Abstract:
Benign pulmonary neoplasms are relatively uncommon. The symptoms vary, depending on the location of the tumor. Specific diagnosis can be a time-consuming process and requires an orderly plan. Polytomography or computed tomographic scan, bronchoscopy, percutaneous biopsy or thoracotomy may be required. Tissue diagnosis must be sought. Surgical resection is the usual treatment. The family physician should act as coordinator, since multiple consultations may be necessary.
