Clinical manifestation of neuroendocrine tumor – carcinoid heart disease
Medical alphabet, 2023Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a rare manifestation of the carcinoid syndrome, but eventually occurs in most patients and is a major cause of cardiovascular mortality.

Palliation of Carcinoid Heart Disease
Archives of Surgery, 1987The clinical manifestations of the carcinoid syndrome have been known for 35 years. Median survival in patients with carcinoid syndrome, although dependent on several factors, including the extent of liver metastases, is in the range of four years. In this setting, a frequent cause of death is right-sided cardiac dysfunction. When this occurs, the only

Update in carcinoid heart disease - the heart of the matter
Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 2021Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is a paraneoplastic cardiac manifestation occurring in patients with carcinoid syndrome (CS) and advanced neuroendocrine malignancy. In about 20-40% of patients with CS, chronic exposure to tumor-released circulating vasoactive peptides typically results in right-sided valvular fibrosis leading to valve dysfunction and ...

A53-year-old Indian man developed watery diarrhea. He was treated for inflammatory bowel disease without improvement. Three months before admission, he developed lower extremity edema, which progressed to include massive scrotal edema as well as dyspnea on exertion, orthopnea, and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1984
To the Editor. —We read with interest the case report by Kessler 1 in the August 1983Archivesof a patient with carcinoid heart disease. Kessler stated that "hindgut carcinoids, comprising the descending colon and rectum, frequently metastasized but demonstrated no evidence of endocrine activity." 1(p1615) Exceptions exist on that rule.

A 37-year-old black woman presented with watery diarrhea, facial flushing, and progressive right heart failure. CT-guided biopsy of a liver mass revealed a neuroendocrine tumor. Elevated levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid confirmed the diagnosis of metastatic carcinoid syndrome. A …

Carcinoid Heart Disease: an Update
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2002Carcinoid tumours are a poorly defined collection of lesions, histopathologically indistinguishable from gastroentero-pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours. In this report, we discuss epidemiology and survival, clinical presentation, carcinoid valvular heart disease (CVHD), histopathological considerations and treatment options.Review and update of the ...

Carcinoid heart disease is the collective term for all cardiac manifestations that develop in patients with carcinoid. The cardiac manifestations of carcinoid tumors are attributed to the paraneoplastic effects of vasoactive substances released by the malignant cells.

Although the carcinoid syndrome was first reported during the nineteenth century, it remains a rare entity. Merling described a tumor of the appendix that was probably carcinoid, while Langhans in 1867 documented a case microscopically.1 The theory that the crypt of Lieberkuhn is the origin of this lesion is credited to Lubarsch.
