[Carcinoid of the appendix coexisting with inflammatory tumor of left adnexa. A case report].
A very rare case of appendix carcinoid in a patient operated for left pyosalpinx was presented. On the basis of literature review and the patient's complaints there is no unequivocal evidence indicating relationship between occurrence of carcinoid and pyosalpinx of adnexa in the patient. Check-up examination of appendix is recommended in laparotomy, and appendectomy or hemicolectomy in case of carcinoid suspicion must be performed.
