Abstract
Solitary pulmonary nodules are rare in children. We report an eleven year-old girl evaluated for recurrent respiratory symptoms diagnosed with an intraparenchymal pulmonary hamartochondroma. Spiral computed tomography showed a pulmonary nodute in the middle lobe, 17Â mm in diameter, without any specifie features. In asymptomatic adult patients, guidelines for the management of solitary pulmonary nodules have been described. The management of solitary pulmonary nodules in pediatrie patients is discussed.
