Primary Pulmonary Myxoma

We report a case of a primary pulmonary myxoma. The patient was a 69-year-old previously healthy human. Computed tomographic scan demonstrated a well-circumscribed tumor with a diameter of approximately 13 mm in the right upper lobe. We performed a right upper lobectomy under video-assisted thoracoscopy. Microscopic examination of the tumor disclosed elongated and stellate cells in a myxoid stroma, typical of myxoma.
