title: [Carcinoid tumor in Meckel's diverticulum].
abstract: The accidental finding of a carcinoid tumour in Meckel's diverticulum, a very uncommon event, triggered a physiopathological and clinical analysis of this very interesting but very rare association. The value of systematic identification and removal of the diverticulum during laparotomy is underlined.
