Endobronchial hamartoma.

Pulmonary hamartoma is a benign lung neoplasm and it comprises 6% of solitary pulmonary nodules. Two clinical types have been defined according to its location: intraparenchymal (90%) and endobronchial (10%). We report on a case of endobronchial hamartoma resected with electrocautery by a flexible bronchoscope (FB).
