We present a case of a large pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma with metastases to multiple lymph nodal stations and suspected contralateral pulmonary metastasis. Four cases (including the present) have been reported to have lymph node metastasis, and all had large tumors exceeding 3.5 cm in diameter. Accordingly, resection of sclerosing hemangioma is advisable while the tumor is small. Even in cases with a large sclerosing hemangioma, lymph node metastasis may be uncommon. However lymph node dissection may be necessary to detect lymph node metastasis in selected cases.
