ABSTRACT
A 68-year-old man presented with partial atelectasis of the right middle lobe on chest X-ray. Computed tomography of the chest revealed a hypodense mass in the middle lobe. Bronchoscopy showed a round mass obstructing the right middle lobe bronchus, and a biopsy specimen revealed only chronic inflammation. The tumor was removed using rigid bronchoscopy, and a diagnosis of endobronchial lipoma was made. An endobronchial lipoma is a very rare benign tumor that may cause parenchymal lung damage due to bronchial obstruction and subsequent pneumonia. We report this case to emphasize the role of endoscopic treatment in the management of endobronchial lipoma.
