Case report: Lobular capillary hemangioma of the right main bronchus: a rare case with calcified and cystic lymph nodes
Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH), typically a benign vasoproliferative lesion of the skin or mucosal surfaces, is exceptionally rare in the trachea. Now, we present the second reported case of LCH found in the right intermediate bronchus, characterized by calcification within the lesion and cystic changes. These distinctive features should alert clinicians to consider LCH in the differential diagnosis of other benign vascular tumors and mediastinal lymphadenopathy, particularly when calcified and cystic lesions are observed.
