Bronchial Carcinoid with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Coli - 1 Case
가족성 산종성 대장용종증이 동반된 bronchial carcinoid: 1례
Abstract
Carcinoid tumors can be ubiquitous, but most will originate in four sites: appendix [38%], small intestine[24%], rectum[13%] or bronchus[11.6%]. And bronchial carcinoids are rare, accounting for only 1% to 6% of all primary lung tumors. Familial adenomatous polyposis cali, the most common form of the polyposis syndromes attributable to a genetic defect, is defined by demonstration of at least 100 adenomatous polyps in the large intestine. We experienced a case of typical bronchial carcinoid with familial adenomatous polyposis cali in 23 year old female patient, which was surgically treated by left lower lobectomy.
