A case report of a patient with peripheral bronchial carcinoid is presented. The tumor cells contained characteristic neurosecretory granules, filopodia and microvilli. Some cells contained both neurosecretory granules and the granular variant of melanosome. We suggest that the demonstration of melanosomes does not necessarily confirm the diagnosis of melanoma and that melanin be added to the long list of substances contained in carcinoid tumors.
本文报告一例周围型支气管类癌患者。肿瘤细胞含有特征性神经分泌颗粒、丝状伪足和微绒毛。一些细胞同时含有神经分泌颗粒和黑素小体的颗粒变体。我们认为黑素小体的存在不一定能确诊黑色素瘤，且黑色素应被列入类癌肿瘤所含物质的长长的清单中。
