A 40 year old female was operated because of pulmonary leiomyomatous hamartoma. Despite repeated surgical resection therapy during the following years she developed recurrent multiple hamartoma. The indication for multiple surgery only included compression of central vessels or rapid growth of the hamartomas. The history of hysterectomy--as in our patient--is common for patients with multiple leiomyomatous pulmonary hamartoma. However, revision of the histological slides revealed no hint of uterine leiomyosarcoma. Therefore, a primary pulmonal (and recurrent) multiple hamartosis seems obvious.

D003074	Solitary Pulmonary Nodule	A single lung lesion that is characterized by a small round mass of tissue, usually less than 1 cm in diameter, and can be detected by chest radiography. A solitary pulmonary nodule can be associated with neoplasm, tuberculosis, cyst, or other anomalies in the lung, the CHEST WALL, or the PLEURA.
