Sclerosing hemangioma is unusual pulmonary tumor. During a routine care evaluation, an abnormal shadow was detected in the chest X-ray films of a 38-year-old woman. Chest computed tomography scanning showed a nodule, 3.9 cm in diameter, in the left S6 pulmonary segment. Bronchoscopy performed before the operation could not establish the diagnosis. Since low-grade malignant tumor wassuggested by frozen section analysis at surgery, segmentectomy of left S6 and sampling of interlober lymph node were performed. The tumor was diagnosed as a plmonary sclerosing hemangioma. Metastatic leasion in the interlober lymph node was pathologically confirmed.

Pulmonary sclerosing pneumocytoma is a rare benign neoplasm typically seen in middle-aged women. The exact preoperative diagnosis is quite challenging considering its nonspecific clinical and radiologic features along with complex histology. Moreover, obtaining an exact histopathological diagnosis can be difficult especially with the small biopsy specimens.

Background: Intranodal hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors of the lymph nodes, often misdiagnosed as malignant lymphadenopathies due to their clinical and radiological features. This case report and systematic review aim to elucidate the epidemiology, clinical profile, and therapeutic interventions for intranodal hemangioma, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and management.
Methods: A systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.

Canine cutaneous histiocytoma (CCH) is a tumor that originates from dermal Langerhans cells and affects particularly young dogs. The common spontaneous regression of CCH makes it an interesting model in comparative oncology research. Previous studies have indicated that anti-tumor immune responses may be involved, but details remain speculative to date.
