Lung neuroendocrine tumor. A case report

Background: Lung neuroendocrine tumors are a small group of neoplasms that arise from specialized, peptide and amine-producing cells, specifically from bronchial Kulchitsky cells. They are clinically relevant because they are steadily increasing year by year and they remain poorly understood by clinicians. We detailed a case of a 46-year-old male with a lung neuroendocrine tumor who underwent a right middle pulmonary lobe resection with favorable clinical outcomes, focusing on the diagnostic pathway and surgical management. Keywords: Neuroendocrine lung tumor (LNET), Lung Tumor, Lobectomy, Kulchitsky cells.
