Imaging findings
CT chest in a child shows an avidly enhancing endobronchial mass in the right upper lobe bronchus. The child underwent a successful sleeve lobectomy.
Key takeaways
Pulmonary carcinoid tumors are low-grade malignant neuroendocrine tumors that commonly present as well-circumscribed, highly vascular endobronchial masses. In children, they are a common cause of recurrent pneumonia or atelectasis, and are treated with parenchyma-sparing sleeve resections.
