[Carcinoid tumors of the rectum. Apropos of 2 cases with metastases].
We are reporting two cases of carcinoid tumors of the rectum treated surgically. In both cases, there were nodes metastases and in one case liver metastases without carcinoid syndrome. Carcinoid tumors of the rectum are rare and usually asymptomatic; metastases are essentially located in the lymph nodes and the liver.
