The authors report their experience in the management of five patients affected by small bowel neoplasms (2 adenocarcinomas, 1 carcinoid tumor, 1 leiomyosarcoma and 1 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma) operated from June '92 to September '93. Diagnostic and therapeutical aspects of this uncommon pathology are discussed.

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.
