Carcinoid tumors can present a difficult diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma. Despite their reputation as indolent tumors, they frequently metastasize and can cause significant symptomatology. The only curative therapy remains surgical resection. The prognosis and treatment of carcinoids vary based on location and histology, and therapy must be tailored

Management of Carcinoid Tumors
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2010 Primary bronchopulmonary carcinoids comprise a significant proportion of carcinoid tumors. The clinical presentation allows prediction of the diagnosis and cell type and directs evaluation and treatment. Young age, central tumor, and no nodal enlargement are highly suggestive of typical carcinoid. These patients require no further diagnostic or staging

BACKGROUND Early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) incidence rates (IRs) are rising, according to previous cancer registry analyses. However, analysis of histologic subtypes, including adenocarcinoma (the focus of CRC screening and diagnostic testing) and ...

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2002
Carcinoids are rare endocrine tumors that can develop in several organs in the body. Clinically, patients can have a wide spectrum of signs and symptoms that range from incidental findings of a polyp during endoscopy to the carcinoid syndrome characterized by severe flushing, diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and life-threatening right-sided heart failure.

PURPOSE Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are considered rare tumors and can produce a variety of hormones. In this study, we examined the epidemiology of and prognostic factors for NETs, because a thorough examination of neither had previously been performed.

CARCINOID TUMORS AND THE CARCINOID SYNDROME
Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1969AbstractData are presented on 10 cases of carcinoid tumor; 8 of the tumors were in the gastrointestinal tract and 2 in the lung. Two cases were associated with carcinoid syndrome (flushing attacks, diarrhea, bronchospasm); in one of these with marked symptoms, the 24‐hour excretion of 5 hydroxy indole acetic acid reached 107 mg.On the basis of these ...

A retrospective study of 86 patients with carcinoid tumors was undertaken covering an 18-year period. The most common sites of tumor were the jejunoileum (28 cases), appendix (22), and rectum (16). These were followed by the bronchus, duodenum, colon, and stomach. Three tumors had such wide-spread metastasis that their primary sites of origin could not
