Abstract
Pleural mesothelioma is a rare neoplasm that is usually highly malignant, but benign mesotheliomas do occur; approximately 400 cases are described in the literature. We report the case of a young woman with a massive benign mesothelioma that filled the entire left hemithorax but was successfully resected with full reexpansion of the lung.Entities:
