Abstract

A case of asymptomatic pulmonary leiomyoma diagnosed by routine chest radiography and treated by lobectomy is reported. There is no particular clinical pattern that distinguishes this lesion, and diagnostic maneuvers to identify its nature are generally unrewarding except for biopsy. Resection is the recommended treatment.
