A 64 year old man was admitted to hospital due to dyspnoea and stridor. A peduncular polyp of the carina was found at bronchoscopy. Histological examination of the tumour after resection with endoscopic electronsurgery revealed malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of myxoid type. With endoscopic neodymiumyttrium aluminium garnet (Nd-YAG) laser surgery, residual tumour was eliminated. To our knowledge this is the first case with malignant fibrous histiocytoma appearing as a polyp of the carina.

We report a case of an endobronchial lipoma on a 63 year-old woman, treated surgically. A literature review allows us to show the importance of fiberoptic bronchoscopy and computerized tomography in the diagnosis of this kind of benign tumors. The different aspects of treatment with recent progress represented by endoscopic resection are studied.
