[Endobronchial juvenile hemangioma in infancy--removal by main bronchus cuff resection. Case report]

The rare case of a 3.5 month-old infant diagnosed with a endobronchial haemangioma is presented and discussed against a background of reference literary material. A main-bronchus sleeve resection with end-to-end anastomosis was performed without reduction of lung parenchyma. No complications were documented during the period of observation. The results of repeated bronchoscopy showed the post-operative period to be of a non-problematic nature.
