  • Title: Bronchial carcinoid presenting with abdominal pain.
    Author: Ameer F, Zubairi AB, Fawad MU, Ahsan H, Yaqoob N.
    Journal: J Coll Physicians Surg Pak; 2005 Aug; 15(8):498-9. PubMed ID: 16202364.
    Abstract:
    Bronchial carcinoid tumors are very rare pulmonary neoplasms. They usually present with pulmonary symptoms or paraneoplastic syndromes. Typical (well-differentiated) tumors are usually indolent with survival exceeding 90% after resection. Atypical carcinoids have a worse prognosis. They are much more likely to recur locally or to have distant metastases. This case report describes a patient who presented with abdominal pain and hepatic lesions who was subsequently diagnosed to have bronchial carcinoid.
