title: Localized fibrous pleural mesothelioma: CT findings.
abstract: The CT findings in 16 patients (20 examinations) with proven localized fibrous mesothelioma are described. These lesions proved to be large, uninvasive, sometimes heterogeneous, and enhancing solitary masses. These morphologic findings in an asymptomatic patient should be suggestive of this lesion.
