Pulmonary hemangiopericytoma

M Ouimette, R E Schwab

    Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography
    |December 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Computed tomography (CT) can identify primary pulmonary hemangiopericytoma, a rare lung tumor. CT imaging helps surgeons determine the tumor's location and extent for effective treatment planning.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Thoracic Surgery
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Primary pulmonary hemangiopericytoma is a rare tumor.
    • Accurate pre-operative imaging is crucial for surgical planning.

    Observation:

    • A 27-year-old woman presented with a primary pulmonary hemangiopericytoma.
    • Computed tomography (CT) revealed the tumor originating from the lung parenchyma.
    • The tumor was closely associated with hilar structures, with no mediastinal involvement.

    Findings:

    • CT findings correlated well with surgical and pathological diagnoses.
    • Computed tomography effectively delineated the tumor's extent and location.
    • The imaging suggested the possibility of pulmonary hemangiopericytoma.

    Implications:

    • CT imaging can aid in the pre-operative diagnosis of pulmonary hemangiopericytoma.
    • Accurate CT evaluation assists surgeons in planning tumor resection.
    • This case highlights the utility of CT in managing rare thoracic neoplasms.
