| Popis: | A patient is presented with carcinoid syndrome due to a pancreatic tumor. Histologically the tumor resembled a carcinoid, adenocarcinoma and islet cell carcinoma, depending upon the area examined. A review of the literature uncovered similar instances of confusion. By correlating the clinical, biochemical, histochemical and pathological findings, we conclude that our patient's tumor was a primary pancreatic carcinoid. |
