Abstract:
The endobronchial hamartochondroma is a very rare, slowly growing benign tumor. We report a case of hamartochondroma conglomerate located in the left main bronchus. The resection via rigid endoscopy with ND-YAG laser and forceps was successful, and no complications occured. The rigid endoscopy with laser-application in such case is a safe and effective procedure in endobronchial hamartochondroma.
