Pulmonary carcinoid and pulmonary lymphoma are both rare cancers and are seldom seen together. Cases have been reported of their coexistence in the gastrointestinal tract, but our literature searches only found a single case of their coexistence in the lung. We discuss our case as well as the literature to try to find a connection and explanation for this occurrence.
肺类癌和肺淋巴瘤均为罕见癌症,很少同时出现。有报道称它们在胃肠道中同时存在,但我们在文献检索中仅发现一例同时发生在肺部的病例。我们讨论了我们的病例以及文献,试图为这种情况的发生找到联系和解释。
