Bronchial Carcinoid Tumors

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1984
Forty-six patients with bronchial carcinoid tumors were operated on over a 37-year period. The results were reviewed with special reference to presenting complaint, histological diagnosis, location of the tumor, lymphatic involvement, and type of surgical resection. Age at operation ranged from 9 to 86 years (mean, 43.6 years). Presenting symptoms were

Retrorectal Carcinoid Tumor

Southern Medical Journal, 1999
Retrorectal masses comprise a varied group of rarely encountered tumors. We present the case of a 42-year-old white woman with a retrorectal carcinoid tumor treated by abdominosacral resection. Diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are discussed.

Thymic carcinoid tumor

The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
In this report on 3 cases of thymic carcinoid, tumors recurred in 2 patients not undergoing lymph node dissection. We review 47 cases of this disease taken from the Japanese literature, and discuss surgical procedures for reducing recurrence. In 9 of 20 cases of recurrence in encapsulated thymic carcinoid, lymph nodes were not dissected in eight ...

Carcinoid Tumors

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2009
Carcinoid tumors, which arise from the enterochromaffin cells of the gastrointestinal tract, encompass a diverse group of neoplasms. Once thought to be "carcinoma-like," these neoplasms exhibit a biologic behavior that varies from an indolent, benign course to an aggressive, rapidly progressive, and deadly disease.

Pulmonary carcinoid tumors

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
Carcinoid tumors of the lung are an uncommon group of neoplasms of neuroendocrine origin. Pulmonary carcinoid tumors are typically benign and slow growing. However, more aggressive subtypes may develop early nodal and distant metastases. Although several histologic classification strategies have been proposed to distinguish benign from more aggressive ...

Bronchial Carcinoid Tumors

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1993
Bronchial carcinoid tumors, termed (incorrectly) "bronchial adenomas" in the past, are uncommon pulmonary neoplasms. These tumors are currently classified as neuroendocrine in origin because of their potential to form and sometimes secrete a variety of chemical substances.

Ureteral carcinoid tumor

International Journal of Urology, 2006
Abstract  Most ureteral tumors are transitional cell neoplasms. Neuroendocrine tumors of the genitourinary tract are extremely rare. To our knowledge, only one ureteral carcinoid tumor has been reported before. We report a second case of ureteral carcinoid tumor found in a 70‐year‐old female.

Carcinoid tumor and carcinoid syndrome

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2003
Carcinoid tumors secrete many different types of substances (e.g. serotonin, bradykinin) that may produce potentially fatal intraoperative reactions such as hypotension and bronchoconstriction. The most effective treatment for the deleterious cardiovascular and pulmonary effects of serotonin and bradykinin is octreotide, a somatostatin analogue ...

GENITOURINARY CARCINOID TUMORS: INITIAL REPORT OF URETERAL CARCINOID TUMOR

Journal of Urology, 2000
Carcinoid tumor is a rare malignant lesion that is poorly understood. The term karzinoid was initially used by Oberndorfer in 1907 to describe a tumor that resembled adenocarcinoma but behaved in a more benign fashion. We know now that such benign behavior may not be the case.
