Abstract:
:In the past two years two patients with carcinoid tumours have been operated in Chios General Hospital. These two cases gave rise to our review of the literature concerning the therapy and follow-up of colorectal carcinoid tumours. We demonstrate the differences among surgeons concerning the acceptable and relevant indications for a hemicolectomy in appendiceal carcinoids and the prevailing aspects in the therapy of carcinoid of the colon and rectum. Finally we present the imaging techniques and the biochemical examinations that are proven of value and therefore should be used in the post-surgery follow-up.
