摘要
Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH) is a rare lung disease. This report describes the case of a 54-year-old female who underwent radical resection for bilateral multiple PEH nodules. Bilateral multiple nodular shadows were seen on the patient’s chest X-rays during an annual health check. PEH was diagnosed based on a video-assisted thoracoscopic biopsy specimen. Thirty-two pulmonary nodules were resected through the bilateral transverse thoracosternotomy. The patient’s postoperative recovery was uneventful, and she remains free of PEH recurrence 11 years after the surgery.
