[Carcinoids--personal experience with surgical therapy].
The authors retrospectively studied a group of 8 patients in the period of 7 years (1990-1997). Most frequent surgical procedure performed was appendectomy (4 cases), right-sided hemicolectomy (2 cases), gastric resection (1 case) and small intestine resection (1 case). The most frequent side of carcinoid localization was appendix followed by small intestine. In 3 cases the tumours were macroscopically detectable, the remaining only histologically. Patients were without clinical manifestations of carcinoid syndrome. (Tab. 1, Ref. 9.)
