ABSTRACT

Summary We describe the case of a female patient, 21 years old, complaining of dyspnea attacks and wheezing 2 years ago. Chest radiography showed volume loss in the left lower lobe and ipsilateral retrocardiac triangular basal opacity. CT scan showed an extensive solid mass with apex protruding into the left main and lower lobar bronchi, causing distal atelectasis. Histopathological and immunohistochemical study of transbronchial biopsy of the lesion revealed a typical carcinoid tumor, confirmed after tumor resection with total left pneumectomy.


Resumo Descrevemos um caso de paciente do gênero feminino, 21 anos, apresentando crises de dispneia e sibilância há 2 anos. Radiografia torácica evidenciou perda volumétrica do lobo inferior esquerdo e opacidade triangular basal retrocardíaca ipsilateral. Tomografia computadorizada mostrou formação expansiva sólida com ápice protruindo para o interior dos brônquios principal e lobar inferior esquerdos, promovendo atelectasia distal. Estudos anatomopatológico e imuno-histoquímico após biópsia transbrônquica da lesão diagnosticaram um tumor carcinoide típico, confirmado após ressecção tumoral com pneumectomia total esquerda.
