ABSTRACT
Leiomyoma of the bronchus is a very rare, benign tumor of the lung. We herein report a case of endobronchial leiomyoma which was treated by sleeve bronchoplasty without resection of the lung and without any complications. A 35-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of stridor. Bronchoscopy revealed a round, hypervascular and smooth tumor nearly obstructing the left main bronchus at 1.5 cm distal portion from the carina. Biopsy was not performed for fear of massive hemorrhage. A sleeve resection of left main bronchus including the tumor and end-to-end anastomosis were performed. The histologic diagnosis was leiomyoma. The early diagnosis and appropriate surgical treatment to preserve the pulmonary function are important points of consideration.
