An unusually large number (108) of carcinoids was discovered in the ileum of a 63-year-old male. The clustering and size distribution of tumor nodules suggests that the phenomenon reflects mucosal metastasis from a dominant parent tumor rather than multicentric neoplastic foci. A predilection for the antimesenteric mucosa was also observed and may be related to mucosal lymphatic spread of the carcinoid tumor.
在一名63岁男性的回肠中发现了数量异常多(108个)的类癌。肿瘤结节的聚集和大小分布表明,这种现象反映的是来自一个主要原发肿瘤的黏膜转移,而非多中心肿瘤病灶。还观察到肿瘤对系膜对侧黏膜有偏好,这可能与类癌肿瘤的黏膜淋巴扩散有关。
