  • A hamartoma can be defined as a developmental malformation composed of tissue that normally constitute the organ in which the tumor occurs, but in which the tissue elements, although mature, are disorganized. Hamartoma is one of the most common benign lung tumors. Most of them are located in the lung parenchyme, but very rarely it can originate endobronchially. There is no case report of multiple endobronchial hamartomas in Korea. We report a case of multiple endobronchial hamartomas in a 63 year old woman with a review of the literatures.

  • Aspiration of foreign bodies into tracheobronchial tree is more common in children than in adults. Foreign bodies in airway commonly occur by accident, and in most cases they get removed without delay. Small foreign bodies that lodge in the peripheral airway are often asymptomatic initially and can result in respiratory symptoms several years later. Although foreign body aspiration is frequently suspected in children with acute or recurrent pulmonary symptoms, it is rarely considered in adults, unless a clear history of an aspiration event can be obtained. We have experienced and studied a case of occult aspiration of a shrimp which had been lodged for a long period.
