Typical carcinoid lung tumour
Diagnosis in short

Lung carcinoid. H&E stain.

Synonyms lung carcinoid

LM stippled chromatin, usually nested architecture, no necrosis, low mitotic rate (see below)
LM DDx atypical carcinoid lung tumour, pulmonary carcinoid tumourlet, lung adenocarcinoma
IHC Ki-67 ~2% (0-7%), TTF-1 +ve/-ve, CK7 +ve/-ve, CK20 -ve
Gross well-circumscribed, solid, >=5 mm (definition)
Site lung - see lung tumours

Syndromes diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia

Symptoms +/-cough, +/-hemoptysis
Prevalence not common
Radiology usually central (85% of cases), well-circumscribed, solid
Prognosis benign
Clin. DDx other lung tumours, lung metastases (esp. when multiple)
Treatment excision to exclude other types of lung tumours & treat symptoms

Typical carcinoid lung tumour, also lung carcinoid and carcinoid tumour of the lung, is a benign lung tumour, that is excised to exclude malignancy.

General

Presentation:[6]

  • Cough.
  • Hemoptysis.

Treatment:

  • Surgical resection.[7]

Gross

  • Well-circumscribed, solid.
  • Location - central airways (85%), remainder peripheral.[8]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Nests of cells.
    • Stippled chromatin.
    • Moderate cytoplasm.
  • No necrosis.
  • Low mitotic rate.
  • Size criterion: >= 5 mm.[9][10]

DDx:

IHC

Proliferation:

Neuroendocrine markers:[13]

  • Chromogranin A +ve.
  • Synaptophysin +ve.
  • CD56 +ve.

Others:

  • TTF-1 +ve/-ve (11 +ve of 16 cases[14]).
  • CK7 +ve/-ve (10 +ve of 16 cases[14]).
  • CK20 -ve (0 +ve of 16 cases[14]).
