Very well defined pulmonary parenchymal focal lesion is seen within upper lobe of the right lung. It has dense central calcification with peripheral fat attenuation.The possibility of pulmonary hamartoma is suggested.
Case Discussion
In view of the described radiologic findings and by comparing to previous exams that show no appreciable changes since two years the diagnostic possibility of pulmonary hamartoma is considered.
