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.

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and pulmonary carcinoid tumors are traditionally seen as unrelated, with SCLC linked to smoking and characterized by biallelic loss of RB1 and TP53 and rapid progression. Rekhtman and colleagues upend these assumptions by discovering an "atypical" SCLC that arises in nonsmokers with intact RB1 and TP53 loci, chromothripsis-induced oncogene amplifications on extrachromosomal DNA, and frequent synchronous carcinoid tumors.

Background: The study evaluated the safety and adequacy of percutaneous transsternal anterior mediastinal core biopsy.
Methods: All percutaneous computed tomography-guided transsternal mediastinal 18-gauge core biopsies performed at 2 academic centers were retrospectively reviewed. Procedural, clinical, and pathology data were recorded.

Advanced-stage atypical carcinoid tumors are seldom seen in the teenaged population. Comprehensive care, extending beyond mere cancer treatment, is essential. A 16-year-old boy received a diagnosis of a 13-mm nodule in the left S lung segment with signs suggesting interlobar pleural indentation.

A novel molecular classification for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) has been established utilizing the transcription factors achaete-scute homologue 1 (ASCL1), neurogenic differentiation factor 1 (NeuroD1), POU class 2 homeobox 3 (POU2F3), and yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1). This classification was predicated on the transcription factors. Conversely, there is a paucity of information regarding the distribution of these markers in other subtypes of pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors (PNET).
