肺结节性骨化:一种罕见的尸检偶然发现

阅读:2

Abstract

Pulmonary ossification is also known as metaplastic bone formation. It is a rare and incidental post-mortem finding. Dendriform and nodular pulmonary ossification are the two forms which are recognized, and they are usually associated with systemic or primary lung pathology. Its awareness is necessary to correctly diagnose and differentiate them from other lung pathologies. Histopathology aids in the accurate diagnosis of this dormant entity. Herein, we present an autopsy case of a 37-year-old male with pulmonary ossification discovered incidentally during an autopsy.
