title: [A case of multiple cavernous hemangiomas of the lung].
abstract: A case of multiple cavernous hemangiomas of the lung is presented. A 61-year-old woman was suffering from mitral stenosis and insufficiency. On the chest roentgenogram, multiple tumor shadows were revealed at all the lobes of the lung. She had been followed up for about 10 years under the diagnosis of the metastatic carcinoma of the lung. But no tumor lesion had been found at any other organs. Throughout this period, the tumor shadows had not changed in size or number. She died of congestive heart failure, and an autopsy was performed. Histologically, the tumors were diagnosed as cavernous hemangiomas and differentiated from arteriovenous fistula or sclerosing hemangioma.
