Abstract
Pleomorphic adenoma, a common salivary gland tumor of the head and neck is a rare occurrence in the lung. We report a case of Primary pulmonary pleomorphic adenoma and its immunohistochemical features. The associated features of Cryptogenic organising pneumonia and post obstructive bronchiectasis are additional features which make the case more interesting. Awareness of this rare entity can prevent clinical misdiagnosis.
