A consecutive series of gastrointestinal carcinoid tumours presenting over a 3-year period at a district general hospital is reported. None were diagnosed at autopsy. Sites of origin from fore-, mid- and hind-gut were all represented. Sixty-three per cent of patients had tumour-related symptoms at presentation. Of these 90% had nodal metastases and 60% had liver metastases. Carcinoid syndrome developed in most patients with liver metastases. The presentation and management of carcinoid tumours is discussed.
