PMCID: PMC470621  PMID: 882954

Abstract

Three cases are reported--one endobronchial hamartoma, one endobronchial hamartoma accompanied by a similar intrapulmonary lesion, and one multiple hamartoma. These cases typify the clinical presentation and illustrate some of the difficulties in diagnosis and management. The published cases are reviewed.
