Carcinoid tumors are slow-growing tumors noticed in the tracheobronchial tree and pulmonary parenchyma. Generally, these tumors are slow growing with minimum risk of distant metastasis, but the atypical type of carcinoids has greater malignant potential with lower survival rates. The primary and most effective treatment for all pulmonary carcinoid tumors is surgical resection if no contraindications to surgery exist.

Background And Objective: Pulmonary carcinoids (PCs) represent a rare subset of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) within the respiratory tract that exhibit unique characteristics and clinical behaviors. These tumors are currently staged according to the tumor-nodules-metastases (TNM) classification of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which brings their reliability into question. The aim of this study was to assess reliability of the current TNM staging of PCs and explore other relevant prognostic factors of patient outcomes.
