Abstract

Benign polypoid lesions are an uncommon finding on bronchoscopic examination. The histopathologic fibroepithelial subtype is very rare in this location. In this report, we describe a 77-year-old man diagnosed with a fibroepithelial polyp located at the bifurcation of the left main bronchus; this was completely removed using flexible bronchoscope.
