Abstract
Pneumothorax is a rare clinical manifestation of lung cancer. It can exceptionally reveal a bronchial carcinoid tumor. We present the case of a 27-year-old woman in whom recurrent pneumothoraxes were the clinical manifestation of a bronchial carcinoid tumor. The interest for chest computed tomography and bronchoscopy to identify etiology of secondary pneumothoraxes will be discussed.
