[Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in a bronchoscopy simulating a carcinoid tumour].
The authors report a case of pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in a 48-year-old man. The bronchoscopy revealed a fragile lingular tumoral formation. The diagnosis was based on the thoracotomy and the histopathological findings. The endoscopic features and the different diagnostic options of pulmonary arteriovenous malformation are discussed.
