90Y-Edotreotide for Metastatic Carcinoid Refractory to Octreotide
90Y-edotreotide therapy improved symptoms and survival in patients with progressive metastatic carcinoid tumors and carcinoid syndrome refractory to octreotide. Access this article » ...
Primary hepatic carcinoid tumor in children
Journal Content Primary carcinoid tumors of the liver are rare, with fewer than 60 cases currently reported in the English literature. We present the evaluation and management of a solid hepatic tumor...
In Brief
Journal Content Carcinoid tumors are neuroendocrine tumors arising from enterochromaffin (EC) and related cells found in epithelial organs throughout the body. EC cells are the most common endocrine cells...
Carcinoid tumors and small-cell carcinomas of the gallbladder and extrahepatic bile ducts: a comparative study based on 221 cases from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program
Primary neuroendocrine tumors of the gallbladder (GB) and extrahepatic biliary ducts (EHBDs) include carcinoid tumors and small-cell carcinomas (SCCs). They are uncommon, and therefore, little is known...
Surgical management of carcinoid tumors metastatic to the spine: Report of three cases
Journal Content BackgroundCarcinoid tumors are rare, slow-growing neuroendocrine tumors that most frequently arise from the gastrointestinal tract or the lungs. Common sites of carcinoid metastases include...
Activity of Sunitinib in Patients With Advanced Neuroendocrine Tumors
Sunitinib appears to be more active against pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors than carcinoid tumors. View this article via PubMed » ...
Targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Advanced Carcinoid Tumor: a Random Assignment Phase II Study of Depot Octreotide With Bevacizumab and Pegylated Interferon Alpha-2b
Bevacizumab can result in tumor responses and altered vascular dynamics in patients with metastatic carcinoid tumors. View this article via PubMed » ...
The neuroendocrine tumors of the lung, 1926-1998: some historical observations
Journal Content Peripheral carcinoidsGmelich and coworkers10 described a case of Kulschitzky-type cells proliferating in the periphery of the lung in association with multiple peripheral carcinoid tumors...
Prognostic value of miR-16 expression in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia relationships to normal and malignant lymphocyte proliferation
Journal Content miR-16, a miRNA involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis regulation, may interfere with either oncogenic or tumor-suppressor pathways and is implicated in leukemogenesis. We then explored...
Bronchial Typical Carcinoid Tumors
Journal Content The current WHO classification of lung tumors recognizes bronchial typical carcinoid as low-grade neuroendocrine tumors. These tumors grow slowly but can metastasize to regional nodes...
Surgical management of carcinoid tumors metastatic to the spine: Report of three cases.
BACKGROUND: Carcinoid tumors are rare, slow-growing neuroendocrine tumors that most frequently arise from the gastrointestinal tract or the lungs. Common sites of carcinoid metastases include lymph nodes,...
Neuroendocrine tumors (carcinoid and neuroendocrine carcinoma) presenting at extra-appendiceal sites in childhood and adolescence.
OBJECTIVE: Epithelial neuroendocrine neoplasms arising outside the appendix are extremely rare in the pediatric population. We reviewed the clinicopathologic characteristics of 13 carcinoid tumors and...
Bronchial typical carcinoid tumors.
The current WHO classification of lung tumors recognizes bronchial typical carcinoid as low-grade neuroendocrine tumors. These tumors grow slowly but can metastasize to regional nodes (4 to 20%) and more...
Carcinoid tumors in the breast.
BACKGROUND: Carcinoid tumors in the breast are rare. Most represent metastases from other primary sites, but commonly are mistaken for primary breast lesions. METHODS: A literature search of the English...
Childhood carcinoid tumors: description of a case series in a Brazilian cancer center.
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Carcinoid tumors are very rare both in children and adults. About 85% of these tumors develop in the gastrointestinal tract. The objective of the present study was to describe our...
An analysis of rare carcinoid tumors: clarifying these clinical conundrums.
Carcinoid tumors are distinct neuroendocrine neoplasms with characteristic histological, clinical, and biological properties. Though commonly associated with the gastrointestinal tract and bronchopulmonary...
Prognostic indicators for carcinoid neuroendocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract.
Factors that determine the clinical course and outcome of patients with gastrointestinal (GI) carcinoid tumors are complex and multifaceted. These include the site of origin within the GI tract, the size...
Scintigraphic detection of carcinoid tumors with a cost effectiveness analysis.
AIM: To evaluate the diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy and the cost-effectiveness of this technique in the detection of gastroenteropancreatic carcinoid tumors and their metastases in comparison with...
Bronchoplastic procedures for central carcinoid tumors: clinical experience.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the short-term and the long-term results of bronchoplastic resections (BR) performed for central carcinoid tumors (CCT). METHODS: Retrospective study of patients who underwent BR...
Updated population-based review of carcinoid tumors.
OBJECTIVE: To determine the population-based incidence, anatomic distribution, and survival rates of gastrointestinal carcinoid tumors. BACKGROUND: Carcinoid tumors arise from neuroendocrine cells and...
