Endobronchial Carcinoid

Imaging findings

Chest radiograph shows subsegmental right lower lobe atelectasis. CT and bronchoscopy demonstrate a small, well-defined endobronchial mass in a right lower lobe segment with associated branching mucus plugging (iceberg sign/bronchocele). Biopsy confirmed carcinoid tumor.

Key takeaways

Bronchial carcinoids are low-grade neuroendocrine tumors that frequently arise inside the bronchial lumen, presenting with post-obstructive atelectasis, recurrent pneumonia, or mucoid impaction.
