Eighteen cases of appendiceal carcinoid in children aged 4 to 15 years, 14 of them girls, are reviewed. Most (73%) of the tumors were located in the distal third of the appendix. Tumor size, measured in histologic sections, ranged from 0.1 to 1.2 cm. In three cases the tumor had invaded the mesoappendix. No metastases were found. Standard appendectomy was performed in all cases as the only surgical procedure. The preoperative clinical diagnosis in 15 cases was acute appendicitis, which was histologically confirmed in 53%. At follow-up 2.2 to 29.3 years postoperatively (mean 16.4 years), all the patients were alive and without suspected or verified recurrence of carcinoid.
回顾了18例4至15岁儿童的阑尾类癌病例，其中14例为女孩。大多数肿瘤（73%）位于阑尾的远端三分之一处。在组织学切片中测量的肿瘤大小为0.1至1.2厘米。3例肿瘤侵犯了阑尾系膜。未发现转移。所有病例均仅行标准阑尾切除术作为唯一的手术方式。15例术前临床诊断为急性阑尾炎，其中53%经组织学证实。术后随访2.2至29.3年（平均16.4年），所有患者均存活，且无类癌疑似或确诊复发。
