Abstract

Tumors of the small intestine can be fatal from the oncologic point of view. Its quite sporadic incidence and absence of early clinical symptoms lead to its very difficult diagnosis.

Carcinoid stays as the second most often tumor of the small intestine and it is qualified by some authors as semimalignant. The čase report presented is aimed at that issue.
