Carcinoid tumours are the most commonly occurring gut endocrine tumours; they are characterized by relatively slow rate of growth, local spread and distant metastases as compared with other malignant neoplasms. The carcinoid syndrome occurs in less than 10% of patients with carcinoid tumours when liver metastases are present. The combination of symptoms, humoral markers and imaging techniques provide an optimal means for the identification of carcinoid tumours and their metastases.
类癌肿瘤是最常见的肠道内分泌肿瘤；与其他恶性肿瘤相比，它们的特点是生长速度相对较慢、局部扩散和远处转移。当存在肝转移时，类癌综合征发生在不到10%的类癌肿瘤患者中。症状、体液标志物和成像技术的结合为类癌肿瘤及其转移灶的识别提供了最佳手段。
