Abstract
Clinical symptoms of diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH) are common to several other respiratory conditions that are found ubiquitously in the community; being aware of this rare condition will help in reaching a diagnosis in a timelier manner.Several potential treatments are described in the literature including steroid therapy, cytotoxic agents and somatostatin analogues, which despite their efficacy have not been demonstrated in studies; however, a small number of case reports such as this one showed an improvement in symptomatology with this treatment.
