J Alberti, and M R Grandjean, and J P Grondona, and E May

We present the case of a patient with a Vater's papilla carcinoid tumor treated with total duodenopancreatectomy followed by re-gastrectomy because of a second localization of the tumor in the gastrojejunal anastomoses. The patient remains asymptomatic after 3 years and 6 months survival. Digestive carcinoid tumors are described, analyzing their physiopathologic, clinical and prognostic aspects, having done a bibliographic revision of the item.

D002276 Carcinoid Tumor A usually small, slow-growing neoplasm composed of islands of rounded, oxyphilic, or spindle-shaped cells of medium size, with moderately small vesicular nuclei, and covered by intact mucosa with a yellow cut surface. The tumor can occur anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract (and in the lungs and other sites); approximately 90% arise in the appendix. It is now established that these tumors are of neuroendocrine origin and derive from a primitive stem cell.
