Abstract:
:A clinically and histopathologically well-documented case of malignant carcinoid tumor (with carcinoid syndrome) is described. The presence of numerous psammoma bodies in metastatic carcinoid tumor deposits, confirmed by histochemical and ultrastructural analyses, represents a heretofore unreported finding.
