Abstract

A Rare Case of a Giant Congenital Pulmonary Hemangioma

Intrathoracic hemangiomas are extremely uncommon. These have previously been described as arising from the diaphragm, bronchus, trachea, and pericardium. They may also arise within the lung itself. We present a unique case of giant congenital pulmonary hemangioma causing respiratory distress in a newborn.
