Ultrasound detection of a carcinoid tumor

Abstract

The intraluminal component of symptomatic malignant carcinoid tumors of the small bowel is typically small relative to the extension in the mesentery, and barium examinations are occasionally normal. This case report illustrates the diagnostic value of abdominal ultrasonography in the detection of extraluminal component of a carcinoid tumor.
