Carcinoid tumours have been reported in a wide range of organs but most frequently involve the gastrointestinal tract. Many of these carcinoid tumours are associated with metachronous and synchronous lesions of another histological type. Primary carcinoid tumours of the different organ in the same patient is rare. In this paper, the authors present a case with synchronous carcinoid tumour of the small intestine and appendix in the same patient.
类癌肿瘤在多种器官中均有报道，但最常累及胃肠道。许多这类类癌肿瘤与另一组织学类型的异时性和同时性病变相关。同一患者不同器官的原发性类癌肿瘤罕见。在本文中，作者报道了一例同一患者同时发生小肠和阑尾类癌肿瘤的病例。
