Abstract

Lung primary tumors are bizarre in pediatrics. Among them, carcinoid bronchial tumor is the most common. The classical manifestation is recurrent respiratory tract infection, but the clinical presentation can be variable. We report the case of a 14 years-old patient with chest pain and respiratory symptoms.
