Most common symptom of bronchial adenoma is -
• Centrally located slow-growing endobronchial lesions that are generally carcinoid tumors (80%), adenocystic tumors (so called cylindromas, 10–15%), or mucoepidermoid tumors (2–3%).
• Mean age at presentation is 45 years (range 15–60).
Clinical Features
• MC symptom: Recurrent Hemoptysis
• History of chronic cough, intermittent hemoptysis, or repeated episodes of airway obstruction with atelectasis, or pneumonias with abscess formation due to endobronchial lesions obstructing the airway.
Diagnosis
• Usually visible at bronchoscopy but are highly vascular and may bleed profusely after a bronchoscopic biopsy.
Treatment
• They are largely curable by surgical resection (local excision), but they may recur locally or become invasive and metastasize.
• Five-year survival after resection is 95% for localized disease.
