstruction
Endobronchial lipoma is a rare benign tumor. It is difficult to differentiate benign endobronchial lipoma from their malignant counterparts, as their symptoms and complications are almost alike. Here, we describe the clinical and radiological features of EL in two cases. Multislice CT (MSCT) may play an important role in the diagnosis for EL.
متن کاملBronchial lipoma: a case report and review of literature
Background: Outline: Conclusions: Bronchial lipoma is a very rare kind of benign tumor, which is more common in the elderly or obese men. Because it tends to block the airway, and has no specific clinical manifestations, so it may be easily misdiagnosed as lung cancer, lung inflammation, bronchial asthma, bronchiectasis, and other chronic airway diseases.

متن کاملEndobronchial lipoma: a rare cause of bronchial occlusion.
Benign neoplasms of the endobronchial tree are uncommon, and among them lipomas are the most uncommon. Endobronchial lipoma is histologically benign in character but may cause bronchial obstruction. We describe a 47-year-old woman with an endobronchial lipoma arising from the right main bronchus which was treated as asthma for 4 years.
متن کاملA case of endobronchial lipoma mimicking bronchial asthma
Endobronchial lipoma is a rare neoplasm of the tracheobronchial tree and it may cause irreversible pulmonary damage due to recurrent pneumonia. Rarely, it may mimic bronchial asthma. We present a 53-year-old woman with an endobronchial lipoma, which had been treated as a bronchial asthma for four years. She also had developed recurrent pneumonia three times.
متن کاملConchal Lipoma: A New Lipoma Site.
Lipomas, the most common benign tumors, rarely originate from the external ear. The first case of a lipoma originating from the concha of the auricle was reported and described in the current study. It was successfully removed under local anesthesia. This directs the attention of surgeons toward lipomas as a cause of conchal mass because the early diagnosis of a lipoma when it is still small al...
