abstract：:Sclerosing hemangioma of the lung is a rare benign neoplasm. The majority of the literature published on sclerosing hemangioma has focused on the histologic features, while only a few case reports have described the cytologic features. We report two additional cases of sclerosing hemangioma of the lung in which the cy...
