A 33-year-old man with wheezing and haemoptysis was evaluated at the emergency department. At physical examination, diminished breathing was heard over the left lung. Two X-rays were made, an inspiratory and an expiratory one. The expiratory X-ray showed signs of an obstruction of the left main bronchus. The cause was a carcinoïd.
