Abstract

Carcinoid is a slowly developing neuroendocrine tumour. It appears with frequency of 1.5/100,000 persons. Usually it is localized in appendix, small intestine, rectum and bronchi. Clinical sings. of carcinoid syndrome develop in only 10% cases of tumour. We present three cases of carcinoid: the first one with evidences of heart insufficiency, the second one with evidences of colon cancer, the third one coexisting with Graves-Basedow disease.
