Abstract

|
|
Diffuse pulmonary ossification is a rare entity which was reported just a case in Korea, defined as "wide spread heterotropic bone formation within the lung parenchyme", and it¡¯s pathogenesis remains unclear. Generally, diffuse pulmonary ossification is diagnosed by autopsy because most of case is asymptomatic, and classified as either nodular and dendriform diagnosed pathologic examination. We reviewed a case of diffuse dendriform pulmonary ossification with spontaneous pneumothorax.
