Zusammenfassung
Periphere spindelzellige Karzinoide sind eine sehr seltene histologische Variante der pulmonalen Karzinoide, die wahrscheinlich eine unreifere und daher häufiger metastasierende Tumortype darstellen. Da es sich bei den Karzinoiden um «semimaligne» Tumore handelt, deren biologisches Verhalten mit der pathohistologischen Morphologie oft nicht übereinstimmt, ist die Resektion wie bei einem Karzinom zu fordern.
Bei unserer Patientin waren keine Metastasen und keine Anzeichen eines Karzinoidsyndroms festzustellen, der Tumor wurde durch Lobektomie entfernt.
Summary
Peripheral spindle cell carcinoid tumors of the lung are very rare, probably showing an increased tendency to metastasize. As the usual histologic criteria of malignancy cannot be applied to carcinoids, these tumors should be resected like carcinomas.
Our patient was asymptomatic, neither metastases nor a carcinoid syndrome could be found; the tumor was resected by lobectomy.
