Almost all pulmonary hamartomas in Japan are intrapulmonary ; endobronchial hamartomas are rare. We report a patient who seemed to have an endobronchial hamartoma. An abnormal tumor shadow was observed on the chest X-ray film of a 51-year-old man with complaints of cough and bloody sputum. The tumor was diagnosed as a pulmonary hamartoma by transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB), and he was followed carefully. One month after TBLB, the tumor shadow was disappeared in both chest X-ray films and CT scans. We speculated that the abnormal shadow probably due to atelectasis caused by an endobronchial hamartoma that disappeared with the improvement of atelectasis. Because many hamartomas are intrapulmonary, when the tumor is diagnosed as a hamartoma by TBLB, we are likely to consider the entire tumor shadow a hamartoma. But it is also necessary to consider that the tumor shadow may be an atelectasis caused by a rare endobronchial hamartoma.
