Among these hamartomas are the most common with an incidence between and . In relation to the localization hamartomas are divided into intraparenchymal and endobronchial. Clinical manifestation of an endobronchial hamartoma EH results from tracheobronchial obstruction or bleeding. Usually EH localizes in large diameter bronchus. Endoscopic removal is usually recommended. Bronchotomy or parenchimal resection through thoracotomy should be reserved only for cases where the hamatoma cannot be approached through endoscopy or when irreversible lung functional impairment occurred after prolonged airflow obstruction. Generally when endoscopic approach is used this is through rigid bronchoscopy laser photocoagulation or mechanical resection. Here we present a giant EH occasionally diagnosed and treated by fiberoptic bronchoscopy electrosurgical snaring.
