Solitary Pulmonary Fibroleiomyomatous Hamartoma on 18F-FDG PET/CT

Solitary pulmonary fibroleiomyomatous hamartoma is a very rare benign tumor. A 57-year-old man presented with dry cough over 1 month. A CT showed an irregular nodule in the left upper lobe of the lung. A malignant tumor was suspected, and further investigation with 18 F-FDG PET/CT showed the pulmonary nodule with slightly increased FDG uptake. Thoracoscopic resection was performed. Subsequent histopathological and immunohistochemical tests confirmed the diagnosis of fibroleiomyomatous hamartoma.
