Abstract
Endobronchial chondromatous hamartoma is a very rare benign lung tumor. We report a 68-year-old male patient who presented with a 2-year history of worsening shortness of breath and wheeze, misdiagnosed as having asthma. Computed tomographic scan showed a lesion in the right lower lobe bronchus, and bronchoscopy confirmed the presence of an endobronchial tumor, which was completely excised. Microscopic examination of the tumor showed features of an endobronchial chondromatous hamartoma. The patient made an excellent recovery.
