CTICasesPleomorphic Adenoma of the Bronchus
Imaging findings
Radiographs show obstructive left lower lobe atelectasis, characterized by volume loss, medial rotation of the hilum, and an abnormal interface between the left hemidiaphragm and lung. CT confirms the collapse with bronchiectasis distended by secretions and an endoluminal lesion in the distal left main bronchus.
Key takeaways
This is a rare benign salivary gland-type tumor of the lung. The persistent findings over years in a younger patient point toward a benign endobronchial lesion.
