Article Synopsis
  • Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare, low-grade malignant tumor, primarily affecting extremities and occasionally seen in the pulmonary bronchus.
  • A 57-year-old female with a six-month cough was initially misdiagnosed with lung cancer based on imaging, but post-surgery pathology confirmed it as primary AFH of the bronchus.
  • PAFH has low incidence, non-specific clinical and imaging features, making pathological diagnosis crucial while PET/CT can assist in identifying this tumor.

Article Synopsis
  • Tooth aspiration can occur not only in patients with obvious risk factors like loose teeth or injuries, but also in those without any noticeable issues, often leading to delayed diagnosis.
  • Symptoms like chronic cough may be mistaken for other serious conditions, such as lung cancer, particularly in patients with pre-existing health problems like COPD.
  • This case study highlights the importance of recognizing and promptly addressing tooth aspiration to prevent severe complications, such as pneumonia and lung collapse, that can arise from prolonged airway obstruction.
