Abstract
Pulmonary carcinoid tumours are well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours with indolent behaviour; complete resection offers long-term survival. When centrally located, these tumours can be treated with lung-sparing procedures. We present a case of a centrally located typical carcinoid tumour treated with a minimally invasive, right upper lobe sleeve lobectomy using a single port.Entities:
