A rare case of adult pulmonary myofibromatosis.
Suspicious bilateral lung nodes were detected incidentally in a 49-year-old man who had undergone a homograft kidney transplant 6 years earlier. Two nodules were excised by a video-assisted left minithoracotomy. The morphological and immunohistochemical patterns were compatible with a diagnosis of pulmonary myofibromatosis.
