Description Synchronous and metachronous metastases significantly diminish the possibility of remission from cancer. Therefore, therapy needs to be highly effective and strictly individualised.

The aim of the case report is to inform about current trends in primary lung carcinoid therapy through a surgeon's and oncologist's point of view.
