Clinico-pathological review of ciliated muconodular papillary tumour of lung
Abstract
Pulmonary tumours with cilia formation are rare and are usually recognized as benign. Ciliated muconodular papillary tumour (CMPT) of lung is a rare entity recently described in 2002. It is characterized by the presence of papillary tumour consisting of ciliated columnar, goblet, and basal cells. Although most of its features are of a benign tumour, some histological characteristics do suggest low-grade malignancy. We describe a case of CPMT in a 36 year old male.
