抄録

Localized mesotheliomas of the pleura are relatively rare tumors. Their clinical characters are various and their malignant potential is still obscure. Frequently they are found without symptoms. A 53-year-old woman was pointed out as having an abnormal shadow on chest X-ray film, and introduced to our department. Preoperative possible diagnosis was benign localized mesothelioma of the parietal pleura or a neurogenic tumor, for which we planned a thoracoscopic resection. Unexpectedly, the tumor as found to originate from visceral pleura, and we performed thoracoscopic resection safely using ENDO-GIA. Pathological diagnosis was confirmed as benign mesothelioma of the pleura. This patient has been followed for 1 year and 5 months, so far. She is doing well but we must continue to monitor her condition carefully.
