Abstract

Pulmonary granular cell tumors are rare lesions, with approximately 100 reported cases in the literature. We present a case of pulmonary granular cell tumor. A 21-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with a long history of chronic coughing. The comput- ed tomography scan of the thorax showed an infil- trate in the anterior segment of the right lower lobe. The flexible bronchoscopy revealed infiltration at the entrance of the right lower lobe bronchus. The bron- choscopic biopsy revealed the diagnosis of granular cell tumor. She underwent a right lower lobectomy. Forty-two months after surgery, the patient remains disease-free and there has been no recurrence of the tumor.

Özet

Pulmoner granüler hücreli tümörler, literatürde yayın- lanmış yaklaşık 100 olgu ile nadir lezyonlardır. Bir pulmoner granüler hücreli tümör olgusunu sunuyoruz. Yirmi bir yaşında kadın hasta uzun süredir devam eden kronik öksürük yakınması ile hastanemize baş- vurdu. Bilgisayarlı toraks tomografisi sağ alt lobda infiltrasyon gösteriyordu. Fiberoptik bronkoskopide sağ alt lob girişinde infiltrasyon saptandı. Bronkosko- pik biyopsi ile granüler hücreli tümör tanısı elde edil- di. Hastaya sağ alt lobektomi yapıldı. Ameliyattan 42 ay sonra yapılan kontrolde rekürrens yoktu.
