Multiple calcifying fibrous pseudotumors of the pleura: ultrastructural analysis provides insight on mechanism of dissemination.

We present a 59-year-old male with multiple CFP of the pleura. Reactive-appearing adhesions spanning the pleural surfaces were present, and by electron microscopy, were involved by tumor. We suggest this is the likely mode of dissemination across the pleural surfaces.
