title: [Carcinoid tumor of the ileum with intestinal tuberculosis--report of a case].
abstract: A 65-year-old woman visited our hospital, complaining dizziness and abdominal pain. Positive fecal occur blood and an iron-deficiency anemia were found. An investigation of the GI tract was performed, and enteroclysis revealed three stenotic lesions in the ileum, the most distal one having an irregular edge. A superior mesenteric angiogram showed tumor stain and encasement in the ileal region. On laparotomy, a large tumor and multiple stenosis were found in the ileum. Histological examination of the resected specimen confirmed the diagnosis of a carcinoid tumor and healed tuberculosis of the ileum.
