Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to look at the clinical behaviour of bronchial carcinoids and clarify a surgical approach. Over 30 years 61 patients with a final histological diagnosis of carcinoid tumours were assessed for surgery. All patients were retrospectively reviewed for clinicopathological variables, surgical management and outcome. Tumours were considered typical and atypical based on histological features. The mean age at presentation was 46 years (range 11-69). Overall survival in the group of typical carcinoids was 96%, and 67% in the group of atypical carcinoids.
