All comersType I or Ir pleuropulmonary blastomaComplete surgical resection of the cystic lesion; adjuvant chemotherapy is optional and registry-guided; germline DICER1 testing for the child and first-degree relatives.94
All comersType II or III pleuropulmonary blastomaNeoadjuvant or adjuvant multi-agent chemotherapy (ifosfamide, vincristine, dactinomycin, doxorubicin) with complete resection; radiotherapy for unresectable residual disease.79
All comersTracheobronchial carcinoid or mucoepidermoid carcinomaBronchoscopic assessment and parenchyma-sparing surgical resection (sleeve resection); systemic therapy rarely needed.
All comersDICER1 carriersSurveillance per international consensus: chest imaging in infancy and early childhood, abdominal ultrasound, thyroid ultrasound, and awareness of ovarian and other syndrome tumours.94

Lines and subgroups are parsed from the setting text of each standard-of-care row and can misclassify an unusual phrasing; the row’s own setting is always shown. Guideline chips reflect the NCCN category and ESMO-MCBS grade recorded on the cancer page, checked on its stated date. Not medical advice.
