abstract = {Background: Endobronchial lipomas (ELs) are extremely rare benign tumors that account for 0.1–0.4% of all bronchial tumors. Our study aims to better characterize these lesions based on their baseline demographic characteristics, size, location, association with smoking and establish a treatment modality of choice for such tumors.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective meta-analysis of 29 studies of EL reported from 1994 till present. These 29 studies yielded 36 patient encounters which were included in our study. Categorical outcomes were compared between study groups using chi-square test. P value },
