Sclerosing hemangioma of the lung (SHL) is a rare benign neoplasm, usually found incidentally on a routine chest X‐ray. We present a case of SHL initially diagnosed by fine‐needle aspiration cytology. Cytomorphologic characteristics were confirmed by a cell block examination and immunohistochemical findings. The differential diagnoses of the fine‐needle aspiration are discussed.
