The bronchial carcinoid adenoma. A clinical, radiological and anatomopathological study of 25 operated patients.

SummaryThe goal of this retrospective study is to compare the results of 25 operated cases of bronchial carcinoid adenoma with those published in the literature. If the epidemiological, clinical, laboratory and follow-up results are comparable, our study identifies two unusual aspects of the radiological findings (volume doubling time, cupula sign).In addition, our results confirm the difficulty of a pre-operative anatomopathological diagnosis of the carcinoid tumour, as well as the mediocre contribution of the percutaneous needle aspiration biopsy in peripheral cases.In view of the relatively high number of falsepositive diagnoses of anaplastic small-cell carcinoma in our series, the possibility of an exploratory thoracotomy must be considered.
