Resumo: A fibrous histiocytoma is a benign tumoral lesion generally localized in the dermis or the superficial subcutaneous tissue. Fibrous histiocytoma of the lung is a very rare tumor, with only a few cases in the literature. We present a case of a 48-year-old man, asymptomatic, with a solitary pulmonary nodule with a high metabolism in PET/TC. Given the location and suspicious hypermetabolism in PET/TC, the patient underwent a wedge resection, with pathological examination concluding on a primary benign fibrous histiocytoma of the lung. Fibrous histiocytoma of the lung can be a difficult diagnosis, with a non-specific clinical history as well as radiologic findings. Hence, histopathological examination remains vital in establishing a definitive diagnosis. Prognosis is generally excellent, as these tumors usually have low recurrence rates after complete excision.

O histiocitoma fibroso do pulmão é um tumor muito raro, existindo poucos casos na literatura. Apresentamos o caso de um homem de 48 anos, assintomático, com um nódulo pulmonar solitário de metabolismo elevado na PET/TC. Dada a localização e hipermetabolismo suspeito no PET/TC, o doente foi submetido a ressecção em cunha, cujo exame anatomopatológico conclui ser um histiocitoma fibroso benigno primário do pulmão. O diagnóstico de histiocitoma fibroso do pulmão pode ser difícil, pois tem história clínica e achados radiológicos inespecíficos. Por conseguinte, o exame histopatológico continua a ser vital para estabelecer um diagnóstico definitivo. O prognóstico é geralmente excelente, uma vez que estes tumores costumam apresentar baixas taxas de recorrência após excisão completa.Grupo de Estudos de Cancro do Pulmão (GECP)2024-12-03info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.32932/https://doi.org/10.32932/Thoracic Cancer Journal; Vol. 1 No. 1 (2024); 12-15reponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPenghttps://thoracjournal.com/index.php/tcj/article/view/12https://thoracjournal.com/index.php/tcj/article/view/12/11Copyright (c) 2024 Author(s) (or their employer(s)) and THORAC 2024info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRosa, RitaMoura, CecíliaBravio, IvanCabrera, RafaelRolim, RicardoAlmodovar, Maria Teresa2025-01-22T08:57:01Zoai:ojs.thoracjournal.com:article/12Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T19:40:58.473498Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
