title: [Therapy of metastasizing carcinoid tumor].
abstract: Carcinoids are tumors producing excessive amounts of serotonin. The authors briefly characterize the possibilities of diagnosis. The case of a 43-year-old patient with a multifold carcinoid of the ileum with metastases in the liver is used for the description of the therapy strategy. They summarize the current opinions on the therapy of this disease. (Tab, 1, Fig. 4, Ref. 14.)
