We report the fine needle aspiration cytology of a case of sclerosing hemangioma of the lung. This rare and benign neoplasm characteristically exhibits a variety of histologic patterns in a particular tumor--e.g., angiomatous, solid, papillary and sclerotic. There are few descriptions in the cytologic literature, and all are of the angiomatous pattern. Our case showed a papillary/sclerotic pattern with no angiomatous area. The cytologic findings consisted of spindle cells admixed with sheets of cuboidal cells, precisely reflecting the histologic pattern. |
