title: [Pulmonary fibroma].
abstract: The authors report the case of a pulmonary fibroma in a 66 year-old smoker. Intrapulmonary localization of solitary fibrous tumors is rare; these tumors are more frequently described in pleura. Histologically, the presence of spindle cells without nuclear atypy on a collagen background must evoke the diagnosis made difficult by the unusual localization.
