ABSTRACT
Introduction. Carcinoids tumors of the small bowel represents
only 1 to 2% of gastrointestinal neoplasm.
Case report. This case
is a patient with specific symptoms diagnosed by duodenal biopsy
specimens, treated with complete resection.
Discussion. Small
bowel carcinoid tumors are diagnosed commonly in an advanced
stage due the lack of specific symptoms. There is a direct relation
between tumor size and risk of developing metastasis. Complete
surgical resection is the standard treatment with overall survival rate
at 5 years of 70-90%.
