Abstract

Despite the increase in the incidence of neuroendocrine tumors (NET) in recent decades, the diagnosis of bronchopulmonary NET predominantly occurs in the disseminated form of the disease. The clinical course of small-cell lung cancer is characterized by rapid growth, early lymphogenous and haematogenic metastases, and high sensitivity to pharmacotherapy and radiation treatment, but the results of treatment remain unsatisfactory. This clinical case of successful treatment of disseminated small-cell lung cancer reflects the individuality of tumor sensitivity to combined treatment.
