A 38-year-old woman was referred to our hospital following the discovery of a right hilar mass on chest radiograph. Retrospectively, a hilar mass could be seen on a chest X-ray which had been obtained 5 years earlier. A coronal dynamic inversion recovery turbo-FLASH gadolinium-enhanced sequence was performed, demonstrating the right lesion which enhanced during the systemic arterial phase indicating an arterial supply from the bronchial arterial circulation. The surgical and pathological findings were a bronchial carcinoid tumor, with foci of bone formation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
