Abstract

Pulmonary carcinoids are uncommon malignant neoplasms, believed to derive from specialized neuroendocrine cells known as Kulchitsky cells. We evaluated a 69-year-old female presenting symptoms consistent with carcinoid syndrome, such as intermittent flushing and diarrhoea, along with complaints of shortness of breath and cough. Imaging revealed bilateral lung nodules, confirmed by biopsy to be carcinoid tumours. The treatment of choice for carcinoid tumours is complete surgical resection. Nonetheless, individualized management plans are crafted based on the tumour's location and the patient's respiratory function as these present challenges to anatomical resection of tumours.

通过机器人导航支气管镜诊断出同步双侧典型肺类癌:一个独特的病例。
肺类癌是一种不常见的恶性肿瘤,据信来源于被称为库尔奇茨基细胞的特化神经内分泌细胞。我们对一名 69 岁的女性进行了评估,她的症状与类癌综合征一致,如间歇性潮红和腹泻,同时还伴有气短和咳嗽。影像学检查发现双侧肺部结节,活检证实为类癌。类癌的首选治疗方法是完全手术切除。然而,由于肿瘤的位置和患者的呼吸功能给肿瘤的解剖切除带来了挑战,因此需要根据肿瘤的位置和患者的呼吸功能制定个性化的治疗方案。
