Typical carcinoid involving the main carina managed with arterial embolisation, endobronchial resection and ablation, ultimately followed by carinal resection

Bronchial carcinoids are uncommon pulmonary tumours, and the gold standard management is surgical resection. Their management is often complicated by their proximal location and propensity to bleed when manipulated. A 22-year-old man was found to have typical carcinoid tumour involving the carina and surgical resection was considered not feasible. We report our experience with a multimodality approach involving arterial embolisation, with subsequent endobronchial resection and ablation. Residual disease was found and managed with definitive carinal resection.
