    Abstract:
    Data (radiological, endoscopic, histological, clinical and surgical) are presented on 21 subjects with pulmonary carcinoid tumour encountered in the Turin University Chest Surgery Centre in 1980-1985. All patients were subjected to fibrobronchoscopy which revealed the tumour in 18 cases (14 were given multiple biopsies and in 4 cases samples could not be taken due to the patient's intolerance of the endoscopic manoeuvre). No appreciable bleeding occurred after any biopsy. Surgery was performed on all 21 patients (2 pneumonectomies, 7 bilobectomies, 12 lobectomies). There was 85.71% correspondence between pre and post-operative histological diagnosis.
