“…Among symptomatic patients, hemoptysis, chest pain, and cough are the most common symptoms (2,9,13,14). The typical radiological finding of SH is a peripheral, solitary, well-circumscribed, round or oval solid nodule or mass (2,4,5). Multiple lesions occur in 4% of all cases (7,8).…”

“…SH can occur at any age, although it is predominant in middle-aged females (3). Most patients remain asymptomatic, and the tumor is usually detected incidentally during routine radiological examinations for other reasons (4,5). Generally, SH presents as a peripheral, solitary, well-circumscribed, round or oval nodule or mass (2,4,5).…”

Objective: We aimed to evaluate clinical manifestations, radiological findings, treatment, and outcomes of pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (SH). Methods:We retrospectively reviewed eight cases of pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma diagnosed at our institution from January 2006 to April 2014. Their demografic findings, symptoms, radiological appearences, diagnostic methods, treatments and surveys were recorded.Results: There were four female and four male patients. The age at the time of diagnosis ranged from 23 to 79 years, with a mean age of 56.1 years. Two patients were asymptomatic. Among six symptomatic patients, hemoptysis was the most frequent symptom. The radiological feature was a solitary nodule or mass in seven cases. In the remaining case, there were multiple distinct masses and nodules in bilateral lung fields. The tumor involved lung parenchyma in seven cases and endobronchially located in the remaining patient. Seven patients with parenchymal location underwent surgery. Wedge resection was the most common surgical procedure. Diagnosis of SH was established by surgical biopsy in seven cases and by bronchoscopic biopsy in one case. The most common histological pattern was solid pattern. During the follow-up ranging from 2 months to 76 months, seven cases who underwent surgery had an excellent prognosis with no evidence of recurrence. The patient with multiple lesions died one month after diagnosis. Conclusion:SH of the lung is a rare tumor. Surgical resection usually requires for both diagnosis and treatment of this tumor. The patients had excellent prognosis with no evidence of recurrence following surgery.

RESUMENEl objetivo de este artículo es presentar un caso de raro de tumor pulmonar benigno, hemangioma esclerosante (neumocitoma), en una mujer de 24 años, asintomática, con hallazgo radiológico incidental. Se describen las características clínicas, imagenológicos y anátomo-patológicos de la entidad, con una breve revisión bibliográfica.Palabras clave: Pulmón, hemangioma, esclerosante, neumocitoma.

“…The origin of PSH has remained controversial despite extensive studies by many investigators. PSH can occur in any individual in the age group of 4 to 70 years [8], [9]. PSH is predominant in 50 year olds, with a female to male ratio of 5:1 in this patient group [10].…”

Pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (PSH) is a rare benign tumor of the lungs. These tumors are composed of cuboidal surface cells and polygonal stromal cells and show four histological manifestations: hemorrhagic, papillary, solid, and sclerotic. PSH predominantly affects asymptomatic middle-aged women. The tumor often occurs at the intralobar site, and less commonly in the bronchus and mediastinum. PSH is easy to be misdiagnosed preoperatively. In this study, we present in detail the treatment procedures followed for two atypical cases of PSH. Case 1 was a 62-year-old woman bearing a tumor for 15 years. The tumor lesion was found to be located in the oblique fissure of the left lung. PSH was confirmed by surgical resection and postoperative pathological diagnosis. There was no sign of recurrence and metastasis 1.5 years after surgery. Case 2 was a 54-year-old woman diagnosed with bilateral multiple nodules by physical examination. This patient was diagnosed with definite PSH through computed tomography-guided percutaneous lung biopsy. Surgical resection was not performed. The patient also showed no sign of enlarged tumor and metastasis after 2 years of follow-up. Although PSH can be cured by surgical resection, the findings in our cases indicate that surgical resection need not be considered the preferred course of treatment. If PSH is diagnosed before surgery, the patients may survive while bearing the tumor.
