title: [Benign pleural mesothelioma. Report of 2 cases].
abstract: We report two cases of benign pleura mesothelioma. We compare our pre-, intra- and postoperative findings with other reports in the literature. This tumor is rare. The patients have few symptoms. Large tumors may cause hypoglycemia. The treatment of choice is complete resection of the tumor. The prognosis is good.
