摘要
Calcifying fibrous tumors are uncommon lesions. These lesions are made up of hyalinized collagenous fibrotic tissues interspersed with lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates and extensive dystrophic calcifications mimicking psammomatous features. Calcifying tumor of pleura is rarely presented. Multiple calcifying tumor of pleuras have been reported extremely seldom. Forty-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with complaints of dyspnea. Because of the multiple soft tissue formations at the pleural region with the largest diameter of 2 cm on thorax computed tomography, surgical intervention was planed. Frozen sections of pleural biopsies that were taken during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery were reported as calcifying fibrous tumor. Because of the presence of multiple lesions and pleural adhesions, curative pleural decortication was performed. This case is presented with extremely rare entity of multiple calcifying tumor of plevras.
