Bronchial carcinoid
-
Bronchial carcinoids are rare, slow-growing tumors of the lining of the airways (bronchi).
Carcinoid tumors (sometimes called neuroendocrine tumors) usually originate in hormone-producing cells that line the small intestine or other parts of the digestive tract, but they can also occur in the passageways in the lungs (bronchi) and in other organs. Bronchial carcinoid tumors are more likely to be malignant than carcinoid tumors in most other organs but are less likely to actively produce hormones (see Carcinoid Syndrome)
Bronchial carcinoids most often affect people ages 40 to 60 years.
