  • Title: The dispersed neuroendocrine system, its bronchopulmonary elements, and neuroendocrine tumors presumed to be derived from them: myths, mistaken notions, and misunderstandings.
    Author: Warren WH, Hammar SP.
    Journal: Semin Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2006; 18(3):178-82. PubMed ID: 17185176.
    Abstract:
    The increasing recognition of the dispersed neuroendocrine system and its importance in human physiology has impacted our understanding of physiology, pathophysiology, and histopathology. It has been the subject of a great deal of controversy and debate, giving rise to certain misunderstandings. This article attempts to put some of these issues in perspective, especially as they relate to the bronchopulmonary tree.
