Atypical carcinoid with multiple central airway metastases: A case report

A 51-year-old man was found to have multiple polypoid tracheal and bilateral main bronchial tumors during postoperative follow-up of atypical carcinoid. He underwent transtracheal biopsy, and was diagnosed as having central airway metastases of the atypical carcinoid. He underwent chemotherapy, but...
