The aim ofthis study was to investigate the clinical, radiological and pathological dataof the patients with pulmonary hamartoma who underwent surgical treatment inour clinic.Methods: Hospitalrecords of 24 lung hamartoma patients given surgical treatment in our clinicsbetween January 2005 and December 2017 were investigated retrospectively. Inthis study, these cases were evaluated with respect to age, gender, clinical,histopathological, and radiological features, and surgical methods.Results: Therewere 24 patients with a mean age of 50.6 (23-66) years, consisting of 14 malesand 10 females, who underwent surgical resection for pulmonary hamartoma was.While 17 (42%) patients were asymptomatic, the rest complained of coughing,shortness of breath and repetitive lung infections. Hamartoma was localized inthe right lung in 16 (67%) of the cases; peripherally in 17 (71%), andcentrally in 7 (29%). All patients underwent wedge resection, 17 cases bythoracoscopy and 7 cases by thoracotomy. The mean tumor diameter assessedmacroscopically was 2.9 cm (1-4.5cm).Conclusion:Pulmonary hamartomas frequently present as peripheral solitary nodules. Givenits low morbidity and mortality, surgical resection is recommended fordefinitive diagnosis and treatment, the objective of the intervention beingtotal excision of the lesion while protecting the lung parenchyma.
