We report the unique case of a large, nonmetastasizing bronchial carcinoid
tumor that arose within an intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration in a
45-year-old man. The vascular supply to the sequestrated area within the
left lower lobe as well as to the carcinoid tumor originated from atypical
branches of the left gastric artery and the thoracic aorta. A left lower
lobe lobectomy was performed. Histologically, a typical carcinoid tumor
without lymph node metastases was found (T2 N0 M0). Seven years
postoperatively, the patient is without signs of recurrence.
