Primary Pulmonary Angiosarcoma Presenting as Enbodronchial Stenosis: One Case Report / 대한흉부외과학회지

ABSTRACT

Primary pulmonary angiosarcomas are extremely rare tumors. The diagnosis is often delayed due to nonspecific symptoms, mimicking pulmonary embolism and require careful clinical evaluation to exclude metastasis from the heart, pericardium, and distant extrathoracic sites. Most diagnosis are made postmortem. We report a case of primary pulmonary angiosarcoma histopathologically confirmed postoperatively, which was clinically suspected endobronchial carcinoma with endobronchial obstruction with relavant literature review.
