Abstract:
Large calcium deposits can occur in neuroendocrine tumours of the bronchi and have been observed more frequently with the development of tomodensitometry which is now used for the diagnosis of calcified lung tumours including neuroendocrine tumours. The knowledge of such calcified images should not however mask the possibility of a malignant tumour.
