Carcinoid heart disease: a potentially fatal complication of carcinoid syndrome
BMJ Case Reports, 2023Carcinoid heart disease is a unique and serious cardiac complication of the neuroendocrine tumour that affects the right side of the heart, especially the tricuspid and pulmonic valves, eventually causing right heart failure. We present a middle-aged man

Carcinoid Heart Disease: a Review
Current Oncology Reports, 2021The development of carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a fibrotic complication of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) which is associated with a poor prognosis. This review aims to summarise the clinical features, investigations and management of this condition.CHD can affect up to 50% of NET patients with carcinoid syndrome.

The carcinoid syndrome is usually evident when enterochromaffin (EC) cell-derived neuroendocrine tumors (carcinoids) metastasize to the liver. In addition to carcinoid symptomatology, about 40% of patients exhibit carcinoid heart disease (CHD) with fibrotic endocardial plaques and associated heart valve dysfunction. The mechanism behind CHD development

Carcinoid heart disease remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with carcinoid syndrome and metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. Screening of all patients with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide and transthoracic echocardiography is critical for early detection, as early symptoms and signs have low sensitivity for the ...
