Abstract
|
|
|
The lipoid granuloma of the lung is not common in children, and there has been no report about childhood lipoid granuloma in Korea. We have found recently a case of lipoid granulima arising in 13 year old boy.
The patient was good in general condition and had no symptoms. A mass shadow on chest X-ray was found incidentally during follow up checking of pulmonary tuberculosis.
The mass was located in left upper lung field along the mediastinum. Chest X-ray, tomogram and othertests revealed mediastinal tumor or the granuloma and thoracotomy was performed.
The lesion was located in lung parenchym and pathologic finding was reported as lipoid granuloma.
So we have rechecked detail history and examination retrospectively, but exact causative materials were not found.
