Abstract
|
|
|
Pleural mesotheliorna is usually divided into two forms of localized and diffuse type. Localized pleural fibrous mesotheliorna is uncommon mesodermal neopasm, which may occurs in both sexes and at the age of 50 years. This type of mesotheliorna is usually asymptomatic and detected on routine chest X-ray and made fibrous tissue and shows of collagen fibers microscopically. Most .localized fibrous mesotheliorna arises from the visceral pleura and is well encapsulated and pedunculated mass.
CT findings included well delineated, often lobulated, non-calcified soft tissue masses in close relation to a pleural space, associated crural tickening, and absence of chest wall invasion and a peripheral or fissure location.
Three cases of localized pleural fibrous mesotheliorna diagnosed by resectional surgery were reported with the review of literature.
