Carcinoid tumors are slow-growing malignant neoplasms associated with an indolent clinical course. About 60% of such tumors are located within the gastrointestinal tract. Here, we describe the first case, to our knowledge, of a carcinoid tumor of the terminal ileum and a simultaneous ovarian dermoid cyst. A 57-year-old woman was presented with abdominal pain, vomiting, and clinical signs of mechanical bowel obstruction. Radiograph and computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed hydroaeric levels. Laparotomy revealed a mass in the terminal ileum and a right ovarian cystic mass. Right hemicolectomy and right oopherectomy were performed. The histopathological workup showed a carcinoid tumor of the terminal ileum and ovarian dermoid cyst. Small intestinal carcinoid tumor, an uncommon disease, has been reported earlier to coincide with various neoplasms. No association between small intestinal carcinoid tumor and ovarian dermoid cyst has been reported earlier in the English literature.
类癌肿瘤是生长缓慢的恶性肿瘤，与惰性临床病程相关。约 60%的此类肿瘤位于胃肠道内。在此，我们描述首例已知的回肠末端类癌肿瘤和同时存在的卵巢皮样囊肿。一名 57 岁女性因腹痛、呕吐和机械性肠梗阻的临床体征就诊。腹部 X 线和 CT 扫描显示存在气液平面。剖腹探查显示回肠末端有一肿块和右侧卵巢囊性肿块。行右半结肠切除术和右卵巢切除术。组织病理学检查显示回肠末端类癌肿瘤和卵巢皮样囊肿。小肠类癌肿瘤是一种罕见疾病，此前已有报道与各种肿瘤同时存在。在英文文献中，此前尚未报道小肠类癌肿瘤与卵巢皮样囊肿之间存在关联。
