    Abstract:
    A 35-year-old man had chronic cough and was treated as asthma at local doctor. Since the symptoms was not improved, chest computed tomography( CT) was performed and an approximately 5 mm nodule with calcification was found in the left main bronchi. He was referred to our hospital for treatment. Bronchoscopic examination revealed a polypoid lesion in the membranous part of the left main bronchus. Since transbronchial biopsy revealed no malignant findings, bronchoscopic resection using microwave tissue coagulation and electrosurgical snaring was performed safely under the general anesthesia. The tumor was histologically diagnosed as endobronchial hamartoma.
