Three unusual carcinoid tumours of particular radiological interest are described. The first simulated a pulmonary angioma and the other two showed osteoblastic bone deposits, the primaries being in pancreas and rectum respectively.

Gastroenteropancreatic tumours are rare. They compromise a heterogenous class of neoplasm. If there is no hypersecretion syndrome, symptoms may be uncharacteristic and thus diagnosis occurs rather late after the first manifestations of the disease. The most important prognostic parameters are histological classification, the localisation of the primary, the tumour size and stage at diagnosis, and the presence or absence of metachronous or synchronous neoplasia. The article will focus on the importance of each of these parameters for the various treatment options in patients with metastatic disease.

Bronchial adenoma; a clinicopathologic study
1977, Chest
Among 28 patients with bronchial adenomas, 24 adenomas (86 percent) were of the carcinoid type. The 28 bronchial adenomas provided an incidence of 0.6 percent of all primary lung tumors seen in our institutions. There was a slightly greater preponderance of female patients and a greater incidence of the lesion occurring in the right bronchopulmonary tree than the left. Symptoms of bronchial adenoma may exist for many years before the condition is diagnosed, and prolonged survival is recorded, even in the absence of surgical treatment Although pneumonectomy was performed in several patients, lobectomy, bronchoplastic procedures, or sleeve resection of the affected area are generally recommended.
