[Papillary adenoma of the lung-two cases report]

Two rare cases of papillary adenoma of the lung were reported. Histologically, the tumor cells had noninfiltrating papillary growth, cuboidal to columnar with eosinophilc granular cytoplasm and without nuclear atypia. Ultrastructurally, the tumor cells had cytoplasmic osmiophilic lamellar bodies. This benign papillary adenoma of the lung has morphologic characteristics consistent with aveolar type II pneumocyte differentiation.
