Abstract
A 77-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of a mass les ion in the left lung. The tumor was pulmonary carcinoid associated wit h sarcoid reactions in the regional lymph nodes and scattered in the r esected lung parenchyma. Pulmonary carcinoid with sarcoid reactions is extremely rare. This appears to be the first case report in which tum or-related sarcoid reactions were studded within the tumor-existing lu ng parenchyma and confirmed not to be within the uninvolved right lung .
