Abstract

Giant intrathoracic pleural lipomas are rare benign tumors. We report a case of giant intrathoracic lipoma in a 19 years old male student that occupied almost entire left hemithorax. The tumor was completely excised by left thoracotomy. The complete histopathological investigation showed pleural lipoma.
