Figure 12b. Typical bronchial carcinoid in MEN 1. (a) Contrast-enhanced chest CT scan demonstrates an endobronchial carcinoid (straight arrow) within the right main bronchus, a finding that was detected incidentally during pulmonary artery CT for suspected pulmonary embolic disease. Curved arrow indicates a thrombus within the left inferior pulmonary artery. (b) Coronal reformatted CT image of the chest obtained in a different patient shows a small benign carcinoid (arrow) within the left upper lobe adjacent to a bronchus. (c) On 111In-octreotide scintigrams obtained in the same patient as in b, the tumor demonstrates increased radiotracer uptake.
