Abstract

Carcinoid tumors are rare malignant neoplasms of the respiratory system. They belong to neuroendocrine tumors with a low degree of (G1, G2) malignancy. Even less common is the primary multiplicity of these tumors in the trachea and bronchi, which can complicate the only radical, surgical treatment. We present an observation of a 75-year-old patient who was able to diagnose a carcinoid of the cervical trachea and left main bronchus in a timely manner, determine the exact localization and prevalence of the tumor, and successfully conduct surgical treatment in 2 stages.
