Article information

Se presentan dos casos de hemangiopericitoma pulmonar. En ambos casos la forma de presentación ha sido como nodulo pulmonar solitario.

Los hemangiopericitomas son tumores vasculares originados en el pericito. Pueden presentarse en cualquier zona del organismo. En la literatura mundial están descritos un centenar de casos primitivos pulmonares. La evolución de la lesión es imprevisible, no existe correlación estricta entre los hallazgos anatomo-patológicos y la evolución maligna o benigna de la enfermedad. El tratamiento de elección es la cirugía. La radioterapia y quimioterapia consiguen en algunos casos remisiones a largo plazo.

We report two cases of pulmonary hemangiopericytoma in which the appearance of a solitary pulmonary nodule was the fírst manifestation of the illness. Hemangiopericytomas are vascular tumors originated in the pericyte. They can appear at any part of the organism. Nearly 100 cases are reported in the world literature affecting the lung. The clinical course is unpredictable and there is no correlation between the anatomo-pathological findings and the benign or malign course of the illness. The elective treatment is surgery. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy may achieve in some cases long-term remisions.
