Abstract

Pulmonary sclerosing pneumocytoma (PSP) is a rare pulmonary tumor that behaves in a benign fashion and has excellent prognosis.[1] The tumor was historically termed as sclerosing hemangioma by Liebow and Hubbell in 1956.[2] The incidence peaks in sixth decade with a striking predilection for females (F:M = 5:1).[3] [4] Although it presents as a well-circumscribed solid nodular mass, the radiological features are nonspecific and can be misconstrued as malignant especially in large tumors.[5] Frozen sections and trucut biopsy interpretation of such tumors may also be misleading.
