Özet

Objective: Lung carcinoids represent a small portion of all lung tumors and about 1%-5% are associated with ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion, representing 1%-10% of Cushing's syndrome. They occur both sporadically and rarely in association with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1. MEN1 variations were detected in approximately 16% of sporadic cases with seldom reports about disease prognosis. This study aimed to identify MEN1 variants in our cohort of sporadic lung carcinoids to associate with disease outcome following surgery.
