Abstract

We describe the case of a 4-years-old patient, entering the Respiratory Service of the Pediatric Hospital “Eliseo Noel Caamaño”, in Matanzas, Cuba, with relapsing respiratory symptoms. The diagnosis was a No-complicated Low Acute Respiratory Infection: Left Base Pneumonia. A sample was taken for bacteriological studies; thoracic X-ray and bronchography were made, and also a histopathologic study through a bronchoscopy arriving to the conclusion the patient presented a Bronchial Leiomyoma.
