Abstract :
Sclerosing hemangioma of the lung is extremely rare. Herein, a case
of sclerosing hemangioma of the lung in a 44-year-old woman is
reported. On admission, the patient complained of pain in the left
lower neck and upper chest. Chest x-ray revealed a mass in lingular
lobe of the left lung. The patient underwent surgery and a mass was
removed through left posterolateral thoracotomy. Pathologic findings
confirmed sclerosing hemangioma. Sclerosing hemangioma of
the lung should be considered in asymptomatic patients or those with
symptoms in chest or lower neck
