EH often presents with non\u2010specific symptoms and may mimic malignancy or chronic infections such as tuberculosis, leading to delayed diagnosis or inappropriate treatment. We report here a case of a 60\u2010year\u2010old man who presented with 6\u2009months of progressive dyspnoea and productive cough, and 2\u2009months of low\u2010grade fever. Flexible bronchoscopy showed an endobronchial mass, and forceps biopsies performed twice were reported as granulomatous inflammation. He received antitubercular treatment based on presumptive diagnosis of endobronchial tuberculosis. However, there was no clinical and radiological improvement despite 7\u2009months of treatment. We performed rigid bronchoscopy and removed the endobronchial tumour using an electrocautery snare and cryoextraction. The excisional biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of EH. This case highlights the limitations of small biopsy specimens in diagnosing hamartoma and reemphasises the role of advanced pulmonary interventions, such as electrocautery snare and cryotherapy, as diagnostic\u2010cum\u2010therapeutic tools in such lesions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/rcr2.70722","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,18]],"date-time":"2026-08-18T04:39:38Z","timestamp":1787027978000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Endobronchial Hamartoma Masquerading as Endobronchial Tuberculosis\u2014A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2743-1068","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Manoj Kumar","family":"Panigrahi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonary Medicine &amp; Critical Care All India Institute of Medical Sciences  Bhubaneswar Odisha India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6400-345X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aneri","family":"Parekh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonary Medicine &amp; Critical Care All India Institute of Medical Sciences  Bhubaneswar Odisha India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shameema","family":"Farween","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology &amp; Laboratory Medicine All India Institute of Medical Sciences  Bhubaneswar Odisha India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siddarth","family":"Singh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonary Medicine &amp; Critical Care All India Institute of Medical Sciences  Bhubaneswar Odisha India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Supantha","family":"De","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pulmonary Medicine &amp; Critical Care All India Institute of Medical Sciences  Bhubaneswar Odisha India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1547-8595","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mukund","family":"Sable","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology &amp; Laboratory Medicine All India Institute of Medical Sciences  Bhubaneswar Odisha India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/LBR.0000000000000460"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fsurg.2021.644656"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/LBR.0b013e318232ff0e"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.rmcr.2025.102210"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr\u20102020\u2010235316"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/icvts\/ivw443"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5578\/tt.67434"}],"container-title":["Respirology Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/rcr2.70722","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/rcr2.70722","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/rcr2.70722","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,27]],"date-time":"2026-08-27T03:24:04Z","timestamp":1787801044000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/rcr2.70722"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,8]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"8","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/rcr2.70722"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/rcr2.70722","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2051-3380","2051-3380"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2051-3380","type":"print"},{"value":"2051-3380","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,8]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2026-06-05","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-08-03","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-08-17","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e70722"}}
