[Benign pulmonary metastases from a leiomyoma]. / Métastases pulmonaires bénignes d'un léiomyome.

INTRODUCTION: Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (BML) is a rare cause of pulmonary nodules. They can occur in women of reproductive age who have undergone hysterectomy for uterine leiomyoma. OBSERVATION: We report the case of a 46-year-old women, who was incidentally found to have bilateral pulmonary cavitating nodules. Pathology exam was consistent with BML. CONCLUSION: Although BML is a rare cause of pulmonary nodules, it should be considered as one of the possibilities especially in young women with a history of hysterectomy for leiomyoma.
