2 FIGURE 1 Histopathological evaluation of the tumor after upper right lobectomy showed the presence of neoplastic cells with abundant, eosinophilic cytoplasms and vesicular nuclei, slight atypia, and sparse mitotic figures (<2/10 HPF).

3 FIGURE 2 Histopathological evaluation of multiple bronchoscopic biopsies revealed multiple subepithelial neuroendocrine glandular proliferations with nests, cords, and pseudoglandular structures composed of tumor cells with abundant cytoplasms.
