title: [Report of 2 cases of pleural recurrences of surgically treated bronchogenic carcinoids. Diagnostic and therapeutic problems].
abstract: Recurrence after surgery for bronchial carcinoid tumors is very uncommon in cases of typical tumors and occasionally seen in cases of atypical tumors. We observed two cases of recurrence in an unusual location, the pleura. Somatostatin analog and MIBG scinigrams were useful for diagnosis. Treatment required surgical excision of the relapsing tumor, cytoreductive hepatic surgery or hepatic arterial chemoembolization for liver metastases, chemotherapy, interferon, radionuclide therapy, and somatostatin analogs for carcinoid syndrome.
