J Bronchology Interv Pulmonol. 2009 Oct;16(4):298-300. doi: 10.1097/LBR.0b013e3181bf0edc.

Abstract

Endobronchial hamartoma is an unusual clinical entity and infrequently causes hemoptysis. This brief report extends the sparse available experience with endobronchial hamartoma causing hemoptysis by presenting, to our knowledge, only the third such patient reported to have massive hemoptysis complicating an endobronchial hamartoma.
