Tumorlets are pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors smaller than 0.5 cm. They are benign and usually asymptomatic. Their diagnosis is important so as to differentiate them from other neuroendocrine pathologies that require therapeutic intervention. We report a case of such entity and a discussion on the subject that can contribute to highlight the importance of diagnosing this entity.
