CTICasesMultiple Pulmonary Hemangiomas

Imaging findings
CT studies obtained four and two years apart showed multiple pulmonary nodules. The nodules were scattered throughout the lungs and mostly unchanged, though one in the right middle lobe had increased in size.
Key takeaways
Due to the increasing size of one nodule, the patient underwent excision. Pathology revealed multiple hemangiomas, not sclerosing hemangiomas or hemangioendotheliomas, as confirmed by the pathologist after specific inquiry. The case highlights a rare presentation of multiple pulmonary hemangiomas. Special stains were being performed to further characterize them.
