Abstract

A sixty-one-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with left sided chest pain, fever and chills. Chest X-ray showed opacity on left middle and lower zone abutting the left hemidiaphragm and left cardiac border. Body temperature was 38°C, physical examination of the chest revealed dullness and decreased breath sounds on left lower zone. Computed tomography of the thorax showed pleural effusion and associated atelectasis on left lung. Pleural effusion was an exudate. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy demonstrated a polypoid mass lesion totally obstructing the anteromedial segment of the left lower lobe. Pathologic diagnosis was hamartoma. It was removed with cryotherapy. Computed tomography of the thorax was normal after treatment. In conclusion, endobronchial hamartomas can cause pneumonia and atelectasis. Bronchoscopic treatment modalities can successfully be applied to these lesions.

Özet

Altmış bir yaşında erkek hasta bir aydır devam eden sol yan ağrısı, ateş ve üşüme-titreme yakınmalarıyla hastaneye başvurdu. Arkaön akciğer grafisinde sol akciğer orta ve alt zonda, kalp ve hemidiyafragma konturunu silen homojen yoğunluk artışı görüldü. Fizik bakıda ateş 38°C, sol alt zonda matite ve solunum seslerinde azalma saptandı. Bilgisayarlı toraks tomografisinde solda plevral sıvı ve komşuluğunda atelektazi saptandı. Torasentezle alınan plevral sıvı örneği eksuda niteliğindeydi. Fiberoptik bronkoskopide, sol alt lob anteromedial segment girişini tamamen kapatan polipoid kitle görüldü. Bronkoskopik biyopsi patolojisi hamartom olarak rapor edildi. Lezyon bronkoskopi aracılığıyla kriyoterapi uygulanarak çıkarıldı. Tedavi sonrası bilgisayarlı toraks tomografisinde patolojik bulgu saptanmadı. Sonuç olarak, endobronşiyal hamartomlar pnömoni ve atelektaziye neden olabilirler. Bu lezyonların tedavisinde bronkoskopik yöntemler başarıyla uygulanabilir.
