초록

In 1904, Albrecht first used the term "hamartoma" to refer to a congenital abnormal mixing of the normal components of an organ and is applied also to tumors found in many organs other than the lung. Though the term "hamartoma" of the lung have been used with the connection to the presence of cartilage, tumors that do not contain cartilagenous compont is also considered hamartoma. The authors experienced one case of endobronchial hamartoma. The patient, a 42-year-old woman, a teacher in a primary school, was admitted to our hospital with frequent attacks of hemoptysis. Bronchogram on the left disclosed abrupt blocking of bronchial filling at the bifurcation between postero-basal and lateral basal segmental bronchial substantiating a mass in the bronchial lumen. Left lower lobectomy was performed. The answer of pathology was benign endobronchial hamartoma. Postoperative course was uneventful. Discharged on 19th postoperative day.
