Incidental Benign Giant Pulmonary Chondroid Hamartoma

Hamartomas constitute a small portion of all pulmonary neoplasms. Here we present a case which was found incidentally on CT scan of the abdomen, a rare case of a giant pulmonary hamartoma (PH) was identified in the lower lobe of the left lung. The patient underwent a left exploratory thoracotomy and left lower lobectomy and the lesion was removed and identified as a chondroid hamartoma. The patient recovered successfully and obtained a repeated CT scan in 3 months, which showed no residual disease or recurrence.
